4 bed detached house for sale

Cherry Trees, The Green, Dalston, Carlisle, Cumbria CA5

A truly special sandstone home in the heart of the sought after village of Dalston. Cherry Trees is offered with no onward chain and is a must view house, not just a drive by. It is deceptive, you really will be in for a lovely surprise when you step inside.

Some properties just have that feeling the moment you arrive, and this is certainly one of them. Beautifully presented, full of character and renovated to an exceptionally high standard, this impressive sandstone home combines timeless period charm with stylish, contemporary living.

Situated in the heart of this much sought after village, the property has wonderful curb appeal, a driveway to the side and an open outlook that immediately gives you a sense of space. Step inside, however, and it becomes clear just how deceptive this home is. Every room is generous, beautifully proportioned and filled with natural light, with many enjoying more than one window. Despite the wonderful sense of space, there is a real warmth and cosiness throughout.

You enter through the side of the property into a welcoming hallway, where beautiful parquet flooring immediately sets the tone. There is also a handy downstairs WC, perfect for everyday family life and guests.

The main living room is a real showstopper. It is a substantial, elegant reception room, flooded with natural light yet retaining that wonderfully warm and inviting atmosphere. It feels like the perfect grown up space to relax, unwind and enjoy at the end of the day.

For something a little more relaxed, there is another fantastic reception room currently enjoyed as a cinema room. Just imagine cosy evenings in here, the lights down, your favourite film on and, of course, the popcorn at the ready! It could equally work beautifully as a family room, playroom, home office, bedroom five or whatever your lifestyle requires.

Then comes the heart of the home... The kitchen. And what a kitchen it is. Beautifully appointed and finished to a high standard, it is both stylish and incredibly practical, with a fabulous central island, quality fittings and a superb hot water tap. There is also a brilliant pantry, providing that all important extra storage.

The clever layout continues with a lovely snug area directly off the kitchen. It is an ideal spot to sit and chat while someone is cooking, a relaxed place for morning coffee or somewhere to gather when entertaining. From here, you move through to the conservatory, currently used by the owners as a beautiful dining room.

The flexibility here is fantastic. With three reception areas, a snug off the kitchen and generous proportions throughout, this is a home that can easily adapt to different families, lifestyles and stages of life.

Upstairs, there are four excellent double bedrooms, all generously proportioned and several enjoying dual aspects. There is certainly no shortage of bedroom space here.

The bathroom is another real highlight. Contemporary, luxurious and beautifully finished, it features a stunning freestanding pebble bath alongside a large walk in shower. Whether you fancy sinking into a long, relaxing bubble bath at the end of the day or stepping into the shower to awaken the senses in the morning, this is a bathroom designed to make everyday life feel just a little more special.

Outside, the gardens are a real treat and, we suspect, will surprise you. The rear garden feels wonderfully private and established, with mature trees, beautiful planting, several different patio areas and a lawn. It is a garden with plenty of personality and space for outdoor dining, entertaining, relaxing or simply enjoying a little peace and quiet.

There is also an incredibly useful separate building, accessed through the garden, which incorporates a practical kitchen style area with fridge freezer and storage. This then leads through to the garage, offering excellent versatility whether you need somewhere for the car, a workshop, hobbies or simply plenty of storage.

This is a home with character, elegance, space and a wonderful sense of warmth. It has been thoughtfully renovated and beautifully maintained, with a high end finish throughout, yet it still retains the charm and personality you would hope to find in such a lovely period sandstone property.

A property of this calibre really does need to be viewed to appreciate the quality, scale and versatility, book your viewing today - contact me on or email me at
