The property

Attractive Farmhouse Conversion Finished To A High Standard


Barney Scar is an attractive farmhouse conversion finished to a high standard, offering the rare opportunity for a purchaser to complete the final stages of renovation to their own specification.

The property is ideally situated in the heart of the desirable village of Soulby, just a short distance from Kirkby Stephen.

The peaceful village setting of Soulby lies approximately two miles from Kirkby Stephen, a thriving market town providing a good range of shops, public houses and restaurants, along with a railway station on the renowned Settle–Carlisle line.

Barney Scar has been refurbished over the past 10 years to a high standard using high quality fixtures, fittings and finishes due to ill health the annexe space remains unfinished allowing the new purchaser to personalise and use the space as they desire.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and offers well-proportioned, flexible living space. To the ground floor, a spacious lounge diner features a charming stone fireplace with multi-fuel stove, creating a welcoming focal point. The ground floor is completed by a modern, well-appointed kitchen, a separate utility room, a cloakroom/WC and a useful entrance porch. There is also a second entrance into the home via the second reception room, providing additional practicality and flexibility to the layout.

To the first floor, there are two double bedrooms to the rear elevation and a single bedroom to the front, all served by the house bathroom. A fourth bedroom presents excellent potential for the creation of a self-contained annexe, comprising a rear-facing double bedroom with en-suite facilities leading down to a living kitchen area. This section of the property remains incomplete.

Externally, there is a pleasant front garden which could be further landscaped to enhance its appeal. The property also benefits from a detached garage and workshop, along with off-road parking for several vehicles. To the rear, a small gravelled area provides a useful outdoor space, complemented by a log store set on the riverbank, offering a peaceful and attractive setting.

Barney Scar represents a superb opportunity to acquire a versatile property suited to a range of uses, including a multi-generational family home, a holiday retreat or an investment purchase.
