Description

"Driving through the Eden Valley, you are greeted with tree lined lanes that dapple light and lush rolling fields that sit at the feet of the majestic Pennine mountains. Bursts of colour through early spring until late summer pop in the green landscape and delights the senses.
Murton Old Farm is a superb three bedroom semi detached home nestled at the foot of the majestic Pennines, in the peaceful and picturesque village of Murton, just a short drive from the historic market town of Appleby in Westmorland.
Steeped in history and full of character, this delightful home dates back to the 1600s and beautifully blends its heritage with homely warmth. From the moment you arrive, you ll be charmed by the traditional stone fa ade and captivated by the breathtaking Pennine fell views right from your doorstep; a truly serene and timeless setting.
The front of the property enjoys a sunny south facing aspect, and to the side, a west facing patio offers the perfect spot to unwind with an evening drink, catching the last rays of sunshine as the day draws to a close.
Welcome Home to Murton Old Farm
Park your car on the private driveway close to the woodstore and make your way up to the sandstone steps to the front door.
As you enter and kick off your muddy boots, you are welcomed into a light and inviting entrance vestibule, where the gorgeous stone flagged floor sets the tone with a nod to the home s rich past. A glass paned door leads you into the heart of the home; the generously sized kitchen diner.
This spacious kitchen is full of rustic charm, with exposed beams and ample room for a family dining table; perfect for cosy suppers and long, lazy breakfasts. Fitted with a range of traditional cabinetry, roll top work surfaces, and a tiled splashback, the kitchen also offers space for all essential appliances, including an electric cooker, dishwasher, and washing machine. A large side window fills the space with natural light, enhancing the warm, welcoming feel.
Flowing through to the living room, you ll find a characterful and calming retreat. Two steps lead down into this generous space, where three windows one south facing and two west facing; flood the room with natural light throughout the day. The light here is quite exceptional, creating a bright and uplifting atmosphere in every season. Exposed beams, a multi fuel stove set into a feature fireplace, and warm toned wood effect flooring add comfort and charm in equal measure. There s also a handy under stairs storage cupboard for convenience.

The first floor landing gives access to three well proportioned double bedrooms and a family bathroom. A loft hatch and large storage cupboard housing the water cylinder offer additional practical features.
Bedroom one is a lovely light filled space with dual aspect windows to the front and side, creating a calm and airy atmosphere. Soft carpeting underfoot and a wall mounted heater ensure year round comfort.
Bedroom two also overlooks the front of the property and includes a built in storage cupboard; ideal for stowing away linen or personal belongings. This room, too, is tastefully decorated and carpeted, offering a peaceful place to unwind.
Bedroom three, another double, features a front facing window and is perfect for a guest room, home office, or child s bedroom, with clean lines and a serene feel.
The family bathroom has been thoughtfully finished with fully tiled walls and a Velux roof window that fills the room with natural light.

A heated towel rail and lino flooring complete the room, providing both function and comfort.
