Built in 1830, Haverigg House strikes an impressive pose, symmetrically fronted in late Georgian style, with a pillared portico entrance and imposing black painted front door. Reputedly built for a fruit merchant, Haverigg House also served as home, surgery and dispensary to a doctor in 1870. Its business potential has continued to be capitalised on throughout the centuries, latterly purchased as an exclusive restaurant and most recently run as a hotel.

Now a family home once more, the potential for profit remains; its spacious car park has recently been rented out for business use. A double garage also provides additional parking.

Step up to the front door and on into the broad and bright entrance hall, where remarkably retained and restored original features instantly impress in the high, ornately corniced ceilings and the arched window on the turn of the staircase ahead.

Latte-coloured carpet runs the length of the entrance hall, continuing through to the sitting room on the left, a sumptuously-sized room bathed in light courtesy of its many full-height sash windows. Dressed in their original shutters and drawing in the greenery of the acres of garden, pause in the cushioned window seats to admire the view.

Warmth emanates from the open fire, whilst a truly hospitable ambience is created courtesy of the bar, to the rear of this expansive room, once two now opened into one sociable space. Arched French doors open onto the newly installed decking, connecting you instantly with the outdoors.

Subtle décor of shimmering shades of wallpaper and soft classic tones, combines with contemporary perks and privileges, creating a home that feels modern whilst retaining its sense of period and heritage.

Returning to the entrance hall, across the way, discover the formal dining room, simply designed for Christmas and celebrations, where an ornate, original plaster rose adorns the high ceiling, adding grandeur. A duo of shuttered sash windows delivers the outdoors in, filling the room with natural light.

Tucked off from the dining room discover an office and small gym, quietly tucked away from the main footfall of the home. Once the dispensary and waiting room for the doctor's surgery, a separate utility room with plumbing for a washer and dryer leads off from these rooms, providing handy everyday 'boot room' access straight out to the driveway.

Returning to the main entrance hall, continue ahead along the side of the staircase, sneaking a peek through a door on the right. Once the original kitchen to the home, this dusty pink carpeted snug serves as a library, with fitted aubergine units containing shelving, storage cupboards for games, DVDs and CDS alongside housing a television. A speaker system in this room connects to Alexa and the TV.

Cleverly designed with family in mind, this room can also serve as an accessible bedroom, replete with its own ensuite containing WC, wash basin and shower; ideal for elderly relatives.

Returning to the entrance hall, continue on to the modern kitchen, bespoke designed by the current owners to work seamlessly with the surroundings.

This carefully crafted kitchen by Stamper Lloyd features a full complement of quality appliances including cooker, microwave cooker, warming drawer, wine chiller (for white and red), larder fridge, larder freezer, induction hob, extractor hood and dishwasher.

Sociably styled, take a seat at the breakfast bar-island topped in white quartz to balance the Hague blue and Ammonite of the cabinetry, whose country feel pays homage to the heritage of the home.

Modern at heart, bifold doors connect the kitchen to the glorious outdoors and views of the fells, providing easy access to the decking for outdoor feasts and barbecues as the ceiling speaker system plays your summer soundtrack. In the winter months, snuggle up in the snug area, beside the chic and contemporary glass fronted Dru Metro gas fire, soaking up the snow-capped views of Scafell Pike.

Returning to the entrance hall, ascend the Georgian staircase, pausing to absorb the views from the grand bowed window on the half landing on route to the first floor.

Second on the right, discover the first of four large bedrooms, where a pair of tall sash windows capture views out over the countryside. Shimmering wallpaper is in keeping with the grandeur of the home, whilst an ensuite with shower, wash basin, and WC offers contemporary comfort and convenience. Next door to this bedroom is a spacious and light dressing room.

Across the way a super-king-size bedroom, also drawing the verdant outdoors in through a tall sash window, benefits from an ensuite featuring bath with overhead shower, vanity unit wash basin and WC.

Currently housing a striking four poster bed, peep through to the master bedroom. Dressed in chic wallpaper, wake up to country views through the vast sash windows, where Scafell stands proudly in the distance. Freshen up in the spacious ensuite, featuring freestanding slipper bath, separate shower, wash basin and WC.

Take the stairs up once more to the second floor, a private level ideal as a self-contained suite for guests or teenagers longing for their own independence and privacy. To the left, step up to a room ideal as a study, snug lounge or dressing room, where a broad window offers elevated views of the rolling countryside beyond. Tucked off this room an ensuite contains separate bath, shower, wash basin and WC.

Across the landing, the final bedroom captures phenomenal views out to Scafell and the Lake District peaks. Ample storge is available in the walk-in wardrobe with a further ensuite featuring shower.

The Coach House
Refurbished in 2019, discover the attached Coach House, accessed through from the kitchen or via its own separate entrance. Containing six ensuite bedrooms, one of which has its own living room and garden terrace access, this section of the home has an incredibly modern feel.

Also furnished with a contemporary kitchen featuring all the essential appliances alongside a communal living area, these rooms are currently rented out, on a monthly basis, to workers at nearby Sellafield, highlighting the income potential of this home.

Garden and grounds
Step outside to appreciate the peace and tranquility of the setting of Haverigg House, nestled within two acres of lush green gardens. Relax on the sun-kissed decking or take a stroll through the grounds, dappled with ancient trees which provide shelter and shade.

Springtime sees the garden truly shine in a carpet of daffodils, snowdrops and crocuses, discovered alongside the stream running between ponds alive with nature. Birds and other wildlife are regular visitors to the gardens of Haverigg House.
