Description

Location From the centre of Coniston, which is well served by a variety of shops, cafes, public houses, a post office and churches, take the A593 as if heading towards Torver passing the petrol filling station on your left and continuing around the gentle curve in the road where Campbell House is then found on the left hand side opposite the gently sloping meadow on the right. There is parking in the private car park for the development.

Description This delightfully bright and spacious purpose built 2 double bedroomed apartment combines lovely views to both the front and rear with excellent convenience to the village centre. Campbell House was built in 1988 to provide accommodation for active folk aged 55 years and over and provides the perfect permanent residence or second home in this delightful part of the National Park. The accommodation includes a bright living room, a stylish fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms, bathroom and communal car parking.

Set back from the road this sunny apartment enjoys views to the east looking over the school playing fields below towards glistening Coniston Water with Grizedale Forest beyond, and west looking over fields to afford glimpses of the upper reaches Coniston Old Man, Brim Fell and Great How Crags.

The location itself could hardly be better - all that Coniston village has to offer is just a short stroll away, whilst for the more energetic and adventurous, the Lake shore and the high fells are also accessible on foot from the property.

The apartment, like the building as a whole, is very nicely presented and includes a lovely modern fitted-kitchen, a sunny living room, two good double bedrooms and a bathroom. There is car parking provision for the apartments within the grounds, whilst the communal gardens themselves are easily managed. The apartments here can be enjoyed as permanent residences or second homes, but cannot be commercially holiday let - giving a much more relaxed and homely feel to this attractive little development. A splendid opportunity not to be missed.
