Town End Lodge, Troutbeck, Windermere, Cumbria, LA23 1LB

Set within the picture perfect Lake District village of Troutbeck, Town End Lodge is a traditional detached Lakeland barn conversion; offering three bedroom family accommodation over two floors with the living accommodation upstairs designed to take in the beautiful views of the surrounding Troutbeck valley. Dating back to the 17th century, originally part of the former farmhouse behind, the barn was converted in the 1960’s, with great care taken to retain and highlight the beautiful original features of the property. Offering views over the Troutbeck valley and a quiet setting within a small cluster of properties, the property truly offers the best of both worlds as the seemingly remote location does not compromise on easy accessibility to the Lake District hotspots. In addition, there is an integral garage, private parking space, patio and garden area making this a versatile package that would be suited to a range of buyers, those looking for an idyllic Lake District retreat or holiday let investment or even a permanent residence. 

The peaceful village of Troutbeck was once home to Beatrix Potter and it’s easy to see why you would fall in love with this location.

Windermere, Bowness and Ambleside are all within a five to ten minute drive, offering a great range of amenities and activities for those of all ages.
