A LOVELY, welcoming three-bedroom house in the Eden village of Tebay is our featured property this week.

Castle Howe View is for sale with Lancastrian Estates for offers in the region of £284,950.

This stone-built, semi-detached property is located in a thriving community, complete with primary school, café, pub, church, playground and tennis courts, surrounded by open fields and fells.

It’s the ideal location for commuters, with the M6 motorway and the award-winning Tebay Services nearby, and only 12 miles from Kendal and Kirkby Stephen.

Castle Howe View is “very well presented” and offers three reception rooms, a store, kitchen, shower room and utility on the ground floor; and three bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor.

The outside space is described as “truly magnificent” with a spacious back garden, paved patio for sitting out, a detached stone-built outbuilding, ample off-road parking and a detached double garage.

A stone-flagged footpath and front forecourt garden lead to a timber front door, which opens into the dining room with its central brick fireplace, multi-fuel fire and stone-flagged hearth. The second reception room overlooks the front and would be ideal as a study, while the impressive inner hallway has a useful understairs cupboard and leads to the store, with its wall and floor-mounted units and laminate flooring.

Bespoke, fitted wooden units and worktops give a welcoming feel to the kitchen, where an oil-fired Stanley range supplies the hot water, heating and cooking. An attractive, exposed stone wall and stone flooring give a traditional, characterful feel, and there is plumbing for a dishwasher.

The lounge feels light and airy thanks to its vaulted ceiling and Velux skylights. A central black cast multi-fuel fire is set on a stone plinth with a stone-flagged back, and there is exposed wood flooring and double-glazed doors to the garden.

A very handy utility room is equipped with cupboards and worktops, a sink, plumbing for a washing machine, space for a tumble dryer, and a Velux skylight.

Completing the ground floor is a tiled shower room featuring a corner quadrant shower with sliding doors, wall-hung basin with chrome taps, toilet, heated towel rail, and Velux skylight.

Upstairs, the first two bedrooms are both doubles and overlook the front. The third, also a double, looks over the back of the house and houses the cylinder airing cupboard. The four-piece bathroom has a shower cubicle, bath, pedestal basin, toilet and heated towel rail, with tiled walls and floor.

Castle Howe View’s large back garden has a lovely stone paved seating area, as well as pathways, a lawn and planted borders. A large garden area at the back has great potential for development, subject to planning consent, and there is a store housing the oil tank, a double garage and ample off-road parking.
