A perfect new home in Penrith close to the Lake District
Following on from the extremely popular first phase, Persimmon Homes are delighted to present the next phase of Carleton Meadows. The development is located in the historic market town of Penrith in the scenic county of Cumbria and offers a wide range of properties.
Carleton Meadows is an easy 5-minute drive east of the town centre and all the local facilities of this lovely town. There's very convenient access to the M6 connecting Penrith with Carlisle to the north and Birmingham, Manchester, and Liverpool to the south. The A66 is the direct route west from the town into the glorious Lake District National Park via Keswick. To the east, you can head into the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and if you come off the M6 for Sedburgh, you'll be in the unspoilt landscape of Cumbria and the Yorkshire Dales National Park. What a great place to set up home.
Nestled in the beautiful Eden Valley, Penrith is positioned on the edge of the Lake District, with breathtaking views all around. The imposing ruins of the castle are a clear sign of the town's rich heritage as the former capital of Cumbria.
Residents of Carleton Meadows will enjoy the benefits of rural living within the stunning local countryside, together with excellent transport links and the wealth of amenities that this thriving market town has to offer. There are also plans for a village hall on the development and a bus route to link with Penrith town centre.
Local shops, cafés and restaurants can be found nearby, together with leisure activities close to home and the beautiful landscape of the Lake District to explore.
There's also a great choice of fantastic local schooling in the area, with well-regarded primary and secondary schools within walking distance of the development
Days out and weekends away couldn't be easier, with local amenities and places of interest nearby such as Rheged, Lakeland Birds of Prey centre and Ullswater Steamers. High above the town, Beacon Hill is great for walking and when you reach the top, you'll be rewarded with a magnificent view across the Eden Valley to the hills of Lakeland.
There are also excellent sports clubs within minutes of Carleton Meadows, such as football, rugby, squash, tennis and golf with a driving range.
