Low Fold Farm, Troutbeck, LA23 1PF

Description A historic and utterly charming former farmhouse, this property is right in the heart of the picturesque village of Troutbeck, and it's difficult to fail to get a fabulous view from any window.

From the first moment you enter, it's obvious the current owners have been careful custodians of the house, immaculately presenting and lovingly preserving the traditional features that make this property so wonderful.

The farmhouse kitchen is complete with stone flagged floor, a small utility off and a boiler cupboard.

The dining room is a step back in time with exposed beams, traditional oak partitioning, an original court cabinet and traditional oven fireplace.

The snug also doubles as bedroom 4 and has a door into the lovely garden. Access from the dining room leads to a small cellar which also has an internal little well - a real luxury in 1615!

A most interesting staircase leads to the first floor with the main drawing room located here.

A truly enchanting room with a high vaulted ceiling showing the exposed beams and trusses, substantial fireplace with wood burning stove and rare oriel window.

There is also an unobstructed view to Applethwaite and the neighbouring fells. Bedroom 1 with en-suite bathroom, bedroom 2 and family shower room are also on this floor.

Each room in the house has its own traditional features, too numerous to mention each one. Attached is Granary Cottage, presumably converted from an old granary store many years ago.

This is now run as a very successful, 1 bedroom, holiday let cottage. Access to the cottage is via the side of old stone external steps into the living room with kitchen area.

A relatively narrow staircase leads down to the bedroom on the ground floor with ensuite shower room.

Outside, the grounds amount to 0.2 acres - more than ample for a secluded garden, mainly laid to lawn with a gravel seating area and many mature shrubs including azaleas and rhododendron.

It is a truly wonderful place to sit, relax and enjoy the surrounding scenery. The gravel drive continues past a well stocked rockery and down to a paved area with further views across the valley.

There is a timber shed in disrepair and a drive offering plenty of parking space. Outside is a gated, flagged yard, the Spinnery next door has pedestrian rights of access.

At the other end of the drive there is a second gate leading to Bridge Lane, via the tarmac drive of the adjacent property.

The strip of land between the top of Green Gate and Low Fold Farm boundary wall belongs to the property and is stocked with mature plants.

Low Fold Farm and Granary Cottage are truly a rare find in a most beautiful location in the heart of the picturesque village of Troutbeck.

It is a conservation area to protect its natural heritage, with a village shop conveniently opposite the property. A short drive will take you to Ambleside or Windermere.

Having sought-after outside space and dramatic views all year round, this is undoubtedly a fabulous opportunity to own a unique second home or permanent residence with an additional income from letting Granary Cottage.
