3 bed terraced house for sale

Bolton Village, Appleby-In-Westmorland CA16

Welcome Home To Middlehowe...

A delightful three-bedroom mid-terrace townhouse that forms part of the highly sought-after Graham’s Rigg community in Bolton. Designed in the popular upside-down style, the home has been carefully planned to make the most of its exceptional position. From the main living areas you are treated to breath-taking views across the Pennines and over neighbouring horse fields, while the layout ensures the accommodation remains practical, comfortable and perfectly suited to modern living.

Exterior and Parking

The property has an elegant country-inspired frontage, finished in cream render with sandstone porch and lintels that give an immediate sense of character. At the front there is a block-paved driveway with space for two vehicles, while at the rear a garage and further parking for one more car provides convenience.

The outdoor space at the front has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind, offering a gravelled seating area bordered by lavender and mature planting. This creates a welcoming setting for outdoor dining, a quiet morning coffee or an evening drink as the sun goes down. There is ample space for a picnic bench, and the west-facing aspect ensures plenty of natural light throughout the day. A ramped access makes this area more practical for prams or wheelchair users. To the rear of the property the reinforced balcony with its glass frontage allows you to take in uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. It is a place that feels both private and connected to nature, ideal for relaxation or casual entertaining. The shared yard to the rear is ideal for drying washing on warm sunny days and a gated access provides a direct route to the garage where useful storage can be found.

Ground Floor – Bedrooms and Bathrooms

Entry is through the front door into a bright hallway where the durable flooring has been chosen with practicality in mind, especially after a day walking the fells or exploring the local countryside. All three bedrooms are located on this level, offering peaceful retreats away from the main living areas.

The principal bedroom is a spacious double with fitted wardrobes and overhead storage, complemented by a charming Laura Ashley bird-motif feature wall. A window overlooks the shared garden, adding to the sense of calm. The en-suite bathroom is finished with blue terracotta floor tiles and matching wall tiles with a decorative border, and is fitted with a pedestal sink, WC, shelving with light and mirror, radiator, and a single shower cubicle.

The second bedroom is a light and neutrally decorated double with oatmeal carpet and a front aspect view, while the third bedroom is another generously proportioned double overlooking the rear garden. This room could easily serve as a guest room, home office, or nursery, making the home adaptable to different lifestyles.

The family bathroom is particularly spacious and finished in a soft cornflower blue décor, with blue and white motif tiling that adds a touch of character. It is fitted with a full-sized bath with electric shower over, a brushed chrome towel radiator, extractor fan, and mirror with light. Additional storage is provided by a shelved linen cupboard with immersion heater backup, while a separate utility cupboard keeps everyday essentials such as coats, vacuum cleaner and ironing board neatly stored away.

Utility and Rear Access

Practicality continues with the separate utility room, which houses the Worcester oil-fired boiler that was installed just 18 months ago. There is plumbing for a washing machine, a stainless-steel sink with drainer, and a laminate worktop. A glazed wooden door leads directly to the rear yard and the garage. The garage itself has an up-and-over door, side access, and the benefit of parking rights in front.

First Floor – Living Accommodation

A half-turn staircase leads up to the first floor, where the main living accommodation enjoys both light and spectacular views. The living room is bright and spacious, decorated in soft neutral tones with a bold midnight blue feature wall adding depth and warmth. A limestone-effect surround frames the electric living flame fire, while cornicing to the ceiling gives a subtle touch of elegance. Dual aspect windows provide ever-changing views of the Pennines to the front and horse fields to the rear. French doors open onto a south-facing glass-fronted balcony, the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine at sunset or simply take in the tranquillity of the surroundings.

The kitchen and dining space is thoughtfully designed in an L-shape, fitted with beech-style units, stainless steel handles and a stainless-steel sink with drainer. Integrated appliances include a fridge-freezer, dishwasher, and double oven. Blue tiled splashbacks add a pop of colour, while cushioned vinyl flooring offers practicality. The dining area has proved to be a highly versatile space, with excellent natural light making it equally suitable as a playroom, office, or snug. It is a flexible setting that adapts easily to the rhythm of everyday life or to hosting family and friends.

Community and Setting

Life at Graham’s Rigg offers more than just a home; it brings a sense of community. The development is a welcoming mix of detached houses, bungalows, and townhouses, with a friendly atmosphere and a blend of ages and households. Its elevated position means that on clear days the surrounding fells provide a dramatic backdrop, while the south-facing aspect ensures the home is filled with natural light. For those who love the outdoors, the Pennines and the Yorkshire Dales are within easy reach, providing endless opportunities for walking, cycling and exploring. At the same time, the village of Bolton and the nearby market town of Appleby ensure that shops, schools and local amenities are conveniently close.

Middlehowe is more than simply a three-bedroom townhouse. It is a home that balances modern comfort with the beauty of its natural setting, offering spectacular views, flexible living spaces and a welcoming community. Whether as a family home, a retreat from busy life, or a base for enjoying the surrounding countryside, this property provides an enviable lifestyle in one of the Eden Valley’s most desirable settings.
