Parcey House and Cottage in the picturesque Patterdale Valley is being auctioned off by Auction House Cumbria on May 21, offering a “rare opportunity” to own a slice of the Cumbrian countryside.
The property is situated on a quiet no-through road in Hartsop, Penrith and built in traditional stone.
Commenting on the property, Colin West, director and auctioneer of Auction House Cumbria, said: “Parcey House and Cottage offers easy access to a playground of outdoor activities and a variety of hikes and trails.
“Wherever you wander, you can enjoy 360-degree breath-taking views.
“If you want to get yourself away from traffic jams and concrete jungles, take this chance to buy your forever home with scope to put your own stamp on it.”
Parcey House features exposed beams, wood and slate floors, and built-in fireplaces, which add warmth, character and “cosy factor” to the grade II listed property.
Inside, there are four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a “generous” sunroom, “practical” utility room, kitchen, and rear porch.
The adjoining cottage, which can serve as a snug living space for a guest or extended family, has its own private kitchen, bathroom, and first-floor bedroom with views over the front and rear gardens.
The Hartsop property is said to be “in need of some TLC and updating” but presenting an opportunity for the new owner to add their own personal touch.
Surrounded by an “abundant” garden, the property offers “breath-taking” views over Patterdale Valley at the front and a gently rising hill at the rear.
The location is ideal for those who enjoy outdoor activities, with the lakes of Brothers Water and Ullswater nearby, offering scenic walking routes.
Parcey House and Cottage is also within easy reach of the hiking routes climbing High Street fell, Helvellyn mountain, and Fairfield fell.
The Patterdale property’s location and character make it a potential forever home for those looking to escape city life and immerse themselves in the beauty of the Lake District.
The auction will take place at Auction House Cumbria’s in-room event on May 21, starting at noon at The Halston Hotel, 20-34 Warwick Road, CA1 1AB.
