SITUATION
Pump House Cottage was originally constructed for the Water
Board in the early 1900's and remained in their ownership for
almost 70 years. Located at the convergence of Old and New
Water with the River Gelt the cottage provides a fabulous
secluded position above Casltle Carrock, with popular bird
watching locations and walks on the doorstep. The property
is also located within the North Pennines AONB. The vibrant
village of Castle Carrock is around 3 miles by car and
provides a good Public House, Primary School, village hall
and church. A little further on is the market town of
Brampton, with an excellent range of amenities including a
popular secondary school and the A69, for access to Carlisle
and Newcastle with its International Airport. Hadrian's Wall
World Heritage Site is also readily accessib le.
Carlisle, 13 miles to the west is the region's capital and has a
superb range of social, leisure and retail opportunities. There
is an attractive central pedestrianised area and an impressive
cathedral and castle. The city benefits from being on the
West Coast Mainline which provides fast and frequent
services to London from 3 hours 23 minutes and non-stop to
Glasgow. The city's central railway station serves many
other destinations including the Lake District, West Cumbria,
Edinburgh, Newcastle, Manchester, Manchester Airport and
Birmingham.
ACCOMMODATION
The internal accommodation has been extensively
refurbished by the current owner and retains a considerable
amount of character. The dining kitchen features a range of
integrated appliances and double doors to a paved patio with
an external power socket. A roof window floods the room
with natural light. The sitting room leads from this and has a
dual aspect. A large multi fuel stove sits within the fireplace.
A second reception room also benefits from a multi fuel
stove. There are two bathrooms within the property, both of
which are on the ground floor, one having a shower and the
other a bath. To the first floor there are three bedrooms, two
of which are comfortable doubles and the third is a single.
The property would make a wonderful home, but would be
equally suited as a second home, offering a peaceful retreat
from big city living or as a holiday letting subject to obtaining
the necessary permissions.
OUTISDE
Set within approximately 0.3 acres of ground the property
has ample parking. A generous walled patio is accessed from
the kitchen and steps lead up from it to a large area of lawn.
Located within the grounds and constructed at the same time
as the property is a water measuring station, which is the
property of United Utilit ies. The water supply for the property
is treated within and supplied directly to the property from it.
SERVICES
Mains water (Concessionary supply) and electricity. Oil fired
central heating. Private septic tank drainage. Broadband is
availab le.

mile in length, at the end of which is a small single width
bridge.
