Location Aubrey is located very close to the centre of Ambleside and can be approached from the south via Rothay Road leading along the one way system onto Compston Road. Turn left immediately before Zeffirellis cinema and second left into Millans Park. Aubrey can be found on the left hand side opposite the entrance to Millans Court.
Description This attractive stone built cottage sits in a short terrace of three, quietly situated in pleasant residential surroundings and yet only yards away from the thriving centre of Ambleside where a variety of shops, traditional Lakeland Inns and even a range of cinema screens await. It is always nice to know that you have everything on hand. It is even nicer when that "everything" includes a superb variety of stunning fell walks and the peaceful shores of lake Windermere all just a short stroll away.
Built over three stories some 150 years ago or so, this much loved terraced cottage would now stand some updating, but offers well balanced accommodation throughout, equally suited as a permanent home for a growing family as it is to holiday letting or for enjoyment as a weekend retreat.
There is space in which to work from home for those lucky enough to be able to do that and enjoy all of the benefits which go with living in arguably the most beautiful National Park we have, and whilst Aubrey would now stand some updating, there is also scope to improve and even re-design if desired. The present layout includes a hall, two reception rooms, a kitchen and an office or store on the ground floor which we believe may be timber built. There is a case for extending the kitchen into this area (subject to any necessary consents being obtained of course), whilst other might prefer to consider opening up the living space. The four double bedrooms each have wash basins within them and there is a bathroom on the first floor. Some of the bedrooms may be considered ample enough to accommodate an en-suite if desired.
The gardens are easily maintained and there is a residents car parking scheme in operation on Millans Park.
A superb opportunity, come and see for yourself.
