Description

Stoneygill is a truly impressive and immaculately presented detached residence, offering exceptionally generous rooms and highly flexible accommodation that is perfectly suited to modern family life and multi-generational living. Occupying a substantial wraparound plot in the highly sought-after village of Brough Sowerby, the property enjoys privacy, open countryside views and a wonderful sense of space both inside and out.

The village of Brough Sowerby provides a peaceful yet connected rural setting with a friendly, close-knit community—an ideal environment for families seeking room to grow. Positioned between the popular market town of Kirkby Stephen and the neighbouring village of Brough, the location combines the tranquillity of country living with easy access to everyday amenities, schooling and transport links.

Brough offers a village shop, primary school, outreach post office and hotel, while regular bus services connect to Kendal and Penrith. The property falls within the catchment area for the highly regarded Kirkby Stephen and Appleby Grammar Schools, making it an excellent choice for families. The famous Settle–Carlisle railway line is also easily accessible from both Kirkby Stephen and Appleby.

Just three miles away, Kirkby Stephen offers a vibrant and well-served market town environment with supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, restaurants, public houses and leisure facilities. Road links are excellent, with the A66 providing swift access to Scotch Corner (A1[M]) and Penrith (M6), and onward routes south via Kirkby Stephen to Tebay (M6) for Kendal and Lancaster.

The accommodation at Stoneygill is arranged over two floors and immediately impresses with its sense of scale and flow. The ground floor opens via a practical entrance porch into a welcoming hallway, ideally suited to busy family life. The large, light-filled living room enjoys far-reaching countryside views and a multi-fuel stove, creating a superb space for family gatherings and entertaining. The spacious kitchen diner, truly the heart of the home, offers ample room for everyday living, socialising and celebrations, complemented by a separate formal dining room ideal for larger family occasions.

A particularly attractive feature is the generous ground-floor bedroom with en-suite shower room, providing excellent flexibility for multi-generational living, visiting guests or independent teenage accommodation. A contemporary family bathroom with jacuzzi bath, along with internal access to the garage and wood store, completes the ground floor.

The first floor continues to deliver outstanding space. The principal bedroom suite is notably large and includes a walk-in dressing room and en-suite shower room, offering a private retreat for parents or owners. A second substantial double bedroom also benefits from its own en-suite, while the fourth room—currently arranged as a study—offers further flexibility as a bedroom, home office or hobby space. A built-in sauna adds a touch of luxury and enhances the property's appeal as a holiday retreat.

Externally, Stoneygill is approached by a large tarmac driveway providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, ideal for family living or guests. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, offering a safe and spacious environment for children, while the patio and decking area with built-in BBQ creates a fantastic setting for outdoor entertaining. Backing onto open fields, the garden enjoys a peaceful, private outlook across beautiful countryside.

Stoneygill represents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial, adaptable home with exceptional room sizes in a desirable rural location. Whether as a long-term family residence, a multi-generational home, a luxurious holiday retreat or a high-quality investment property, Stoneygill offers space, comfort and lifestyle in equal measure.
