Description

Brow Edge How Head is a generously proportioned traditional Lakeland property, currently with 3 bedrooms. Positioned in an enviable location with magnificent panoramic fell and lake views over the adjoining countryside towards Coniston Old Man and the surrounding Coniston Fells. Forming a substantial end part of an original Lakeland farm dating back to the 18th Century, which has subsequently been split into three properties. 

Brow Edge is arguably in the prime position relative to the other properties with wide unrestricted views. Although now in need of complete modernisation throughout, this generously proportioned property, laid out internally in the 1980’s with many stud wall partitions would be versatile enough to provide a range of different room layouts. With large kitchen diner, sun room, living room and study alongside an upstairs lounge and bedrooms. The majority of the rooms enjoy the breathtaking panoramic vista.

Located on the east side of Coniston Water, close to the popular Lake District village of Coniston and is set amongst superb scenery of the Lakeland fells. It looks across to Coniston village, Coniston Water and Coniston Old Man and Yewdale valley. The property is well placed for numerous country walks from the doorstep.
