The Property
Set above the valley floor with long views across open countryside, Greenbank Farmhouse sits within approximately 7 ½ acres, comprising easily managed gardens, three enclosed paddocks and an area of woodland, all within the Lake District National Park. The elevated setting is peaceful and private, with a remarkable sense of space.

At its heart is a well-considered country house, practical and well-finished, complemented by striking contemporary additions. The property is further enhanced by a self-contained annexe and an impressive studio and office building, offering a substantial and highly versatile space with excellent potential for a variety of uses, whether as additional accommodation (subject to any necessary consents), workspace or creative studio. A range of outbuildings and stables are already in place, well suited to equestrian or smallholding use.

The kitchen sits at the practical core of the home, a generously proportioned space that is contemporary in both feel and function, finished in a sleek monochrome palette with gloss cabinetry, a central island and a vivid glass splashback. Integrated appliances are neatly arranged, with a walk-in pantry tucked behind. There’s space for casual seating or dining within the kitchen itself, while the adjacent dining room provides a more formal setting.

Beyond the kitchen, a separate wing accommodates a versatile reception room, ideal as a snug, cinema room, or home office, alongside a guest shower room, dedicated gym, and sauna suite. Finishes throughout combine warmth and practicality, featuring timber flooring and painted beams. A well-proportioned boot room also serves as another convenient everyday entrance.

Upstairs, three double bedrooms, two with en-suite shower rooms are arranged across the main landing. Each has high ceilings, country views and a calm, light-filled feel. A large family bathroom serves the remainder of the floor, with a separate bath and shower, built-in storage, and subtle tiling.

The annexe can be accessed either internally from the main house or via its own private entrance. It includes two bedrooms with en-suites, a fully equipped kitchen, and a sitting room with a stone fireplace with a log burner. The adjoining garden is enclosed, gently landscaped, and screened with planting, a natural self-contained space for extended family, guests or tenants.

The Studio
To the east, the detached Lakeland stone and timber-clad studio is a genuine asset, offering over 1,200 sq ft of highly versatile space arranged across a substantial open-plan studio and adjoining office. Both areas are generous in scale, with the studio and adjoining office offering excellent proportions, and a footprint rarely found in a residential setting.

Full-height bifold doors open out to the gardens and surrounding countryside, drawing in natural light and creating an uplifting environment throughout the year. Internally, the space is well considered, with a vaulted ceiling, contemporary kitchen area, WC facilities and a flexible layout that can be adapted to suit a wide range of uses.

The scale and independence of the building, with its own access and parking, make it ideally suited to a variety of purposes, including a professional workspace, consulting rooms, creative studio or wellbeing use. It also offers clear potential for alternative uses, including ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. Buyers seeking a meaningful separation between home and work will find this a particularly valuable addition.

Attached, a large garage provides power, water, a WC and a mezzanine level, adding further versatility to the space.

Externally
The grounds at Greenbank extend to around 7 ½ acres, with a combination of gardens, grazing paddocks, and woodland. The slate-paved rear terrace wraps around the house, positioned to take in uninterrupted views across rolling countryside. The land is neatly divided with dry stone walling and fencing, and includes three stables with power and water, together with outbuildings and a biomass boiler room.
