Lowspot Barn and Cottage are in Ravenstonedale Parish. Ravenstonedale is a picturesque village in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, at the foot of the Howgills and near the Lake District. This unique property offers a beautifully renovated 18th-century cottage alongside a semi-converted barn with views of Mallerstang Edge and Wild Boar Fell.

Ravenstonedale features award-winning pubs and hotels, a 9-hole golf course, a communal tennis court, and a pre-school nursery, all accessible from the property via various scenic public footpaths or by road. It is situated 5 miles from the popular market town of Kirkby Stephen and 11 miles from Sedbergh, both offering primary and secondary schools, pubs, restaurants, medical centres, a dentist, a variety of shops, and a weekly outdoor market. Tebay and the M6, the gateway to the Lake District, are just 8 miles away.

The property has been renovated retaining traditional features, such as the original 18th century stone fireplace and working Victorian open-range fire. Modern enhancements include double-glazing, a spa bathroom and full central heating.

Lowspot Cottage is ready to move into, with three reception rooms retaining original features, such as exposed beams, vaulted ceilings, a stone fireplace and a kitchen range. The accommodation is highly insulated and has been extended over the years to create spacious and bright living areas, maximising the great views.

A wooden balcony leads to a mezzanine home office or double bed sleeping loft. The master bedroom has an ensuite. There’s another double bedroom and a bathroom with a jacuzzi, jet shower, bidet and toilet.

Adjacent is the spacious Lowspot Barn. The groundwork has been completed and there is planning permission for a dwelling. Two suggested designs for the internal layout are shown on architect’s plans which include an open-plan upstairs living area. Which maximises the exceptional views on three sides. The plans also show how 4 en-suite bedrooms could be provided. This makes it a unique opportunity for guest accommodation, an Airbnb rental, a holiday home, or a separate residence. There is complete flexibility. Lowspot Barn is a blank canvas, offering a tremendous range of possibilities.

There is a large circular drive with ample parking and two separate gated entries. There is a detached, double garage and workshop with a hardstanding for additional parking. At the rear and side is an enclosed stone walled garden. This is a low-maintenance garden with mature fruit trees and raised vegetable and flower wooden planters. This could also create a formal garden with access to the rear garden.

Lowspot Cottage and Barn offers both a serene retreat and a fantastic investment opportunity. Whether you’re looking for a large family home or an investment, these two properties combine rural charm with flexible future development.
