The Property
Occupying a peaceful rural position on the edge of Wigton, Osborne Farm is an established small farm comprising a well-maintained traditional farmhouse, an extensive range of agricultural buildings and approximately 11.93 acres of productive grazing land with further land available by separate negotiation. Combining the practicality of a working farmstead with exceptional views towards the Solway Firth, Criffel and the Lakeland fells, the property offers considerable versatility for agricultural, equestrian or lifestyle use, while remaining within easy reach of local amenities. The farmhouse also offers scope for sympathetic extension, subject to the necessary consents, while pre-application planning advice has been sought regarding the future conversion of some of the existing buildings.

Approached via a country lane, Osborne Farm is centred around a traditional farmhouse flanked by an attractive range of stone and agricultural buildings that together create a well-established farmstead. Inside, the accommodation is bright, well maintained and thoughtfully arranged, offering comfortable family living while remaining true to its practical rural origins. The dual aspect lounge commands delightful views across the surrounding countryside towards Criffel, with an open fireplace complementing the room’s traditional character. Across the hall, the separate dining room is bright and well proportioned, providing an inviting space for family meals and entertaining.

The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of painted cabinetry and incorporates an electric Rangemaster cooker with five-ring hob, double warming plate and extractor, together with an integrated dishwasher, fridge and ample space for a breakfast table. Beyond, a spacious utility and boot room provides excellent ancillary accommodation with external access.

The first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys uninterrupted views across the adjoining grazing land, while the remaining bedrooms provide flexibility for family accommodation, guests or home working. A family bathroom fitted with a bath and overhead shower is complemented by a separate WC, creating a practical arrangement.

Throughout, the farmhouse has been carefully maintained, presenting light, well-balanced accommodation that will immediately appeal to those seeking a comfortable rural home, while also offering exciting opportunities to enhance or adapt the property over time.

Externally
The steading is arranged around a substantial enclosed concrete yard, creating an efficient and highly functional working environment. A comprehensive range of traditional stone barns and modern agricultural buildings includes a feed barn, three cubicle sheds, stock buildings, workshop, former outside WC and extensive hardstanding, offering excellent flexibility for a wide variety of agricultural, livestock or storage requirements.

The land extends to approximately 11.93 acres, comprising a large grazing field of approximately 10.13 acres, a 0.54 acre front paddock, together with the farmhouse and steading extending to approximately 1.26 acres. The pasture enjoys good roadside access and open countryside views, making it equally attractive for grazing livestock or equestrian use. Further land is available by separate negotiation.

Rather than formal gardens, the farmhouse is complemented by an enclosed yard incorporating a sheltered seating area, reflecting the property’s agricultural heritage while providing an attractive outdoor space to enjoy the surrounding rural setting. A public footpath follows the lane past the property.

Agents Note
Pre-application planning advice has been obtained from Cumberland Council indicating that the conversion of the traditional stone barn is likely to be supported, with further potential for the conversion of the larger agricultural buildings into residential dwellings, subject to obtaining all necessary planning permissions and statutory consents. Buyers should satisfy themselves through their own enquiries regarding any future development proposals.
