Description Beautifully located in the heart of the English Lake District, this 2 bedroom barn conversion occupies a spectacular position with far reaching unspoilt views. Now in need of internal modernisation, improvement and possible extension this is a dream location on which to invest for the future.
This fine barn conversion was originally converted in the 1930's and has now been in the same family for over 60years. The Brow consists of 4 properties (the other three in the same ownership) with No 3 being semi detached being the end property and possessing fabulous views from this elevated location; these views look over open fields to the River Brathay and taking in a wide expanse of the Lakeland fells and mountains including Wansfell, Loughrigg, Ill Bell, Seat Sandal and Red Screes in the distance to mention a few. You can step out of the door and stroll down to Skelwith Bridge or over to the Drunken Duck (a highly regarded Lakeland Inn and restaurant for those not in the know) or up onto the fells of Loughrigg, the Langdales, or to the shores of Elterwater.
The location is therefore first class and the updating to the accommodation can be further enhanced by an extension on the gable wall , subject to permissions. The house is double glazed with electric storage heating.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on July 11, 2023
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on July 11, 2023
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
