Todds House is a surprisingly spacious, semi-detached, well presented farmhouse located in North Stainmore, enjoying glorious views across the Eden Valley. The property is situated in a rural, yet not isolated position, in the Upper Pennines area of outstanding natural beauty.
North Stainmore has an active and thriving community that have regular monthly meet ups at the village hall which include art and craft activities, domino drives etc. The village is approx. 3 miles from Brough in Cumbria.
Brough has a primary school, village shop, outreach post office, a hotel, public house and thriving medical practice with in-house pharmacy. Lying just 7 miles from the popular market town of Kirkby Stephen which itself has a variety of amenities including supermarket, general shops, banks, hotels, public houses, restaurants, primary and secondary schools (school bus collection from end of lane) and various sporting facilities. It is close to the A66 with easy access to the A1 at Scotch Corner and the M6 at Tebay. The Lake District, Teesdale and the Yorkshire Dales are all within an hour's drive.
Todds House is believed to date back to the late 1600's, extended in the 1850's and more recently knocked through to incorporate the adjoining barn. It benefits from oil central heating and double glazing.
On the ground floor is a lovely large dining kitchen with a Rayburn, which supplies the central heating and hot water, a stone built sun room, dining hall/home office and a pretty sitting room with multi-fuel stove. To the rear of the house is a good entrance hall, separate boot room (ideal for dogs), a WC, utility room and shower room.
Upstairs is a superb Master suite with en-suite shower room, bedroom and open lounge area with door to raised decking to give direct access to the garden and panoramic views across the valley. This room could be used as an independent annexe, as plumbing and electrics are already in place for a kitchenette. There are 3 further double bedrooms, a large bathroom and store cupboard/dressing room.
Outside, the property is approached via a council maintained lane, leading to a gated parking area. There is a timber built workshop/shed and planning permission for a double garage. The gardens stretch around to the front with a lovely patio area from the sun room.
Viewing is essential at Todds House to appreciate the beautiful location and size of accommodation. It would make a perfect family home or is equally suited to holiday or active retirement living.
