Rooms

OVERVIEW
In the heart of the village’s historic square, 1 West is a traditional Georgian town house. Built in 1760s, this Grade II-listed property is full of character, elegance and charm. Retaining many original features, from its rare cast iron range to its beams, this house seamlessly combines its heritage with modern living.

ACCOMMODATION SUMMARY
The lounge diner, running front to back, is welcoming and generously proportioned. The kitchen is accessed through this space, towards the rear of the property, which then leads onto a back patio. The first floor comprises a large bathroom and generous double bedroom. On the second floor are another generous double bedroom and a single bedroom. Accessing the recently developed attic on the floor above, you’ll find a light, bright and tranquil space with large conservation rooflights. The ample cellars which run the length of the property offer plenty of storage space for bikes, canoes, wood and tools, as well as extra white goods. The flagstoned patio courtyard to the rear of the property is a perfect summer sun trap. The property also includes a divorced garden down a leafy (and pedestrian-only) lane leading from the rear patio, which is set in fields and offers distant views of the Lake District fells. Available with no onward chain, a viewing is highly recommended.
