Excellent Kirkby Stephen Cottage

Property Description

S73403 is a deceptively spacious and fabulously quirky holiday home, which provides a different kind of accommodation in the quiet village of Kelleth, near the market town of Kirkby Stephen. From the rustic and industrial features, to the prominent grand piano in the living room, this property truly is magnificent.

S73403 is part of Old Kelleth Hall, and originally was used as a storage barn. The property first underwent a total restoration in 2012, when the owner began to turn the building into something a little more interesting. They recycled an old Georgian staircase, which was lying forlorn in a reclamation yard and added corrugated tin along the staircase with some overhead lights, giving this property a sense of uniqueness. The property is definitely an original, and includes many of the paintings done by the owner's late father.
The house is also in a wonderful location and within an easy, scenic drive of the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales. The traditional and interesting market town of Kirkby Stephen has a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants, and is close to the famous Settle/Carlisle railway. Ideally placed for exploring the delights of both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales, this property is perfect for guests who like to explore. In less than 30 minutes' drive, visitors can explore Ullswater and the Eastern Lakes, Swaledale, Wensleydale, along with the popular towns of Keswick, Kendal and Hawes. Shop 3 miles, pub 1 mile and restaurant 4½ miles.
