The Property
Threapland Moss is a beautiful and substantial country house set in wonderful
private gardens and grounds with a portfolio of three successful holiday let
cottages and equestrian facilities, extending in all to around 1. 79 acres. The
property currently operates as a superb lifestyle and business opportunity
with the impressive main house as a gorgeous private family home and the
cottages delivering an income stream as established self - catering
accommodation. The cottages can also be used for residential purposes. The
stunning location offers a wealth of opportunities to explore the surroundings
and has proved hugely popular with visitors seeking a peaceful escape.
The glorious setting just outside the northern edge of the Lake District
National Park is an idyllic spot from which to explore the magnificent Lake
District National Park, a designated unesco World Heritage Site. There are
splendid views of Skiddaw from the gateway of the property. The Solway Coast
aonb is also close by and a short drive north leads to the Scottish Borders.
The property is within easy reach of Cumbrian towns and villages including
popular Keswick in the heart of the Lakes.
Main House
The stunning five bedroom house is beautifully presented both internally and
externally. The traditional Lakeland appearance gives way to spacious and
elegant accommodation that blends character touches with contemporary finishes
and high quality fixtures and fittings. Modern luxuries include underfloor
heating throughout provided by a ground source heat pump.
The vestibule leads to the welcoming reception hall with access to the
principal accommodation. The grand triple aspect sitting room has striking
exposed ceiling beams, a feature fireplace with woodburning stove to one side
and French doors that open to the patio and gardens beyond. The kitchen is
fitted with a fine range of cabinetry with Corian worksurfaces, stylish
underlighting and quality integrated appliances, along with a folding
television. There is ample space for a table and chairs for casual dining. The
kitchen is further served by a walk - in larder and an adjacent utility room
with additional sink, storage and space for a washing machine. There is
external access and a useful separate WC. The dining room provides more formal
entertaining space and is filled with light from full height glazing with
French doors that flows through to the conservatory. The conservatory is a
wonderful spot to relax and take in the surroundings. A study completes the
ground floor accommodation.
There are five bedrooms arranged across the first floor, all finished to an
exceptional standard. The principal bedroom features extensive fitted
wardrobes and a lovely en - suite shower room. The guest bedroom also benefits
from an en - suite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by the
family bathroom. The fully tiled bathroom has a stunning contemporary suite
comprising bath, separate walk - in shower, wash hand basin and WC.
Threapland Moss is situated within extensive gardens and grounds. The
landscaped gardens include a large rear patio that faces south to capture the
sun throughout the day and at all times of the year. To one side is a
productive orchard, and there is also a vegetable patch and greenhouse for the
keen gardener. Stretching away to the south is the well - maintained paddock.
The paddock is level and well - fenced, with a manège positioned to the far
corner. The paddock is complemented by a stable block with two stables and a
store. The stable block has power, lighting and water.
The property is approached onto a generous parking and turning area with
plenty of parking space to serve the whole set up. A double garage adjoins the
main house and there is also a detached open fronted garage.
The Saplings Holiday Cottages
Three attractive cottages provide an established and successful income stream,
and interested parties may wish to explore this outstanding lifestyle and
business opportunity. The cottages can also be used as residential properties.
All three are finished to the same exacting standards found in the main house
to provide a luxurious holiday break in peace and tranquility.
Each cottage is laid out across a single floor, catering to all levels of
mobility. The accommodation for each cottage includes a large dual aspect
sitting room, fully - stocked kitchen and two bedrooms. Two of the cottages have
bathrooms, whilst the other cottage has a shower room. The cottages have their
own small gardens.
