Borrowdale House is a charming historic four bedroom farmhouse with an adjoining converted barn and self-contained one bedroom holiday cottage, set in its own grounds with an adjoining paddock of about two acres. It offers idyllic rural living with established letting income from two sources. It is part of the scattered small community of North Stainmore and enjoys a quiet and magnificent setting with tremendous panoramic views over the surrounding open countryside and a southerly aspect. It is a short distance from the A66, the major east-west route.
Borrowdale House and Borrowdale Cottage are operated as rural retreat holiday lettings with English Country Cottages and Kitty’s Barn has provided accommodation for the current owners. Borrowdale House is a fine family house with many period character and features, offering two sitting rooms, kitchen and adjacent dining room. There are four bedrooms, a small shower room and family bathroom. There is an outside garage and store.
Borrowdale Cottage is on one level with a double bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchen. It has its own outside garden space and parking.
Kitty’s Barn is configured at the moment to suit the current owner’s requirements, namely with an openplan apartment on the first floor, with kitchen and separate bathroom. On the ground floor there are two large rooms currently a utility room and store, which would lend themselves to conversion to create a large dwelling together with a downstairs cloakroom and further storage areas.
