Grade II listed Armathwaite Place is now on the market with a guide price of £1.55m.
The estate, based in Armathwaite, is for sale with H&H Land & Estates and includes a tennis court, an orchard and an outdoor swimming pool.
Also included in the grounds are a courtyard, outbuildings and Clock House, with an additional coach house included that has planning permission to convert into two cottages.
It has seven bedrooms, five bathrooms and five reception rooms.
The whole sale, including all additional buildings and the 36 acres of gardens and woodlands, has a current recommended guide price of £1.55m.
Glenn Howard, branch manager at the Penrith office of H&H Land & Estates, said: “Armathwaite Place really is an opportunity not to be missed. Located within the thriving local community that surrounds the popular village of Armathwaite, the property is also set on the banks of a beautiful river, renowned for its salmon fishing and scenic walks.
“Despite its seclusion and peaceful setting, Armathwaite Place manages to remain very well connected. There are easy access links to the Lake District National Park, the M6 and the west coast main railway line, which connects London and Glasgow.
“As a result, we expect this property will appeal to many families looking to relocate to a country house in the north and all that comes with it, yet one which manages to still be only a few hours by train to the country’s bustling capital.”
The grounds have a selection of walled and kitchen gardens, including a large Victorian green house. Opening out to the parkland fields with the woodland in the distance, the grounds include an open-sided field shelter in the paddock, as well as former stables which could be recommissioned.
Glenn added: “Any buyer would be lucky to purchase this exceptional property. The gardens and grounds are the type of outdoor space increasingly desired in a post-lockdown world, and really do offer that peaceful country-side lifestyle that is continuing to be so in demand right now.”
