Huntide Farm is a charming former farmstead steeped in rural heritage, previously serving as a riding stables and livery yard. It presents a rare opportunity to craft a unique countryside residence, full of character, potential, and development prospects.

Huntide Farm is a property rich in history, offering a unique blend of traditional charm and exceptional potential. Originally serving as a working farm, it has been home to various agricultural activities over the years, with the buildings once housing a riding stables, livery yard, and riding school approximately 35 years ago. The farm's structures, including barns, stables, and a large haybarn, are steeped in character and have stood the test of time, although some areas now require attention and modernisation. The main residence, which has been sympathetically extended and altered, still retains many period features such as exposed beams, original slate flooring, and stone fireplaces. These elements lend the home a warmth and authenticity that cannot be replicated in new builds.

The property’s expansive gardens, which include a mature orchard with a variety of fruit trees, offer tranquil outdoor space, while the array of outbuildings presents a rare opportunity for restoration and redevelopment. Whether you are looking to create an equestrian facility, a smallholding farm, or perhaps a peaceful country retreat, the potential is vast. The buildings could easily be transformed into stables, workshops, or even converted into additional accommodation (subject to planning permission). The house itself, although in need of updating, offers spacious rooms and the opportunity to modernise and personalise, making it a perfect project for those looking to add their own stamp to a property with considerable history and character. With the right vision, Huntide Farm could be restored to its former glory or reimagined into something entirely new, creating a bespoke rural property with modern comforts while preserving the charm of its past.

Directions
Start on the A590 heading westbound. Follow the A590 for approximately 26 miles toward Swarthmoor and Ulverston. Continue straight at each roundabout, remaining on the A590 throughout: Crooklands Roundabout – pass through, following signs for Barrow/Ulverston. Meathop Roundabout – continue straight. Newby Bridge Roundabout – look for signs to continue on the A590 toward Barrow. Greenodd Roundabout – go straight, keeping left to stay on the A590. Booths Roundabout (near the Booths Supermarket in Ulverston) – proceed straight. Tank Square Roundabout – continue on the A590 toward Swarthmoor. At the final roundabout near Swarthmoor, take the second exit onto Ulverston Road. Continue for approximately 0.5 miles, then turn left onto Carley Lane. Carley Lane becomes Horse Clough Lane, and then transitions into Church Road. After about 1 mile, you’ll pass through the village of Little Urswick. As you're about to leave the village, the road curves to the left. Just before the bend, there is a subtle right-hand turn onto an unnamed road—be sure to approach slowly so you don’t miss it. Take this right turn and follow the road for about 150 yards. Huntide Farm will be on your right.
