Leighton Beck Road, Slack Head, Milnthorpe, Cumbria, LA7

OVERVIEW

Immaculately presented both inside and out, this four bedroom detached house really does have it all. The ground floor accommodation all flows from a central hallway giving the rooms a spacious feel whilst still being connected. The lounge has a multifuel stove plus there is a dining room with a touch of elegance and a study. The kitchen, utility room and ground floor WC all have a high end finish and there is a conservatory with view across the garden. The standard continues on the first floor with four good sized bedrooms, one of which is ensuite plus a stylish family bathroom. Outside, the property continues to impress both at the front and rear - the rear garden in particular has been meticulously planned by the owners, taking advantage of the natural rock outcrops to create numerous seating areas.

ACCOMMODATION

Approaching over the gravelled driveway, a stone porch provides shelter in which to shed wet coats before entering the house. Once inside, you are greeted by tasteful decor and a lovely limestone style tiled floor which runs seamlessly through into the WC and utility room. Light floods in from a window on the feature stairs and there is an understairs cupboard. The generous lounge has a lovely aspect across the front garden, painted wooden flooring and a multifuel stove set to a stone plinth. The adjoining conservatory is the perfect space to relax and enjoy a cup of tea and a good book - the view across the garden is perfect for watching wildlife.

The stairwell and landing add to the feeling of space with light streaming in from a window and rooflight. A double cupboard houses the boiler and hot water cylinder. All four bedrooms have an extensive range of fitted wardrobes and storage and lovely views over the garden towards trees. The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite fitted with a large walk in shower enclosure, a vanity hand basin and WC.

Outside, the property has a sense of privacy from neighbours. The level lawn at the front is elevated above the road and bounded by fencing and shrubs. The generous driveway has ample parking and turning and there are numerous fruit trees and well planted borders. A gate at the side leads into the rear garden. Embracing the topography of the plot, the current owners have used the limestone outcrop to their advantage. Alpine planting is interspersed with traditional herbaceous perennials and a large patio provides space for furniture. Stone steps lead up through the garden to the top level where a waterfall and small wildlife pond have been added - the ideal space to sit and appreciate the sounds of nature all around.

The attached garage is a real bonus. Additional storage is accessed in the roof space by a ladder and there is an up and over door and a pedestrian door. Power and light are connected and there is an outside tap and a rooflight.
