Gale Rigg is a highly popular development which was originally constructed circa 1870 as a private home and later used as a school. In the early 1970’s Gale Rigg was developed into ten individual apartments with small but well tended gardens, in addition to a superb south facing communal lawn to the front. Each of the apartments have garaging and number 4 has an excellent position at the front of the building on the ground floor with it’s own private entrance.
Part of a splendid Lakeland property on a private road, in a gently elevated position above the most popular of Lakeland towns. The apartment has a wonderful aspect enjoying fantastic panoramic views over the town to the surrounding fells including Loughrigg, Fairfield and Coniston Old Man. Whilst it is in a peaceful gently elevated location it is still extremely convenient to enjoy all the facilities the village has to offer including an excellent variety of shops, restaurants, library, church, post office etc.
Gale Rigg is an attractive period property and the Management Company is very active and well run. Please note no commercial holiday letting is permitted.
