THE GIN CASE, KIRKOSWALD, PENRITH
THE GIN CASE, KIRKOSWALD, PENRITH
A substantial conversion of a former barn with two adjoining cottages, situated in the popular Eden Valley, providing spacious and versatile family
accommodation with approximately 2 acres of established woodland and gardens.
The property is situated in the Eden Valley, just under a
mile from the popular village of Kirkoswald which has
good road links via the A6 to Carlisle, Penrith, the
northern lakes and the M6 motorway.
The Gin Case was formally part of the Prospect Hill
Hotel, which was subdivided into five dwellings in a
courtyard style following the closure of the hotel due to
retirement in the 1990s. Three of the dwellings are
offered as part of this sale.
The principal dwelling is The Gin Case which provides
versatile family accommodation over two floors.
Immediately adjoining is the Granary Flat, a one
bedroomed first floor flat which has been let on an
assured shorthold tenancy (AST). Subject to obtaining
the relevant planning consents, the flat could be
incorporated as part of the principal dwelling. The
Coach House is also used as a letting cottage and
provides one bedroom accommodation over two floors.
This has been let out on and AST basis, but could also
be incorporated as part of the principal dwelling if
required, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
Each of the properties would benefit from some
internal upgrading.
The village of Kirkoswald has a church, a school, a shop,
two public houses, a doctors surgery and the
neighbouring village of Lazonby has a Co-Operative
mini mart, a junior school, public houses and an open
air swimming pool. A wider range of facilities are
available at Penrith and Carlisle including
supermarkets, high street shops, restaurants and both
primary and secondary schooling.
