Morland, Penrith, CA10

Step inside Rose Haven, and you’ll find not just a house, but a home full of heart, history, and warmth. Nestled in the peaceful village of Morland in the Eden Valley, this three-bedroom home has undergone a complete and thoughtful renovation by the current owners. Every detail, from the lovingly restored original woodwork to the carefully selected finishes, speaks to a place that has been cherished and cared for. Rose Haven is more than just a home; it’s a piece of history. The owners have a range of documents dating back to the 1700s, one of which is framed in the main bedroom—a beautiful reminder of the legacy that surrounds this property. It’s a home where the past and present blend seamlessly!

The renovations are extensive and meticulous. All original woodwork has been treated with a 25-year guarantee, while the entire home has been replastered in a sympathetic style. A full rewire has been completed with certification, ensuring peace of mind. The plumbing has been updated, and the bathroom replaced, bringing modern comfort to the space. Storage heaters have been installed for efficient economy 7 heating, and the house and outbuilding roofs have been replaced and meet building regulations. Additional upgrades include a new water heater situated in the main bedroom cupboard, loft insulation to current standards, and new traditional style double-glazed windows throughout.

The heart of the home is the hand-built kitchen by Dunham of Hexham, a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. The kitchen’s timeless elegance and functionality are complemented by a dresser, which is included in the sale. Every meal prepared here is a celebration of both style and practicality.

Step into this beautiful, cozy, yet surprisingly spacious dining and lounge area, where every detail has been carefully designed to offer warmth and comfort. The double-glazed windows, with their charming slate ledges, offer a peaceful view of the front garden, inviting the morning light to fill the room. The beamed ceiling above adds character, giving the space a welcoming, rustic feel. A perfectly positioned corner arrangement creates an intimate dining nook—a space where you can enjoy meals with loved ones, or simply sip your morning coffee, soaking in the tranquility of your surroundings. As you move seamlessly into the lounge area, you'll be drawn to the triple aspect windows, each framing a unique view of the front, rear, and side, all with their own slate window ledges, allowing natural light to flood the room. At the heart of the space lies a Jotul woodburning stove, nestled on a slate hearth with a wooden surround. It’s more than just a feature—it’s a place for gathering, warming up on cold winter nights, and creating memories. The beamed ceiling above, complemented by spotlights, creates a sense of openness while maintaining a cozy atmosphere. Clever design touches are everywhere. Built-in cabinets have been thoughtfully integrated into the space, offering both practical storage, an elegant TV stand and shelving. A traditional style UPVC door leads you out to the front of the property, offering easy access to the outside world. In the far corner, the use of space is both smart and stylish—a custom bookshelf area, ideal for displaying your favourite reads or personal treasures. And beneath the stairs, a hidden gem of ample storage awaits, with a small window looking out to the rear. The flagged stone floor, along with carefully positioned shelving and lighting, adds charm and function to this delightful nook. This living space is more than just a room—it’s a sanctuary. It’s a place to unwind, to connect with family, and to embrace the comfort of home. From the cozy corners to the inviting hearth, this is a room where you’ll find peace, joy, and a sense of belonging.

Step into Bedroom One, a serene and spacious retreat that feels like a true sanctuary. With its beautiful beamed ceiling, this room offers a sense of timeless charm and warmth. The double- glazed window, with its classic slate window ledge, invites natural light to spill in, framing a tranquil view of the front garden. Wall lighting and a central ceiling light create the perfect ambiance for relaxing or unwinding after a busy day. The carpeted floor adds a comforting touch, while the electric storage heater ensures the room remains cozy throughout the seasons. A full wall of fitted wardrobes with wooden panelled doors provides generous storage, keeping your space tidy and organized, making it not only a restful haven but a practical one too.

Bedroom Two is a delightful space that invites you to rest, relax, and make it your own. With dual aspect windows that overlook both the front and rear of the property, the room is bathed in natural light throughout the day, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The wooden panelled ceiling adds character and a touch of rustic charm, warmth and personality to the room. Whether you envision a peaceful retreat or a vibrant, multi-functional space, there’s ample room for a double bed and additional furniture to suit your needs. The electric heater ensures warmth, while the carpeted floor adds comfort underfoot. A loft hatch allows access to the roof space for storage, further adding to the practicality of this inviting room. This is more than just a bedroom—it’s a space where you can truly feel at home, creating your own personal oasis.

One of the home’s practical features is its office, which can be easily used as a good spare bedroom. The sofa in this room is a pull-out double sofa bed, which once extended fits snugly up to the shelving unit. The owners have chosen a desk which can be easily removed, the top sliding under the bed and the trestle legs stored in the outbuilding. This space could also be arranged as a single bedroom or with bunk beds, offering versatility and convenience for growing families or guests.

The gardens around Rose Haven are truly a retreat. The front garden enjoys the morning sun, making it the perfect spot for a peaceful cup of tea to start the day. The side garden, a suntrap from mid-morning onwards, is wonderfully private and sheltered—a complete haven for outdoor relaxation.

The front garden boasts beautiful, established plants, with an apple tree to the left of the gate, an ornamental cherry to the right, and a small plum tree nestled nearby. Alongside the outbuilding, a damson tree adds charm and a fruitful harvest—though you’ll need to act quickly to beat the birds to the crop!

The owners have also thought ahead with planning permissions. Plans have been drawn for a porch addition to the main entrance, a project they would have completed if they were staying. There are also drawings for converting the outbuilding into an office and shower room, with easy access to mains services, making it an ideal space for a home business or guest accommodation. While they did not proceed with planning approval, the parish council expressed no objections, and the plans are available for review.

The home has been set up for comfort and ease, with a woodburner that has served them well—logs are delivered from Bolton, a quick and efficient service that ensures cozy winter nights by the fire. Parking is available "on street", with a parking area just beyond the outbuilding with space for 2 cars. 

The village itself is quiet and peaceful, yet full of life. There’s always something going on if you want to get involved, and the local cafe offers delicious food and sells basic essentials. Sainsbury’s and Morrisons deliver, making everyday living convenient and easy. Rose Haven is a rare gem—a place where comfort, history, and modern convenience come together in perfect harmony. Whether you're relaxing in the sun-drenched garden, enjoying the warmth of the woodburner, or simply appreciating the timeless beauty of the property, Rose Haven offers a truly special place to call home. Let this be the place where your own memories are made.
