Occupying an enviable elevated position with far-reaching views across the rolling Cumbrian countryside, Bothy Cottage is a truly sublime detached, refurbished and extended four-bedroom bungalow in the highly desirable village of Hayton. Quote AP0121

Offering an exceptional blend of space, style, versatility and rural charm, this impressive home has been thoughtfully designed around modern family living.

With two reception rooms, a stunning open-plan family/dining kitchen, spectacular garden room, four bedrooms, two luxurious bathrooms, an oak garage and magnificent gardens, there is very little this outstanding property doesn't deliver.

And then there is the setting...

Hayton is a picturesque and highly regarded village, perfectly positioned just a few miles from historic Carlisle and close to the Scottish Border. Peaceful and wonderfully rural, yet within easy reach of everyday amenities and major road links, it genuinely offers the best of both worlds.

A home designed for modern living:

The superb family/dining kitchen is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Stylish, spacious and beautifully suited to everyday life, it provides the perfect setting for everything from relaxed family breakfasts to entertaining friends and extended family.

From here, the accommodation flows naturally into the principal reception spaces, creating a wonderfully sociable layout.

The main living room is warm and inviting, with a feature stove providing an attractive focal point and cosy warmth during the colder months. From here, glazed doors lead into one of the property's real showstoppers – the beautiful garden room.

Flooded with natural light and centred around another impressive wood-burning stove, this superb addition provides a spectacular space in which to relax and enjoy the surrounding landscape. With doors opening directly onto the rear patio, the connection between the house, garden and countryside is exceptional.

On warmer days, simply open the doors and let the outside in.

There is also a separate dining area, currently arranged for more formal dining but equally capable of becoming an extension of the main living space, depending on your requirements.

A further reception room provides something completely different. Cosy, intimate and wonderfully characterful, it makes an ideal snug, reading room or quiet retreat and features its own stove together with direct access to the rear garden.

Four bedrooms & luxurious bathrooms:

The accommodation continues with four well-proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom.

A beautifully appointed family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, while a separate bootroom/cloakroom adds further practicality to this substantial home.

The property benefits from two entrances, one to the front of the property and an additional entrance to the side.

Magnificent gardens & outstanding views:

Externally, Bothy Cottage is equally impressive.

Electric gates open onto a large, secure driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles, while the property is enclosed to create a private and secure environment. A great feature of this house is that it is at the end of a road - so there is no through traffic.

The driveway opens to an extremely impressive and recently built oak garage with a covered carport.

The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property's greatest assets. Beautifully established and enjoying simply stunning panoramic views across the surrounding countryside, it provides an idyllic backdrop for entertaining, relaxing or simply enjoying the peace and tranquillity of this exceptional location.

There is also a charming ornamental pond filled with Koi fish, adding another lovely feature to these magnificent gardens.

Hayton – rural living with excellent connections:

Despite its peaceful setting, Hayton is incredibly well placed. Carlisle city centre is approximately 15 minutes away, while the market town of Brampton is only around three miles away, providing a wide range of everyday amenities, independent shops, cafés and services.

The village itself has a strong community spirit and is home to the popular Stone Inn, while neighbouring Warwick Bridge provides further amenities including a Co-op, quality butcher, tea room and local pubs.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the surrounding area is exceptional, with Talkin Tarn, Gelt Woods and the Pennine Hills all within easy reach. The nearby Hadrian's Wall adds a fascinating historic dimension to an already remarkable location.

Road connections are excellent, with easy access to both the A69 and M6, making Carlisle, Cumbria and the wider region readily accessible.

There are also excellent local schooling options, with Hayton benefiting from a highly-regarded primary school and further primary and secondary provision available throughout the surrounding area.

A rare opportunity:

Bothy Cottage is much more than simply an impressive house. It is a substantial, beautifully presented family home in an exceptional rural setting, combining generous accommodation and modern living with privacy, outstanding gardens and some truly spectacular views.

Peaceful, private and surrounded by the Cumbrian countryside, yet remarkably convenient for Carlisle and the region's major road networks, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a very special home in one of North Cumbria's most desirable village locations.

Bothy Cottage really does offer the best of both worlds – and is a property that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.

There is a section of the driveway beyond the gate which is currently unregistered. All appropriate rights of way exist over the full drive for the use and enjoyment of the property. As the area has been gated since 2018 there is the potential for this area to be claimed by adverse possession in 2030. The property will be sold with appropriate legal statements regarding the occupation of the land together with indemnity insurance actioned at the seller's expense. Please refer to your solicitor for legal advice regarding the above.
