Low Lane Cottage is a chocolate box cottage with a detached two storey barn, situated in Newbiggin -On - Lune with glorious views towards Howgill Fells.
Newbiggin-on-Lune is a village in the Eden valley and is part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park and about 4 miles from the market town of Kirkby Stephen. The village lies just off the main A685 route from Brough to Tebay having excellent travel links via road, and rail from Kirkby Stephen on the Settle - Carlisle line. There are excellent walks from the doorstep including a lovely walk to Smardale Gill Viaduct.
The property dates back to 1679 and retains character features one would expect from a house of this age. The current vendors have owned the property for 20 years and have undertaken updates to make it a comfortable home however, a new owner may wish to make further improvements.
The ground floor accomadation comprises a kitchen, two reception rooms, both with underfloor heating and handy WC. There is also a south facing conservatory which has a kitchen area, dining space and doors leading out to the garden.
Upstairs, there are two large front bedrooms, a good size single and the house bathroom. There is also a space that has been well utilised as an airing cupboard and houses the boiler. However, it would be big enough to have a home office there.
Outside, the garden wraps around the property on and offers an extensive plot. There is a south facing lawn, with raised stone beds and a timber garage with double doors. At the front of Low Lanes Cottage is a walled garden with a cobbled area, then steps leading up to a pond. There is also a good size lawn with mature trees and beds. The gated driveway offers safe parking for multiple cars.
There is a detached two storey barn adjacent to the cottage, the ground floor has been used as storage and the top has been part converted with a shower, WC and basin. The barn, with the correct permissions, could be converted to additional accomadation or make a fantastic studio or workshop.
Low Lane Cottage would make a fantastic family home, it would also make a great active retirement house.

LPG gas heating. Loft is boarded and insulated. There is a historic access down the side of the property for the farmer. This hasn’t been used in a number of years as the farmer has access to the fields via gates directly from the lane. A new digester septic tank was installed in 2016, this is located in the field next to the property. The property flooded in Storm Desmond in 2015, a sump and French drain have been fitted as preventative measures.
