Description

"

Nestled in the serene hamlet of Irton, within the heart of the Lake District National Park, this is a rare opportunity to own a characterful detached cottage set amidst approximately 1.8 acres of enchanting grounds. This idyllic residence seamlessly blends historical charm with modern comforts, making it an ideal sanctuary for those seeking tranquility and natural beauty.

Originally part of the prestigious Irton Hall estate, the property carries a rich heritage dating back to the late 1800s. The Irton family, notable residents of the area, held the manor from the 13th century until the late 19th century. The estate s storied past, with associations with historical figures like Oliver Cromwell and King Henry VI adds a layer of historical depth to the property s enduring appeal.

Upon entering the cottage, you re welcomed by a handcrafted solid wood kitchen adorned with traditional tiled flooring, reflecting the bespoke and quirky charm of the home. To the left of the kitchen, a spacious reception room features a multi fuel stove and large windows that flood the space with natural light perfectly adaptable as a third bedroom if desired. To the right, another generous reception room boasts an open fireplace and a secondary entrance, offering versatility and warmth. Ascend the quaint cottage stairs to discover two substantial double bedrooms, each graced with large windows and original wooden flooring. The bathroom, while awaiting modern touches, offers ample space to realise your vision.

The property s outdoor space is truly exceptional. A delightful walled courtyard adjacent to the cottage creates a sheltered microclimate, ideal for cultivating a variety of plants and enjoying the sun throughout the day. Opposite the main residence, robust stone outbuildings present opportunities for storage or potential development STPP . The expansive grounds, covering approximately 1.8 acres, include a mixture of recreational land and enchanting woodland. A gentle descent leads to a meadow, perfect for a hobby farm, orchard, camping or serene retreat. Beyond lies a woodland enclave, home to mature beech, birch, oak, sycamore, and fir trees, all nestled around a natural stone outcrop.

2 Mount Pleasant is more than a residence; it s a harmonious blend of history, nature, and potential. Whether you envision a peaceful retreat, a family home, or a base to explore the Lake District s wonders, this property offers a unique opportunity to embrace a lifestyle where tradition and tranquility converge.
