The modern touches of tiled splash back and laminate flooring finish the area off perfectly, this immaculate kitchen has everything one could need to cook up a delicious meal.

There are two generously sized double bedrooms, bedroom one being dual aspect and enjoying the most wonderful views towards The Old Man and Grizedale Forest - the perfect scene for those morning coffees. Bedroom two, which also has stunning views, so there's a treat for the eyes for all guests.

The superb bathroom is spacious and modern with a freestanding roll top, claw foot bath, enclosed corner shower, WC and pedestal wash hand basin. There is also a heated towel rail and an illuminated mirror. The perfect, relaxing bathroom to take a soak after a long day on the high fells.

From the hallway there is a box room with skylight which is an ideal storage room but could perhaps be utilised as a small home office or bike store.

Outside there is a bin store for both properties and the current owners have a private arrangement with a neighbour for a car parking provision at £100 per month.

The property benefits from gas-fired central heating and double glazing, making it comfortable and economical to run whether used as a permanent residence, a weekend retreat, or a holiday let.
