The scenic Settle to Carlisle Railway is on the doorstep and the Coast to Coast and Lady Ann footpaths run through. Kirkby Stephen has highly regarded primary and grammar schools as well as a good range of shops, restaurants & pubs, church & chapel and doctor's surgery. There is still a weekly outdoor market and an agricultural auction mart.
The Garage has been used for storage although planning permission has now been approved to refurbish the building and have a work unit with the barn. The planning permission allows B8 usage which is storage/distribution with a space for ancillary office, work studio/workshop

The cost of these checks is £60 (including VAT) per purchase, payable in advance directly to Lifetime Legal, when an offer is agreed and prior to a sales memorandum being issued. This charge is non-refundable under any circumstances.
