Kirkby Stephen offers a wide range of amenities, including highly regarded primary and secondary schools, independent shops, cafés, pubs, a post office, and banking services. Transport connections are excellent, with the M6 approximately 12 miles to the west and the A66 just 3 miles away, providing quick access to the A1. Kirkby Stephen’s railway station, located on the scenic Settle–Carlisle line, offers direct services to both Leeds and Carlisle.
Winton House is a substantial and characterful residence that blends period charm with modern functionality. The ground floor features a beautifully appointed farmhouse kitchen complete with a built-in pantry. There is also a formal dining room, two spacious and welcoming reception rooms, and a cosy snug—ideal for relaxation. In addition, the ground floor includes a utility room and a convenient W/C.
