INTRODUCTION A luxury second floor two bedroom apartment within a historic Grade 2* Listed building, set within extensive communal gardens alongside and with amazing views across the River Eden and the open countryside beyond. This spacious property, extending almost to 2000ft2, is one of only twelve iconic residences created within the building when it was redeveloped in 2003. All on one level and beautifully presented this immaculate apartment features a spacious sitting room with wonderful views, fitted kitchen, en-suite master bedroom and a second double bedroom. Family bathroom with quality fittings. It is superbly presented and presents a rare opportunity to acquire a very special property either as a permanent or second home, within access to north Cumbria, the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales and Northumberland. Holme Eden Hall is one of only two Calendar Houses in England, so called for the 365 windows for the days of the year, 52 chimneys for the weeks, 12 corridors to represent the months, 7 entrances for the days or the week and 4 floors to represent the seasons. The River Eden is a premier salmon fishing river and the Hall is adjacent to the renowned Warwick Hall beat. The apartment comes with its own fishing right of the Cairn beck, which is located at the rear of the building.

HISTORY Built in 1833 in a Tudor style for the then prominent Peter Dixon, head of Peter Dixon & Sons, a famous shipping and cotton milling company, Holme Eden Hall was constructed as his family seat and was designed by the renowned Newcastle upon Tyne architect John Dobson. Following Peter Dixon’s death, the estate was put up for auction, and being concerned for its future it was purchased by Mr Liddell of Warwick Hall, the adjoining estate, who subsequently bequeathed the property to an order of Benedictine nuns, who remained at Holme Eden Abbey as it was renamed, until 1983 when the order was disbanded. It briefly returned to private ownership, before being sold to become a nursing home in 1985. In 2003 Holme Eden Hall was re-developed by local builders Cumbrian Homes Limited.

LOCATION The Village of Warwick Bridge is located in the Eden Valley, close to the Lake District National Park. The area is perfect either as a permanent base or as a holiday/weekend retreat being close to some of the most famous areas in the north of England. The ancient city of Carlisle and the World Heritage site of Hadrian’s Wall are both close by as is the Solway Firth, Scottish Borders and the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The regional cities of Newcastle upon Tyne, Manchester, Glasgow and Edinburgh are easily accessible. Whilst the village may enjoy rural surroundings and certainly Holme Eden Hall has an air of timelessness about it, modern day facilities and services are close by and the area is well served by rail transport, with Carlisle station being on the West Coast line. The M6 - at Junction 43 - is close by. Local sporting facilities include Carlisle, Brampton and Eden Golf courses and Carlisle Racecourse, along with numerous high class fishing rivers. The proximity to the National Parks and upland area provide the base for many outdoor pursuits and interests.
