Description
A deceptively spacious, two bedroom detached cottage style bungalow constructed using traditional Lakeland stone. Generously proportioned accommodation with two large reception rooms including the principle sitting room with feature vaulted ceiling with exposed beams.
Originally built as a quarry building and subsequently converted, apparently as a result of intervention by Beatrix Potter. Extended over the years creating a lovely cottage in an idyllic position with an abundance of wildlife and with virtually no light pollution allowing amazing skies.
The property is a well established holiday letting property generating a gross income circa £19,000 per annum and is being sold with all forward bookings and the majority of contents.
Nestled in a rural position offering peace and tranquillity with superb country views. Ideal for those wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Endless fell and country walks and bike rides from the doorstep to enjoy. Close to Tilberthwaite, The Langdale Valley and Coniston Old Man all that are easily accessible. Amenities are close with numerous shops, cafes, public house all available at nearby Coniston, Ambleside and Chapel Stile. Chester’s cafe is also walk able.
