Description
Gapshield Farm sits in an elevated position with superb far-reaching views over the rolling countryside northeast of Brampton. The farmhouse, built in 1863, is a brick construction with rendered facades and slate roof, extending to 2,850 sq ft with five double bedrooms, family bathroom, and separate shower room. The property requires some updating, but has a wonderful position and proportions.
Adjacent to the farmhouse, a range of traditional and modern farm buildings are arranged around a concrete yard, providing significant storage and potential for development into additional residential or commercial space. The farmstead includes a workshop, stable, and wash house, as well as modern buildings such as a cattle shed, sheep shed, and cubicle sheds. The surrounding land, excluding the farmstead, extends to approximately 451.58 acres, gently undulating between 200m and 290m above sea level, and is divided into high quality mowing, grazing, and rough fell/moorland land, as well as a small woodland coppice and internal track system.
