Beautifully presented and full of character, this 18th century red sandstone cottage sits in the desirable Eden Valley village of Melkinthorpe, close to Penrith and the Lake District National Park. This property offers exceptional charm and versatile accommodation, with excellent potential for holiday letting, second home or a family home in a superb location.

Internally, presented to an immaculate standard, there is a bespoke kitchen with a range of country-style oak cabinets and modern appliances leading into the heart of the home, where there is a characterful lounge with an open fire and an exposed stone fireplace. Complemented by an alcove perfect for a dining area and practical storage beneath the stairs. A staircase from the entrance hall leads to the first floor, where there are two bedrooms (one double and one twin) and a flexible third room that could serve as a study, a working-from-home space, or a dressing room
ursery, completed by a modern family bathroom with a shower over the bath. All rooms are bright and airy and there is plenty of storage space throughout.

Externally, the front features a pretty cottage-style garden with seating area and established shrubs, while to the rear there is a cobbled parking area and access to two stone outbuildings—one currently split in to two rooms and used as a utility room/storage and another as a games room, and the third offering additional flexible space, ideal for garden storage.

Location
Ideally located close to the Lake District National Park and the Eden Valley, once you discover this area, you will appreciate that you have the best of both worlds; quickly reached from the M6 (15 minutes) and roughly 20 minutes to Penrith or Pooley Bridge. Here you can avoid the crowds and enjoy the rural charm of village life. The Eden Valley is a relatively undiscovered gem with great, easy walks to include riverside rambles through beautiful areas and some really excellent village pubs, or perhaps venture to the higher fells of the North Pennines, which are easy to reach.
