Newbiggin House is a beautiful, 17th century, four-bedroom, period property set in 1.2 acres of mature gardens.

Set in the grounds of Newbiggin Hall just four miles from the city of Carlisle with easy access to the M6 motorway and southern bypass, it offers space and privacy with the added benefit of local amenities and an exclusive location with a fantastic community.

A sweeping, hedge lined driveway brings you into a large open area at the front of the property. A ha-ha wall runs along the boundary between the property and neighbouring field to offer an uninterrupted view of the countryside beyond. A truly unique feature here is the original, grade II listed ice house.

The house has been meticulously cared for with no expense spared during its ownership. It was extended, rewired, renovated and reroofed approximately 15 years ago.

As well as four double bedrooms, it has two reception rooms. The living room has exposed beams, a feature fireplace with a log burning stove and French doors giving access to the patio and gardens.

Upstairs, the master suite offers a walk in dressing room, a high quality ensuite bathroom with custom units and walk in shower and a balcony with a hot tub and views of the rear garden.

A special fourth bedroom is found high up in the central tower offering elevated views of the surrounding grounds.

Outside Newbiggin House the grounds are simply stunning. A large garden to the side of the property features fabulous mature trees, including oak, sycamore and an awe-inspiring redwood, standing over 100ft tall.

The property also has a large double garage plus dedicated office space or home gym.
