Welcome to Nether Gayle, Woodman Lane, Cowan Bridge, Carnforth, LA6 2HT Well-lit with natural light and possessing a warm and generous personality, Nether Gayle is airy, spacious and versatile with a calm and relaxed energy that lends itself beautifully to family life and social occasions.    A glazed porch bids welcome into an impressive double height light filled entrance hall and gallery landing which together set the tone for the rest of this modern country home. Large and inviting, the living kitchen is the hub of the house and is ably complemented by a pantry, utility and boiler room, each providing essential functionality and storage. On the ground floor is the main guest bedroom with an ensuite wet room, it also introduces a degree of future proofing should single level living ever be required. Adjacent are two further double bedrooms and the house bathroom. Rising to the first floor and the open plan landing has two individual spaces, ideal for work, rest or play.  An opening from the landing connects to the second reception room, an unexpected and highly distinctive sitting room. The main bedroom is on the first floor, a generous room with an ensuite bathroom. This floor also offers extensive storage provision.  The gardens are an absolute delight and measure just under an acre. Thoughtfully and extensively stocked and well-tended by knowledgeable hands, they are bordered by Leck Beck and will appeal to anyone with green fingers who appreciates natural surroundings and the joy of resident and visiting wildlife. There are two greenhouses, a detached garage and plentiful parking, a kitchen garden and orchard, beyond which is an agricultural field of 2.9 acres. Combined, Nether Gayle offers 3.86 acres with the potential to curate your own rural lifestyle.  Surrounded by nature, Nether Gayle enjoys a prime position at the edge of the small hamlet of Overtown which lies off a quiet lane between Kirkby Lonsdale and Ingleton, it’s a well-connected and accessible location bringing all the benefits of rural living with none of the inaccessibility.   Location Should you be seeking a semi-rural lifestyle with good access to the surrounding countryside then as a location, the small hamlet of Overtown must be a contender. Whilst there are no services in the hamlet itself there is a shop, village hall and fitness gym within walking distance at one end of Woodman Lane in Cowan Bridge (0.6 miles) and there’s the very popular Highwayman Inn at the opposite end of the lane (1.4 miles distant) which hosts regular walks, a book club and calendar of seasonal themed events. Together, Kirkby Lonsdale (2 miles) and Ingleton (c. 5 miles) provide a great selection of shops and local services popular with both residents and visitors alike. In terms of access to the wider countryside Overtown is a prime location for exploring not just the undulating beauty of the Lune Valley but the National Parks of the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales as well as the AONBs of the Forest of Bowland and coastal Silverdale and Arnside to enjoy. So, whether you like to ramble, stride out, run, cycle or hack (there’s an equestrian centre offering livery at Burrow) this is a great location.  Lancaster is the nearest city and has much to offer all generations with an established cultural and music scene, a vast array of bars and restaurants serving up cuisines from around the world, an excellent range of high street and independent shops, a comprehensive offering of professional services, two universities (Lancaster and Cumbria) and good healthcare with both private and NHS hospitals.  Further afield, Leeds and Manchester are accessible by road and rail so whether for a daily or weekly commute or accessing a host of cultural delights, numerous cities are within reach.   To maintain social and business connections transportation links are convenient with access to the M6 at either J34 or J36 depending on the direction of travel and both Lancaster and Oxenholme (Kendal) have stations on the main West Coast line. The A65 is 0.6 miles distant at Cowan Bridge which provides the main route into the Yorkshire and the east of the county. Vendor insight We were told that there was a good community when we moved here and we’ve found it to be exactly so. Our neighbours are all friendly and helpful whilst being respectful of each other’s privacy.  We feel very remote when we’re here, but the reality is far from it. We have very easy access onto the main road and into local towns but rarely hear any traffic noise, just the noise of the beck which is great at lulling us to sleep.  Step inside  When the present owners purchased Nether Gayle in 2010, they set about a program of enhancement; removing an extension, remodeling and upgrading the remaining property and complementing it with a new extension, all of which took place over 2011/12. What is particularly striking is how wonderfully light it is. Many rooms are double if not triple aspect allowing light to flood in throughout the day, the views are also extra special, different aspects of the garden are captured and from the living kitchen and sitting room there is a far-reaching view towards Leck Fell.   Your tour starts at the attractive glazed entrance porch which has a pine clad ceiling rising high to the apex, a glazed door opens to the impressive double height light filled entrance hall where an open riser oak stairs leads to the gallery landing above, the glass balustrade enables an unrestricted line of vision and a great sense of openness. Natural light is a key element of the design here as it flows down through skylights which feature to great effect in the hall and landing, the sitting room and the principal bedroom.  The main living kitchen is an inviting and sociable room; perfect for family life and for hosting friends. There is space to cook (the separate pantry will no doubt bring a smile to the face of the keen cook), dine and a choice of seating areas, one in the bay window another around the stove. There are doors out to the garden on opposite elevations which encourage spilling outside during warmer weather. There are utility and boiler rooms off the hall, providing practical purpose and great storage. The utility room has a stable door to the garden and plenty of room for coat and boot storage, as the rear entrance it’s ideal if coming in after a wet or muddy walk. There are three double bedrooms on the ground floor, one of which has an attractively fitted wet room and is well suited as a guest room or if you liked the option of single level living.  The remaining two bedrooms share use of the house bathroom which is also off the passage, as is the study.  The first-floor landing is expansive and flexible, two connected open plan areas provide plenty of options for home working and dedicated area for hobbies. An opening the width of double doors links the landing to the second sitting room. Doors were originally planned but the openness proved too enticing and the throughfare was left without.  At the far end of the sitting room is a full wall of glazing which frames the view, the glass enclosed balcony beyond it enables an unrestricted view over the garden, orchard and field to the neighbouring countryside with Leck Fell beyond. Walking in, the window and view draws one forward, it’s totally captivating, but pause to take it all in; the contemporary Morso stove and the golden tones of the oak floor, it’s a calm and relaxing room, perfectly suited to a quiet hour with a favourite book, the French doors open providing a soundtrack of birdsong and the passing beck or a cosy afternoon on a rainy day watching a film by the fire.   The main bedroom is on the first floor; an airy and well-lit room with four skylights and a window in the gable framing a lovely green and leafy view over the garden to the trees along the banks of Leck Beck.  There’s great storage to be found on the first floor, a walk-in airing cupboard houses the hot water tank, there’s a second walk in shelved cupboard and various access points to the under eaves areas.  Internal doors are a contemporary light oak and all windows are double glazed with hardwood frames. To enable light to bounce round internally, the doors into the living kitchen and utility room are part glazed.  Vendor insight We spend most of our time in the living kitchen. When we were designing the house we didn’t realise how well used it would be and how perfect it would be when we are entertaining, in fact this is the best house we’ve ever had for entertaining. When friends join us for supper, it’s a lovely room to stay and linger after we’ve eaten; we have to positively encourage everyone upstairs for drinks and soft seats. The upstairs sitting room is lovely in the evenings and for daytime during winter weekends.  When the house is full of visiting family, it’s great to be able to spread out and be independently occupied but we’ve two rooms large enough for us to gather as well. The grandchildren absolutely love it here; the garden, the field and the beck are an adventure playground for them. For many years we had football nets in the orchard for them.  Step outside The back of the house faces southeast and the front northwest. First thing in the morning the sun comes in through the kitchen’s bay window where a pair of easy chairs are positioned to enjoy the view. The sitting room balcony above is “lovely for a mid-morning coffee”. By late morning and lunchtime the sun has moved round onto...
