Thorphinsty House

Cartmel Fell

Grange-Over-Sands

Cumbria

LA11 6NF

An exceptional, beautifully presented home offering generous 4

bedroom living space with high quality fittings in a peaceful

location with lovely country views.

This spacious and comfortable home has a wealth of original

beams and character located in the lovely Winster Valley; 4 good

Double Bedrooms, Large Lounge, Dining Room, Snug/Study,

Farmhouse Kitchen, Large Reception Hall, Double Garage and just

over ½ an acre of gardens including paddock.

Description: 'Thorphinsty House' is absolutely superb! If anyone is

seeking space, quality and comfort in a country setting, they have

no need to look further. The rooms are generous and fantastic

for entertaiing! The Winster Valley is a hidden gem on the edge

of Cartmel Fell but the A590 at High Newton is only about 5

minutes drive away giving good access for commuting and

shopping. The setting is rural and peaceful but the many

attractions of the Lake District are within easy reach.

Converted in around 2000 by reputable local builders the

property is of substantial stone construction with a Lakeland slate

roof. This is the larger portion of the three connected houses and

is separated at Ground Floor level by a walkway making it 'nearly

detached'. The internal layout takes maximum advantage of the

available space resulting in a convenient layout with generously

proportioned rooms to include the impressive welcoming

Reception Hall with all the main reception rooms leaving off. The

spacious rooms are complemented by the wealth of natural

timbers and the exposed original beams which combine with the

lovely views to create a fine home in one of the loveliest parts of

the district.

Location: Situated on the Western side of the picturesque Winster

Valley, this delightful hamlet is surrounded by woodland, open

fields and views to Whitbarrow. To reach the property, proceed

from Grange in the direction of Lindale. At the mini roundabout go

straight ahead into Back O' The Fell Road by the Lindale Inn and

follow the road for 2.1 miles to the crossroads. Go straight ahead

and follow the road for 1.9 miles, bear left and immediately right

into a gravelled driveway. Proceed around to the left and

Thorphinsty House' is on the left. An alternative route would be to

follow the A590 to High Newton taking the Cartmel Fell road

adjacent to the Crown Inn. Ignoring the first right turning,

signposted to Lindale, drive for about 2.5 miles and enjoy one of

the finest views in the district over the valley. Passing 'Barrow

Wife' on the left and 'Hollin Foot' on the right, travel downhill and

take the first sharp right turn, where there is a finger post for High

Newton. (Blink and you'll miss it!)
