Bassenthwaite, Keswick, CA12

Rivendell is a deceptively spacious and unusually light and airy cottage, occupying a delightful position in the heart of the popular village of Bassenthwaite. Currently utilised as a successful holiday let, the property combines the comforts of modern living with an abundance of traditional character, including exposed original wooden beams throughout.

The well-presented accommodation comprises a generous sitting room featuring a wood-burning stove and exposed beams, together with a kitchen and dining area and a useful utility room to the rear. To the first floor are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, served by both a family bathroom and a separate shower room.

A particular feature of Rivendell is the attractive, enclosed walled garden situated separately, to the side of the property, overlooking the village green. Well stocked with mature shrubs and an apple tree, the garden includes a pathway leading to an elevated, sunny patio and charming summer house, creating a wonderfully private and peaceful space in which to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

Set amidst the stunning countryside of the Lake District National Park, Rivendell offers the rare combination of village living, traditional charm and excellent accessibility. Despite its tranquil setting, the property is within a short drive of a range of local amenities and the many attractions of the surrounding area.
