8 Railway Cottages, Newby Bridge, Nr Ulverston, Cumbria, LA12 8AW

The Entrance Porch is light and bright with cupboard currently housing the tumble drier. This is an excellent space for wet coats, muddy boots or dirty dogs to dry off! Door in to the Utility Room. A very useful room and freeing up lots of space in the Kitchen, with fridge freezer, slimline dishwasher and washing machine. The Dining Kitchen is spacious with ample space for a dining table and internal window to the Porch. Fire place recess and wooden/ceramic flooring. The Kitchen is furnished with a range of white wall and base cabinets with stainless steel sink, electric oven and ceramic hob. Large under-stairs cupboard. Door to the 'Inner Lobby' with stairs to the First Floor and Living Room. This cosy and light room has a window overlooking the pretty Garden with the odd steam train passing by just beyond - a real treat! Two recessed cupboards and delightful wood burning stove.

From the Inner Lobby the stairs lead to the First Floor. Bedroom 1 is a well proportioned double Bedroom with charming outlook over the garden, railway line and countryside beyond. Bedroom 2 is a large single Bedroom with rear aspect (currently with 3/4 bed but ideal for bunk beds perhaps). The Bathroom has a 3 piece white suite of WC, pedestal wash hand basin and bath with shower over.

Outside is a small 'Yard' with boiler cupboard and oil tank. The Garden is to the front aspect and is pretty with raised 'cobbled' Patio and lower gravel area. A real gem, pretty and sunny with some well established plants and shrubs and the unique charm of the steam trains chugging along at the bottom of the Garden - wonderful! There is a useful timber storage Shed, designated private Parking space and Visitor Parking. 

Location Situated in a quiet location close to the Swan Hotel at the foot of Lake Windermere. This Cottage is one of a small terraced row of similar properties. The attractions of the inner Lake District are a short car ride away and the historic market town of Ulverston with Railway Station and range of amenities is approximately 10 minutes by car. Convenient for the A590 but just far enough away to not be bothered by it, yet close enough to be very handy for the commuters!

To reach the property follow the A590 heading to Newby Bridge, upon reaching the roundabout take the first exit and then the first right signposted Lakeside. Proceed past The Swan Hotel, over the railway bridge and turn immediately right onto the shared driveway. The Cottages can be found immediately on the right hand side.
