Description
This large Victorian house, formerly a coaching inn, is a stunning property in the heart of Kirkby Stephen, a vibrant market town in the Eden Valley. With its high ceilings, generous rooms, and original features, the house has been beautifully decorated throughout and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating. Currently run as a successful B&B by Carol Pepper, the property has averaged a turnover of £70,000-£80,000 over the past three years, with plenty of scope to increase income by extending opening periods, offering evening meals and afternoon teas, and further advertising. The property has five en-suite letting rooms on the first floor and four on the second, as well as a large guest lounge, bar area, and dining room. There is also a detached two-bedroom cottage in the rear yard, available by separate negotiation, which could provide owners' accommodation or extra income. With its central location, excellent schools, and scenic surroundings, this property offers a unique lifestyle opportunity as a family home or business.
