Barbuie Barbuie House is the most delightful Georgian Category C listed farmhouse, originally built in the mid 18th century. This impressive family home is set in glorious garden grounds and enjoys a tranquil and unspoilt rural location. Surrounded by open countryside, it also benefits from the Dalwhat Water meandering through the estate. Largely sustainable on its own heat and power, there are a range of outbuildings and stores to include a farm office, studio, workshops, boiler & woodchip store, byre and garage. Built of traditional construction under a slate roof, the house offers well proportioned rooms, retained period features and a flexible layout. The property has been renovated over recent years including being completely re-wired but still offers scope to improve further and put your own stamp on it. The extensive grounds include wooded areas; a charming walled garden; pond, with jetty suitable for boating or swimming; a loch; a south facing terrace, and extensive parking. ACCOMMODATION A part glazed front door opens into the welcoming hallway, which offers direct access to the drawing room and sitting room and has carpeted stairs leading to the first floor. The charming drawing room is filled with natural light and enjoys a triple aspect, with multi-fuel stove and French doors opening out to the garden. The sitting room also has a multifuel stove, recessed display shelving and enjoys views over the front garden and beyond. The kitchen/dining room is an excellent size, with double height ceiling and a dual aspect, as well as glazed doors leading to both the inner courtyard and to the front terrace and garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of solid wood units and complementary worksurfaces, and there is an electric Aga (connected to the solar and hydro systems). Adjacent to the kitchen is a useful pantry/store area, with WC off. Also on the ground floor is a flexible use room, presently used as an office, which in turn leads through to a generous utility room with shower room beyond. Timber stairs from the utility room lead up to a games/TV room, with exposed stone walls and rafters, a mezzanine area and an adjoining guest bedroom that boasts direct access to the walled garden. There are three generous double bedrooms on the first floor. Two of the bedrooms are to the front elevation and have lovely open views. The principal bedroom also has an ensuite dressing room with WC; there is plenty of room to add in a bath and/or shower here too if desired. The third double bedroom has a charming fireplace and views over the walled garden to the rear. The family bathroom comprises a traditional roll top bath, WC, wash hand basin, large walk-in shower (mains) and exposed painted floorboards. Stairs from the first-floor landing continue up to the second floor, where three bright attic bedrooms can be found. The larger bedrooms have double glazed windows to the front elevation, with lovely views, and the smaller bedroom has a skylight window. A WC completes the accommodation on the top floor. Outside A pillared entrance with gravelled driveway leads to a large parking area at the side of the house, and then also splits, with the remainder of the driveway leading to Barbuie Cottage and additional outbuildings. Within the courtyard of the house are two workshops, a biomass boiler store, woodchip store, two general stores with insulated studio/party/games room above, garage and kennel. The property is set within beautiful established walled garden grounds comprising wooded areas, lawns, sunny terrace and specimen trees and plants. The Dalwhat Water meanders through the garden, and there is a large pond with a jetty. To the northwest of the house is a traditional 2 storey barn that offers scope for redevelopment subject to the necessary planning consents.

House with pool and garden Carlisle (United Kingdom)
Hadrians House - A purpose-built equestrian residence of rare calibre, combining professional-grade facilities with refined modern country living. Constructed in 2015 with a clear brief—create a high-performance equestrian facility without compromising on residential quality—Hadrian’s House delivers on both fronts with precision. Set within approximately 7.4 acres, the property is discreetly positioned behind electric gates, offering privacy while remaining on the edge of a well-connected village. From the outset, the tone is established: natural materials, oak detailing, and a restrained palette create a modern farmhouse aesthetic that feels both considered and functional. This is not a cosmetic nod to country living—it is designed for it. The House The ground floor is anchored by a wide entrance hall, finished with oak flooring that runs consistently throughout, reinforcing the sense of cohesion. A bespoke oak staircase with integrated storage sets a practical tone early. The kitchen is the core of the house—bespoke, hand-painted solid wood cabinetry by Woodstyle, topped with black granite. It is properly specified rather than styled: Belfast sink, Neff appliances, wine fridge, and integrated timber wine storage within the island. The Aga is gas-fired with an electric companion, providing five ovens, multiple hobs, and flexibility that suits both day-to-day use and larger-scale entertaining. This space flows into a dining area and onward into a striking oak-framed living area. Extensive glazing wraps the elevation, pulling in natural light and framing uninterrupted views across the paddocks, critically, maintaining constant visual connection to the land and horses. A side access door leads directly to the patio, reinforcing the indoor-outdoor relationship. A secondary lounge offers contrast, more enclosed, intentionally quieter, with a contemporary gas fire and direct access to the patio. Glazed doors connect through to a formal dining room, allowing the layout to flex between open-plan entertaining and more defined spaces. The supporting accommodation is well judged: a fully fitted utility/laundry room with matching cabinetry, a ground floor shower room, and a boiler/drying room designed specifically for country use - wet coats, boots, and kit are clearly anticipated. A stable-style external door reinforces this as a working entrance. A study to the rear provides additional flexibility. This space is currently an office, but equally viable as a fourth bedroom, snug, or hobby space. First Floor The upper floor continues the same disciplined approach to materials and finish, with underfloor heating throughout. Three bedrooms are arranged to maximise light and outlook. The principal suite breathtaking. Vaulted ceilings, exposed oak structure, and a glazed gable end create a space that feels closer to a boutique retreat than a conventional bedroom. A dedicated dressing room and a high-spec ensuite features porcelain tiling and a large walk-in shower which complete this luxury suite. A second bedroom also benefits from ensuite facilities, while the family bathroom is centred around a freestanding bath, finished in a neutral, durable palette. Equestrian Facilities This is where Hadrian’s House separates itself from the majority of lifestyle properties. The equestrian offering is not an add-on—it is the primary asset, executed to a standard that supports serious use. 7.4 acres, intelligently divided into rotational paddocks Outdoor arena (50m x 30m) with premium sand and rubber surface Indoor arena (18m x 30m) with mirrors and full lighting—usable year-round Canter track/gallop running along the boundary, linking upper paddocks All-weather turnout areas adjacent to the indoor arena Horse walker (by separate negotiation)The stable block is equally well specified: 8 full stables plus additional storage stable Rubber matting to floors and walls throughout Solarium for muscle recovery and conditioning (by separate negotiation) Dedicated wash bay with hot and cold water Central cross-tie areas with excellent lighting Integrated kitchen, seating, and laundry area for day-to-day yard management First-floor tack room and rug storageOperational flow has been considered. Movement between arenas, turnout, stabling, and storage is efficient, which matters if this is being used at scale or professionally. A large gravel yard provides ample space for wagons, trailers, and machinery, with straightforward access and turning. Additional Accommodation & Leisure Across the yard, a covered area provides parking for two vehicles. Above, a self-contained studio apartment offers genuine ancillary accommodation—well-finished with oak flooring, open-plan living/sleeping space, fitted kitchen, and shower room. This is suitable for staff, guests, or as a dedicated office separate from the main house. Closer to the house, a garden room has been configured as a leisure space with bar and sauna. Adjacent is a covered patio with hot tub, positioned to take advantage of the south-facing orientation and uninterrupted views across the land. Location – Kirkandrews-on-Eden Kirkandrews-on-Eden offers a rare combination of accessible countryside and authentic rural living. Surrounded by a collection of well-regarded villages, the area is known for its excellent country pubs, traditional inns, and quality local butchers, delivering the kind of day-to-day lifestyle that buyers at this level actively look for, not just scenery. Positioned just a short drive from Carlisle, the property benefits from immediate access to a comprehensive range of amenities, schooling, and services, alongside excellent transport links via the M6 and mainline rail connections to London and Glasgow. For those drawn to the outdoors, the setting is particularly strong. The property lies along the route of Hadrian’s Wall Path, allowing direct access to miles of established walking routes straight from the doorstep. The area provides quiet lanes and open countryside ideal for hacking, while both the Lake District National Park and the Cumbrian coastline are within easy reach—offering a diverse mix of landscapes from fells and lakes to open beaches. This is a location that delivers not just on convenience, but on lifestyle—particularly for buyers prioritising space, access to the outdoors, and a strong sense of place. Summary Hadrian’s House is not a compromised lifestyle purchase. It is a properly executed equestrian property where the infrastructure justifies the headline. If the buyer’s priority is horses—training, conditioning, or small-scale professional use—this will outperform the majority of comparable offerings. The house supports that use case without dilution, delivering a level of finish and comfort that aligns with the quality of the yard.

With panoramic uninterrupted views over Derwentwater to the head of Borrowdale, HillCrest22 is ideally situated, with 22 of the ‘Wainwright’s fells’ visible from the guesthouse. The size, layout and versatility of the accommodation mean the property would also make a superb family home. Positioned in the prestigious area ‘The Heads’ in Keswick, HillCrest22 is an exceptional Victorian guesthouse that effortlessly blends heritage, contemporary Scandinavian-inspired design, and commercial opportunity. Originally constructed in 1887 by the then Lord of the Manor, Reginald Dykes Marshall, the property has been sympathetically transformed into one of Keswick’s most stylish and highly regarded guesthouses. Behind the handsome period façade lies an interior carefully curated by an acclaimed Danish architectural practice. Traditional craftsmanship and original Victorian character have been thoughtfully combined with clean contemporary styling, natural materials, and premium finishes throughout.

Throughout the property there is a remarkable cohesion between old and new. Original features sit comfortably alongside Scandinavian influences, creating interiors that feel both luxurious and understated. Dining Room Positioned at the front of the property, the dining room enjoys an elevated bay window with spectacular panoramic views across the parkland towards Cat Bells and the surrounding Lakeland fells.

House with garden and terrace Penrith (United Kingdom)
The Old Vicarage A distinguished Grade II listed village residence with three luxury holiday cottages and exceptional private grounds. Dating back to approximately 1780, The Old Vicarage is a remarkable former vicarage, steeped in local history and occupying an enviable position within one of the area’s most exclusive and picturesque villages. Held by the current owners for the past 25 years, the property has been sympathetically restored and meticulously maintained, blending period authenticity with refined contemporary styling. This is a genuinely rare opportunity to acquire a substantial historic home with significant ancillary accommodation and an established lifestyle income stream, all within beautifully landscaped grounds. The village itself carries strong historical significance, with celebrated poet W. H. Auden having famously performed here, adding further cultural heritage to an already distinguished setting. Over recent years, the property has undergone extensive improvements including a full reroof, chimney reconstruction, comprehensive redecoration and thoughtful interior styling throughout, ensuring the home is presented to an exceptional standard. Accommodation Entrance Hall & Kitchen Living Spaces Entering through the front door, you are welcomed into a generous entrance hall which immediately sets the tone for the home, showcasing the elegant proportions and period detailing found throughout. To the right is a practical utility and boot room, perfectly suited to country living. Opposite sits a versatile additional reception space, currently utilised as an extension to the kitchen, providing further storage, a large sink area and space for a double fridge freezer. Traditional tiled flooring, wood panelling and original character features continue throughout these spaces. The kitchen itself is beautifully appointed and flooded with natural light via a large feature window overlooking the gardens. Bespoke Birdseye maple cabinetry is paired with black granite work surfaces, while a traditional oil-fired Aga with four ovens, twin hotplates and warming plate forms the centrepiece of the room. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher and fridge, while original working shutters further reinforce the property’s historic charm. Reception Rooms Beyond the kitchen lies the impressive main hall and entrance porch, creating a wonderful space to welcome guests. Across the hall is the principal lounge, a beautifully styled reception room centred around an open fireplace with bespoke fitted wall cabinetry. Large sash windows with original working shutters frame attractive views across the gardens and provide exceptional natural light. The room offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, equally suited to relaxed evenings or formal entertaining. Leading from the lounge is a generous study, ideal for home working or welcoming clients thanks to its own external access door, allowing business use without disturbing the main residence. A log-burning stove provides additional warmth and character, while large dual-aspect windows enjoy attractive views over the grounds. Accessed from the study is a highly useful storage room, currently utilised in support of the holiday cottage business. To the rear of the property, a long internal corridor provides access to the cellar, a downstairs WC and rear yard access. The corridor also leads to the elegant dining room, a superb entertaining space featuring ornate timber detailing, fitted shelving and a further open fireplace. French doors connect seamlessly into the wraparound garden room, creating an excellent flow between indoor and outdoor living. The dining room could equally function as a secondary sitting room if desired. First Floor Accommodation A beautifully light staircase rises to a stunning galleried landing, where the staircase divides into three separate directions, enhancing both character and practicality. To one wing are three generous double bedrooms, one benefitting from its own ensuite shower room, while a stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Each room has been tastefully decorated and enjoys large windows and attractive outlooks. The opposite wing provides two further spacious bedrooms alongside a substantial built-in linen cupboard. At the end of the hall lies the magnificent principal suite. This luxurious room enjoys five windows providing triple-aspect views, decorative ceiling panelling and an exceptional sense of space and light. A large walk-in dressing room adds further practicality and refinement. A staircase then rises to the true showpiece of the suite — a private luxury spa bathroom. Beautifully appointed beneath exposed beams, this remarkable space features underfloor heating, a large walk-in shower with steam room functionality, relaxation area and a two-person whirlpool Jacuzzi bath, creating an experience rarely found within a private residence. The Holiday Cottages Constructed in 2020, the property additionally benefits from three beautifully designed luxury holiday cottages, providing a substantial and well-established income opportunity. Each cottage offers: * One double bedroom * Open-plan kitchen, dining and living accommodation * Individual layouts and interior styling * Dedicated parking spaces * Private outdoor seating areas * EV charging points * Access to a communal dog washing station Affectionately known as “Garden Cottage”, “Bay Tree Cottage”, and “Orchard Cottage”, the cottages are exceptionally light, stylish and highly self-contained. Heated via electric radiators and supplemented by solar panels, the cottages have been carefully designed to operate independently from the main residence, allowing owners to maintain privacy and enjoy the property uninterrupted while generating an additional income. Accessed separately via a track running alongside the property, guests can arrive and depart discreetly without impacting the principal home. Gardens & Grounds The Old Vicarage sits within beautifully maintained mature grounds, offering a high degree of privacy and shelter. To the rear and side are immaculate landscaped gardens featuring mature planting, lawned areas and a stunning rill cascade water feature, creating a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. The front gardens are equally impressive, with formal box hedging, mature trees and an attractive seating terrace perfectly positioned to enjoy afternoon and evening sun while overlooking the village green. A substantial gravel driveway provides extensive parking, while a large garage offers excellent additional storage potential. Location – Eden Hall Occupying a distinguished position within the heart of Edenhall, The Old Vicarage enjoys an exceptional village setting just four miles from the highly regarded market town of Penrith. Steeped in history, Edenhall is widely recognised for its historic hall and the famous “Luck of Edenhall” glass legend, a story dating back centuries which helped establish the village’s reputation far beyond Cumbria. The village itself retains an attractive and peaceful character, centred around beautiful period buildings, mature greenery and a strong sense of community. Despite its tranquil setting, the location is remarkably convenient. Penrith provides an excellent range of independent shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and everyday services, while the nearby M6 motorway and West Coast Main Line station offer superb connectivity north and south, making the area highly accessible for both commuting and leisure travel. The surrounding countryside is some of the finest in the region, with the Lake District National Park easily accessible, alongside the Eden Valley’s rolling landscapes, riverside walks and picturesque villages. Outdoor pursuits are readily available in every direction, whether walking, cycling, fishing or simply enjoying the scenery. Schooling is another significant draw to the area, with an excellent selection of highly regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, including Queen Elizabeth Grammar School in Penrith, one of the county’s most respected secondary schools.
