About this property

A stunning three-bedroom duplex apartment set in the popular Lakeland Village village of Backbarrow. This exceptional property offers a perfect blend of modern living and serene countryside charm, making it an ideal 2nd home or holiday let and is currently successfully holiday let and is hoped will be sold with ongoing bookings. The backdrop is formed by the historic ironworks dating back to 1711 and is a Scheduled Ancient Monument with evidence of this bygone industrial age and the blast furnace was one of the first charcoal-fired blast furnaces in Cumbria and believe to be the only remaining example of its type and is still evident in the charm of the surrounding buildings and yet this is a different world from how it must have been all those years ago.

The agent hasn't said which band this home is in; you can look it up on GOV.UK. In Westmorland and Furness, 2026/27 bills run from £1,672 a year in band A to £5,016 in band H.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Westmorland and Furness, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
