Scenic seven-acre property in Little Salkeld on the market

The expansive land upon which it sits, stretching approximately seven acres, features views across a serene landscape, featuring the meandering Briggle Beck that flows into the River Eden, as well as a commanding viaduct.

A grand driveway invites guests to New Mill, an 'imposing yet picturesque' residence that beautifully contrasts with its surroundings.

Great care has been taken to blend modern luxury and timeless charm in the property's development.

A Zoopla listing describes how the 'meticulous renovation' reflects a dedication to 'impeccable standards'; original features have been 'thoughtfully preserved' to retain character and warmth to the already 'exciting' house.

Outbuildings present possibilities for further development, giving prospective owners the opportunity to adjust the property according to their tastes and needs.

Upon entering New Mill through the entrance porch and sun room, visitors are greeted by a striking entrance hallway featuring an original stone lintel dated from 1812 over the doorway to the living room.

The living room itself boasts an original Georgian oven with a sandstone surround, which has been 'superbly preserved and reclaimed'.

According to the agent, the fifth bedroom could also be converted into an office or study, offering versatility to the property's layout.
