Rydal Mount Barn is a beautifully appointed historic barn conversion, which has undergone a tasteful and sympathetic renovation to create the spacious, character filled property you see today. Situated in the popular village of Gilcrux, just a short drive to Cockermouth and the Lake District, or the Solway coast, and sold with no onward chain. 

The accommodation is exceptionally well presented and boasts some statement period details not least of which is the magnificent staircase - sourced from a trades hall in the Scottish borders and creating a sense of space and grandeur. Comprising dining area with space for eight, kitchen, utility room and principal bedroom with built in wardrobes and ensuite shower room to the ground floor. To the first floor is an exceptionally well proportioned lounge area, with original timber beams and bathed in natural light from the dual aspect windows, two further double bedrooms and a three piece bathroom. 

Externally to the front of the property is an easy to maintain courtyard with offroad parking for several cars and a detached stone built stable block/ store. To the rear is a private garden with lawn and patio areas. 

Its rare for a property of this standard to hit the market, so an early inspection is a must to avoid missing out!



The friendly village boasts an active village hall and public house and the nearby primary school is the popular Bridekirk/Dovenby with a choice of senior schools between Cockermouth, Keswick and Nelson Thomlinson School in Wigton. Excellent road links along the A595 to Cockermouth and Carlisle, as well as only being a short drive west to the Solway coast and east to the Lake District National Park.



Mains electricity, water and drainage. Oil fired central heating and double glazing installed throughout. Telephone line installed subject to BT regulations. Please note - the mention of any appliances and/or services within these particulars does not imply that they are in full and efficient working order.



From Cockermouth, take the A594 towards Dovenby. After approx. one mile take the right hand turn signposted for Tallentire and follow this road for approx. 2.5 miles turning right signposted Gilcrux. Continue through the village, past the village hall and after approx. 400 yards the property can be found, set back on the left hand side.
