Set within generous landscaped gardens in the quiet village of Leasgill, this five bedroom home offers space, warmth and refined character at every turn. Original stonework, exposed beams and thoughtful modern finishes create a sense of depth and authenticity, while the layout flows with an ease that suits both everyday life and relaxed entertaining.

A welcoming hallway sets the tone, filled with natural light and finished with warm wooden flooring. Decorative detailing hints at the home's long history, while the arrangement of rooms offers a practical and intuitive sense of movement. Two elegant reception rooms sit to one side, connected yet subtly zoned to create versatility. The living room enjoys dual aspect windows that draw in gentle daylight, complemented by period alcove cupboards and a vertical radiator that adds a modern touch. The adjoining sitting room feels intimate and peaceful, elevated slightly to offer lovely views over the gardens.

Across the hall, the dining room presents an atmospheric space for gatherings. A striking stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove brings depth and texture, balanced by the dark flagstone flooring that continues seamlessly into the kitchen. A window seat frames garden views, creating a charming corner for morning coffee or an evening book. This is a room designed for both lively conversation and quiet moments, held within walls that speak softly of the home's past.

The bespoke handmade kitchen forms the vibrant heart of Leasgill House. Stone flags pair beautifully with black granite work surfaces and a central island that doubles as a breakfast bar. The range cooker sits within a handsome recess, surrounded by cabinetry crafted with durability and elegance in mind. From here, french doors open onto the terrace, allowing the garden to become a natural extension of the living space during the warmer months. It is a kitchen that invites both creativity and connection, offering room to prepare meals while still feeling part of the occasion.
A lower ground floor adds a surprising layer of practicality. The utility room features exposed beams, a butler's sink and generous space for appliances, with ample storage tucked beneath the stairs. Around the corner, a quiet and atmospheric area serves as a wine cellar, perfectly suited to collectors or those who enjoy hosting.

Upstairs, three large bedrooms await. The principal bedroom offers a restful sanctuary with two sash windows and built-in storage. Its en-suite continues the home's blend of classic and contemporary design, featuring a monochrome palette, rainfall shower and high-cistern WC. The second bedroom enjoys views towards the Lakeland fells, allowing each morning to begin with a sense of calm and natural beauty.

The landing is a feature in itself. Exposed stonework adds rich texture, and two picture windows illuminate the staircase with soft light, creating inviting reading nooks that overlook the garden and fields beyond.

The family bathroom is both luxurious and atmospheric, with a freestanding roll-top bath, oversized tiles with underfloor heating and a generously sized walk-in shower. A vanity unit in warm wood and an exposed stone wall soften the space, creating a spa-like environment that encourages slow, unhurried evenings.
On the second floor. Bedrooms four and five mirror one another in scale and charm, each benefiting from dual aspect views, exposed beams, and stonework. These upper rooms feel peaceful and characterful, ideal for guests, growing children or creative studio spaces.

Flooded with light from two Velux windows, this space enjoys far-reaching views towards the fells. it would make a wonderful children's den, home office or quiet retreat. Eaves storage and original flooring enhance both function and charm.

Outside, the gardens extend the sense of privacy and tranquillity. Mature trees, shrubs and planting line the generous lawn, while a raised terrace offers views that stretch across fields. Two outbuildings sit nearby, adding useful storage or creative potential. The carp pond brings a gentle, reflective quality to the garden, and a sheltered pergola entwined with grapevines creates an enchanting setting for year-round dining. For larger gatherings or simple relaxation, this is a space that encourages time spent outdoors. Electric gates open to a spacious driveway with parking for several vehicles, and a double garage provides further practicality.
