Description

Occupying an enviable position within the sought-after village of Field Broughton, Egg Pudding Stone is a charming country property offering an increasingly rare combination of a beautifully converted stone barn, substantial outbuildings and generous grounds extending to approximately 2.67 acres.

Field Broughton remains one of South Cumbria's most desirable villages, perfectly positioned between the historic village of Cartmel and town of Grange-over-Sands. The surrounding area offers an outstanding range of leisure opportunities, from walking and cycling through the Lake District National Park to sailing on Windermere and exploring the spectacular Cumbrian coastline. Excellent road links via the A590 provide convenient access to Junction 36 of the M6, making the property equally suited as a permanent residence, second home or countryside retreat.

Constructed in traditional Lakeland stone beneath a slate roof, this characterful single-storey barn conversion perfectly balances rustic charm with practical accommodation. A private driveway leads through the attractive grounds to the property.

The house has been sympathetically converted from its former life as an agricultural building to provide comfortable accommodation whilst retaining much of its original character and appeal. The house is centred around a welcoming dining area which flows into the fitted kitchen at one side, creating a sociable living space ideal for everyday family life. Beyond, a separate family room enjoys an abundance of natural light and opens directly onto the attractive stone flagged courtyard, providing a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. For those winter months this area is set around a cosy wood burning stove

The accommodation extends to two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom offers generous proportions and enjoys peaceful views over the surrounding grounds, whilst the second bedroom provides equally comfortable accommodation for family or guests. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the internal layout, resulting in a home that is both practical and beautifully presented.

A particular feature of Egg Pudding Stone is the substantial detached outbuilding building which extends to approximately 1,663 square feet. Offering exceptional versatility, the building currently provides a self-contained area alongside an impressive range of storage accommodation. The principal storage area is complemented by additional stores and ancillary rooms, making the building ideally suited for workshop space, secure storage, hobbies, collections or a variety of business and lifestyle uses. Equally, purchasers may wish to investigate further opportunities for adaptation or development, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Externally, the grounds are one of the property's defining features. Extending to approximately 2.67 acres, they provide an attractive blend of landscaped gardens, mature woodland and open land.

The beautifully maintained gardens are set mainly at the rear of the property and provide lawns, mature planting and a superb stone-flagged terrace that enjoys an ideal aspect for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond, the adjoining 0.78 acre woodland creates a peaceful natural space, rich in wildlife and offering wonderful seasonal colour throughout the year. The additional parcel of land and vegetable garden provide excellent opportunities for those wishing to embrace a more self-sufficient lifestyle, whether through growing produce, keeping livestock or simply enjoying the freedom that such generous grounds provide.

Beyond the gardens lies a further parcel of land extending to approximately 0.57 acres, situated at the northern boundary of the holding. Together with the established vegetable garden, this additional land offers excellent scope for those seeking a more self-sufficient lifestyle, whether through growing produce, keeping some livestock or simply enjoying additional outdoor space.
