Description

Description "Flossie's Den", or Flat 3 Rohan House, is located in a prime position right in the centre of Ambleside, just a few steps from the bustling shops, restaurants and charming attractions that make up the village. This studio apartment is perfect if you enjoy visiting the Lakes often, and would like a more permanent place to stay whilst you're here, and has everything you would need to refuel and recharge after a day out on the fells.

The communal hallway can be accessed through the front entrance, on Compston Road, or through a rear entrance on Millans Park. The hallway has an enclosed porch, and then stairs to lead up to Flat 3 which is situated on the top floor of Rohan House.

The apartment has an entrance hall, with a clothing rail and convenient storage space just by the front door. The studio room is lovely and bright, thanks to the large sash window. The discreet kitchenette can be found in the built-in cupboard, with tiled walls and base units with cupboard space. There is an under-counter Daewoo fridge and an inset stainless steel sink, and would be perfect for making yourself a quick bite to eat!

The room has a charming feature wall with exposed stone, and space where a fireplace would have been in the past. The room currently accommodates a double sofa-bed, which is a great way to save space, and a corner unit for the television.

The tiled shower room is deceptively spacious, comprising a large corner shower cubicle with electric shower, built-in wash hand basin and vanity unit, WC and chrome heated towel rail.

On the ground floor, there is a large storage cupboard which belongs to Flat 3; an ideal place to store bikes, paddleboards or for stashing luggage if visiting for a weekend.

The parking space for Flat 3 is found at the back of the building, and will be a blessing during peak season in Ambleside!
