Description
Guide
A quite superb four / five bedroomed - one en suite, Victorian villa, being double fronted and benefiting from three spacious principal living rooms and conservatory overlooking the delightful, sunny gardens and former tennis lawn. Secluded location yet in the heart of this popular market town - within walking distance of town centre shops and schools.
SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
This uniquely located home dates from 1896 exhibiting all the hallmarks of the Arts and Crafts movement. The property is brick faced at the front elevation with sandstone quoins and window and door surrounds. Gables are rendered. The roof is pitched and slated. Sash windows are retained throughout. Being attached, the property dominates a significant site, enjoying virtually a southerly orientation overlooking the generously sized garden which is a delight, and incorporates many matured shrubs, specimen trees and water features.
All of the amenities of the market town of Brampton are walkable within 0.5 miles, yet the property has a genuine feel of a country home. Within Brampton town centre there are a variety of specialist retailers together with general stores, doctors' surgery, dentists, opticians and the like. Secondary education is well catered for through the renowned, nearby William Howard School.
The town centre, being by-passed, offers good communications east via the A69 to Newcastle - Newcastle Airport within one hour's drive. Nine miles west is the border city of Carlisle. Junctions 43 and 44 of the M6/M74 access the north and south by road.
Intercity Virgin rail links serve London and Glasgow/Edinburgh.
The immediate area is one of delightful rural Cumbrian countryside with easy access to many walks and the added appeal of ready access to the World Heritage Site that is the Roman Wall. Further afield are other areas of outstanding natural beauty including the Eden Valley, the Lake District National Park and the Solway coastal region.
