Description

A wonderful property both style and substance; a deceptively spacious three bedroom semi detached cottage, tastefully restored by the current owners, this fabulous property is tucked away in a hamlet of cottages and enjoys incredible views of the surrounding Borrowdale Valley. Exposed brick feature walls, vaulted entrance hallway with oak and glass balustrade are impressive along with, doors opening onto the garden giving the open living space maximum light with this stunning, sympathetic extension. The accommodation is well proportioned and seamlessly blends character and charm with modern convenience. Externally there is a driveway, potential for a garage, a good sized garden from which to enjoy the outstanding views can be enjoyed. Currently used as a holiday let, but would be equally suitable as a wonderful permanent home, a rare combination to come to market, viewing highly recommended. 



The property is approx 8 miles south of Keswick on the B5289 road in the wonderful Borrowdale valley, at the east foot of the Honister Pass and to the south of Derwentwater. Keswick is a bustling market town situated in the Lake District National Park and Unesco World Heritage Site about 18 miles west of Penrith and junction 40 of the M6 Motorway via the A66.



Mains electricity & water; drainage is via a package treatment plant; oil-fired central heating, double glazing installed throughout;  A date patch panel supplies cat 6 data to all the bedrooms for smart TV's, along with three ceiling mounted WI-FI discs hard wired provide strong coverage inside and out.  Please note: The mention of any appliances/services within these particulars does not imply that they are in full and efficient working order.



From the office head on to St John's Street then right on to Derwent Street. At the end of the street with the George Fisher outdoor shop ahead of you, bear left on to Borrowdale Road. Upon reaching the roundabout, head straight over on to the B5289 passing Grange and Rosthwaite.
