Mousegill is a charming, detached property set within seven acres of land, located in the peaceful hamlet of Barras, near Kirkby Stephen.

Barras is a charming and picturesque hamlet located on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The nearby market town of Kirkby Stephen, approximately 7 miles away, offers a comprehensive range of amenities, including primary and secondary schools, a supermarket, a doctor s surgery, a train station, cafes, and more. The property also benefits from convenient access to major road networks, including the M6, A66, and A1, providing excellent connections to surrounding towns and cities.

Believed to date back to the 1800s, Mousegill was originally a barn and takes its name from the beck that flows from the top of the fell. The property was sympathetically converted in the late 1990s, preserving many original character features, including numerous windows that flood the space with natural light.

The accommodation is generously proportioned and offers a highly functional layout. The ground floor comprises a spacious and welcoming hallway, featuring an impressive staircase. Off the hallway, there is a cosy living room with a gas fire and dual aspect windows. Additionally, the property boasts a formal dining room, a well equipped kitchen diner, and a separate utility room. Upstairs, the property offers three generously sized double bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en suite shower room. A spacious family bathroom and a large hallway, which could easily be adapted into a home office, complete the upper floor.

Externally, the property is surrounded by extensive gardens, predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by fencing. The seven acres of land are located primarily to the north and east of Mousegill, and are divided into various paddocks, which have been used for equestrian purposes. There is also a small woodland area, planted in 2000, which contains a log cabin.

To the rear of the property, there is a substantial parking area with space for several vehicles, as well as a large stable block featuring three separate stables, a workshop, a tool shed, and a machinery shed.

Mousegill presents a unique opportunity to acquire a smallholding in a truly spectacular yet easily accessible location.
