An Exceptional Grade II Listed Farmhouse in Whitewell s AONB.
Nestled in the heart of Whitewell s picturesque countryside, this distinguished Grade II listed farmhouse has been sympathetically restored to an exemplary standard. With sweeping views of the surrounding fells, the property seamlessly blends period charm with thoughtful modern enhancements. Handcrafted Secret Drawer cabinetry features throughout the kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms, while original details such as mullioned windows, timber beams, and historic fireplaces are beautifully retained. Set within professionally landscaped gardens with a detached garage and summerhouse, this is a home of rare quality in an idyllic setting.
A traditional timber panelled porch opens into a welcoming entrance, where original stone flag flooring and exposed timbers immediately establish the home s character. A beautifully appointed cloakroom features oak tongue and groove panelling, a marble bowl basin on a bespoke oak vanity unit, and a low level WC. The hallway is fitted with bespoke Secret Drawer cabinetry, including a retractable oak writing table and integrated storage, with views through mullioned and sash windows making it ideal as a study area. Stone flag flooring continues into the inner hallway, flowing through to a practical utility room with fitted shelving, oak block work surfaces, and plumbing for laundry appliances. At the heart of the home lies a striking breakfast kitchen, combining rustic charm with refined functionality. A black enamel Aga is set beneath a timber mantle and mirrored recess, while the full Secret Drawer kitchen includes hand painted pippy oak cabinetry, Silestone surfaces, a double Belfast sink with timber drainers, and a tall larder and fridge freezer. Dual aspect windows and a stable door invite both natural light and garden access. The sitting room is centred around a traditional stone fireplace with handmade brick back and Clearview multi fuel stove. Original beams and stone corbels accent the ceiling, while oak parquet flooring and a window seat in the mullioned window add further warmth. A second reception room offers remarkable period detail, with a carved Inglenook fireplace dated 1718, complete with cast iron stove. Sash and mullioned windows, oak parquet flooring, and exposed beams enhance the room s historic charm, with direct access to the rear gardens.
A hand painted staircase with matching timber panelling rises to a bright landing with beamed ceilings and lovely front facing views.
