3 Situation and Description Pear Tree Farm takes full advantage of the elevated headland setting offering commanding views across the Solway Firth to the Scottish mainland and the town of Annan. Pear Tree Farm and Cottage will appeal to those looking to house an extended family or perhaps exploit the merits of the Hadrian's Wall World Heritage Site, the path of which passes through the village, populated by a steady flow of walkers and cyclists on the tourist trail. This coastal area is one which is renowned for its prolific birdlife and RSPB reserve, but in addition the opportunity exists to access many other areas of outstanding natural beauty in the north west corner of Cumbria i.e. The Lake District National Park to the south. The accommodation extends to a significant living space with recently created garden room off the courtyard, linking into a large purpose built snooker room, the whole principal living area being capable of generating a significant social space for entertainment and the like. There is a traditional farmhouse style kitchen, again with commanding views, off which are a range of comprehensive out offices and a study/office facility. The first floor bedroom accommodation extends to four principal rooms including a superb master bedroom with commanding views and picture windows, luxury bathroom and walk-in dressing room plus galleried library. The garden to the north is elevated, again with commanding views, significant privacy. The village itself benefits from a highly regarded primary school, part time post office also selling household essentials, local church and thriving Kings Head Public House and active village hall. Further afield is the market town of Wigton, some 9.5 miles distance and beyond that the Border City of Carlisle, some 15 miles distance. The northern relief road links the west side of the city to junction 44 of the M.6/M.7f4 thus creating easy routes north and south as well as east via the A.69 to Newcastle.
