Set in a desirable and peaceful position and enjoying a striking first impression, welcome to Number One Farlam Cottage - a beautifully presented three bedroom two bathroom character cottage. QUOTE JS1579 The property is approached via a smart composite entrance door, framed by a glazed frontage that immediately fills the hallway with natural light. From the moment you arrive, the property’s stunning contemporary stone-built extension with full-height glazing and statement picture windows creates an impressive and welcoming presence, complemented by a paved terrace and soft exterior lighting which enhances the home’s character and kerb appeal. Upon entering, you are welcomed into a bright entrance hallway before a door leads through into the true heart of the home – a stunning open-plan kitchen diner with a central island. The kitchen is fitted with a range of integrated appliances and further benefits from the added charm and practicality of a Rayburn, combining modern convenience with traditional cottage character. Aesthetically and functionally, this space is the centrepiece of the property and delivers a remarkable first impression, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. From the kitchen, the property flows seamlessly into the impressive rear extension, which now houses a beautiful lounge. Flooded with natural light from Velux-style skylight windows, French doors and a striking full-height statement window to the front, this space feels both contemporary and inviting, while offering lovely outlooks across the surrounding gardens and countryside. The ground floor also benefits from a spacious and modern family bathroom, fitted with both a walk-in shower and a separate bath, providing excellent practicality for family life. A third bedroom is located on the ground floor and offers excellent flexibility; equally suited as a guest bedroom or a rear sitting room, particularly as it features its own multi-fuel log burner, creating a cosy and versatile additional reception space. To the first floor, a bright and welcoming landing leads to two well-proportioned double bedrooms. Both rooms enjoy charming features including sloping ceilings and traditional cottage-style windows, enhancing the character and warmth of the home. The principal bedroom further benefits from its own en-suite facility, while the second bedroom is generous in size and comfortably accommodates bedroom furniture. Externally, the property continues to impress. There is off-road parking to the front, with the driveway gently rising towards the front of the house, allowing you to fully appreciate the property’s attractive and commanding presence. The gardens wrap around the side of the home and are thoughtfully landscaped with a variety of mature plants and shrubs, creating a private and established setting that will appeal to families and keen gardeners alike. This is a truly distinctive and beautifully balanced home, offering a rare blend of character, modern design, flexible living accommodation and an exceptional outdoor setting. Farlam Cottage enjoys a wonderfully peaceful hamlet setting while remaining exceptionally well placed for everyday amenities and countryside living. The property sits within easy reach of the popular market town of Brampton, which offers a wide range of independent shops, cafés, public houses, primary and secondary schooling, a health centre and a well-connected railway station. The wider area is renowned for its natural beauty, with immediate access to scenic walking and cycling routes through rolling countryside and nearby woodland, including the much-loved Gelt Woods and the picturesque Talkin Tarn Country Park. For those who enjoy exploring the region’s rich heritage, the world-famous Hadrian’s Wall is close by, while the surrounding landscapes form part of the stunning North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Despite its tranquil rural position, Farlam Cottages remains highly convenient for commuting and wider travel, with the city of Carlisle only a short drive away, providing extensive shopping, leisure facilities and mainline rail connections. This enviable combination of village charm, open countryside and excellent accessibility makes this property an outstanding location for those seeking a quieter lifestyle without sacrificing convenience. This is a truly spectacular property not to be missed.
