Beck Allans is believed to have been constructed in the 1850's as an impressive home for a Manchester business man who appreciated the beauty of this splendid location. In about 1970 the property was then converted to its present use with Bracken Fell itself, being a purpose built addition in 1994 constructed over a double garage.
Rather unique and with great development potential with a detached double garage and small utility room on the ground floor.
Bracken Fell is entered via its own private doorway and stairs which lead into the bright and attractive open plan living space which incorporates plenty of room in which to prepare meals in the fitted kitchen area, dine and then relax in comfort whilst enjoying some lovely views. There is a double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom beyond this, whilst outside is a private car parking space alongside the building.
Perfect as a lock-up and leave weekend retreat or indeed continued use as a holiday let, the double glazed apartment is offered as seen with furniture and fittings all included (excluding bedding). Onward holiday let bookings are available if desired or vacant possession can be offered.
Location Beck Allans is located in a delightful position at the centre of Grasmere Village and is yet tucked away from the main thoroughfares. From our office in Ambleside head north on the A591 to Grasmere passing Rydal Water and Grasmere Lake along the way. Upon reaching the roundabout take the first exit into the village. On entering the village follow the main road, passing the church and famous 'Grasmere Gingerbread' shop on the right hand side, and the entrance to Beck Allans is the next turning on the right after The Wordsworth Hotel. Once you have entered the drive, the allocated parking space can be found immediately to the right
