the inherent character of the property and the surrounding land and to create a
sustainable lifestyle this property encapsulates all that the good life has to offer.

LAND & GROUNDS
In total High Langdale is positioned with 2.8 acres of land and grounds which have
undergone as thorough a restoration as the property itself.
The gardens to the rear are delightful with well stocked cottage garden style borders
and lawn which gently rises to the the west with a BBQ entertaining area to the top
of the formal garden, with a well-positioned seating area well sited to take in the view
across the house, the valley and towards the coast in the distance. The grounds are a
mixture of mature woodlands and wild garden.
Within the wood is a large timber studio; in need of some repair, but presenting an
opportunity to create a peaceful home studio or office. A newly built tree house is
positioned on a mature fir, and there are walkways intersecting throughout the
grounds and a small level holding paddock. A natural spring fed pond and landscaped
wild water garden with irises, reeds and lilies stands to the side of the drive on the
approach to the house.
A substantial 70ft polytunnel stands within the grounds, the grounds are especially
productive and there is real scope to create a sustainable lifestyle with vegetable and
soft fruit gardens.
