Potential, Character and Opportunity! Damerosehay presents a rare chance to acquire a truly characterful, chocolate-box style cottage, deceptively spacious both inside and out, and tucked away within its own gardens on a peaceful lane in the heart of a sought-after village community. In need of complete modernisation and improvement, the property offers tremendous scope to reimagine and transform it into a spectacular home.
Inside, the accommodation includes four reception rooms, among them a striking double-height room at the rear which, once reconfigured, could become the true heart of the home, together with a large dining kitchen and adjoining conservatory. Four bedrooms, a family bathroom and ground floor shower room complete the versatile internal layout. Outside, the grounds are equally impressive, with a generous rear garden and a charming side garden providing both privacy and wonderful outdoor space, as well as excellent potential to extend or develop further, subject to permission. A detached outbuilding with two storage rooms, along with a pretty gravel pathway and front garden, add to the appeal, with scope to create valuable off-street parking.
Opportunities of this calibre, brimming with character and potential, seldom come to the market. Contact Hunters today to arrange your personal viewing.
Nestled within the beautiful Solway Plain, the village of Kirkbride offers the perfect blend of rural charm and everyday convenience. The village itself benefits from a range of amenities, including a primary school, convenience store, post office, doctors’ surgery, pub and garage, ensuring daily needs are well catered for close to home. Just a short drive away, the bustling market town of Wigton provides supermarkets, healthcare services and a variety of independent shops, while the historic city of Carlisle is within easy reach for excellent shopping, leisure and cultural opportunities. Transport links are convenient, with a bus service through the village, rail connections available at nearby Wigton and Carlisle, and easy access to the A596 and A595, making travel across Cumbria and towards the Lake District, the Solway Coast and beyond both simple and convenient.
