Location -

This property also has the added bonus of being situated in the delightful Cumbrian hamlet of Raughton.

Less than 15 minutes from the city centre of Carlisle but full of rural charm, Raughton is an extremely desirable place to live.

It’s nicely off the beaten track but still close to the shops and amenities in the city. The sought-after village of Dalston is only a couple of miles away where you can stock up on any essentials.

The Lake District National Park is so close too and in around 10/15 minutes you can be exploring the Northern fells.

You really do get the best of both worlds here.

For families with younger children, there’s the well-regarded Raughton Head Primary School (Ofsted Good) a short drive away.

There's also a primary and secondary school (Caldew School - Ofsted Good) in the neighbouring village of Dalston. The well regarded Nelson Thomlinson School in Wigton is also a great option if you live here or you could go possibly opt for Queen Elizabeth Grammar in Penrith.

If you're looking for fee-paying independent schools, there's a choice of excellent day or boarding schools nearby - Austin Friars or neighbouring Lime House School.

If you love the great outdoors, Raughton is the perfect base. You can enjoy real Cumbrian village life without paying the National Park premium.

If you need to travel further afield, you can be on the M6 at junction J42 in around 10 minutes. The West Coast Main Line at Carlisle connects you to London, Birmingham or Glasgow. London can be reached in just over 3 hours.
