If you’ve been dreaming of life on the edge of the city in a charming detached cottage full of character, warmth and potential… then welcome to Millgrove, Burgh-by-Sands. Tucked away to the west of Carlisle in one of the area’s most desirable villages, this delightful three-bedroom home offers the perfect blend of peaceful rural living with excellent connectivity to the city, the western bypass and key road networks - quote LI0465.
Millgrove is everything you’d hope for in a village cottage — full of soul, history and heart. Set within generous, mature gardens and surrounded by wide-open countryside to the front, back and sides, this home enjoys an enviable level of privacy and tranquillity.
Whether you imagine yourself watching sunsets over the fields, tending a vegetable patch or simply enjoying the stillness that comes with village life, Millgrove provides the perfect setting.
One of the most exciting features of this property is the large and wonderfully private garden, which opens the door to an array of possibilities. With a plot of this size, buyers could explore the potential for development — perhaps a building plot, subject to planning permission, or an extension to enlarge the cottage itself. Equally, you may choose to keep the garden exactly as it is: Lush, peaceful and beautifully established. The choice is entirely yours.
Lovingly owned and cared for by the same family for nearly forty years, Millgrove has been a treasured home and now awaits its next chapter. With a little creativity and vision, this cottage could be transformed into a truly spectacular forever home while retaining the charm that makes it so special.
Stepping inside, the sense of welcome is immediate. The entrance hall is surprisingly spacious, offering plenty of room for coats, boots and muddy paws after walks along the nearby country lanes. It feels like the kind of hallway that has greeted generations of family and friends — and is ready to greet many more.
From the hallway, doors lead into the open-plan dining lounge, the kitchen, a well-sized pantry, and the staircase rising to the first floor with an excellent under-stairs storage cupboard.
The kitchen is very much the heart of the home — a warm, inviting space fitted with a modern country-style kitchen offering generous work surfaces and room for appliances. A range cooker takes centre stage and will undoubtedly delight anyone who loves to cook or bake. Tiled splashbacks, vinyl flooring and natural light flooding through the window complete the space beautifully, creating a kitchen full of charm and practicality.
The dining lounge is another standout room — spacious, versatile and wonderfully homely. The living area features a cosy open fireplace that becomes the perfect focal point on cooler evenings, and the Georgian-style windows frame idyllic views across open fields.
The dining space is equally generous, with plenty of room for a large dining table where family gatherings, celebrations and Sunday lunches could be hosted for years to come. It’s the kind of room that lends itself to long conversations and cherished memories.
The walk-in pantry is a fantastic and increasingly rare feature, offering excellent storage for essentials, cookware and appliances. It also houses the gas boiler and provides additional space for white goods — a practical and very welcome addition to a cottage kitchen.
Ascending the staircase, a bright and well-proportioned landing leads to all three bedrooms and the family bathroom.
Both rear bedrooms are comfortable doubles, each offering peaceful views across open fields. The Georgian-style windows add charm and character, enhancing the cottage feel throughout.
To the front, the third bedroom is another light-filled double offering excellent flexibility as a guest room, home office or nursery.
The family bathroom is a generous size and features a white three-piece suite, part-tiled walls, chrome fittings and a built-in airing cupboard. With a little modernisation, this space could easily become a luxurious and relaxing retreat.
Externally, Millgrove continues to shine.
The gardens are exceptionally generous, established and beautifully private. This is a garden that offers something for everyone — from those who love to potter and plant, to families who want space to play, to anyone seeking a peaceful corner of the world to unwind. With a lawned area, patio, pergola, greenhouse and a large timber shed, the garden is fully equipped for outdoor living. The gravel driveway provides excellent off-road parking and adds to the overall convenience of the home.
And again, the land itself brings further potential — those seeking a project will appreciate the opportunity to explore planning for a separate dwelling or a substantial extension, while others may simply cherish the space and serenity that this large garden affords.
You'll just love this home, and the location is excellent too.
Burgh-by-Sands is a charming and historic Cumbrian village, best known for its peaceful rural setting and strong community spirit. Surrounded by open countryside and close to the Solway Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it offers endless opportunities for scenic walks, wildlife spotting and outdoor adventures.
The village benefits from a friendly local pub, a well-regarded primary school and a beautiful church, while still being only a short drive from Carlisle and the western bypass — making it the perfect blend of tranquillity and convenience.
Millgrove is a rare find: A charming detached cottage with soul, potential and a stunning setting, all within easy reach of Carlisle. A home that has been loved for decades — and one that is now ready to begin its next story.
