Description This 3 bedroomed Lakeland Cottage is simply perfect. With so many original features being retained the current owners have really brought the property into the 21st century with modern appliances and tasteful decoration throughout. This stunning cottage is ready for the next owners to move in and enjoy.
As you step through the front door it is quickly apparent why so many guests love visiting Graystones Cottage, greeted by a cosy, yet spacious living room with feature fireplace housing a log burner on a slate hearth, you immediately feel the warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The well-appointed kitchen, with original Lakeland slate flagged floor, is a cottage style fitted kitchen with a good range of stylish wall and base units and a granite gloss worktop. Featuring modern appliances of; Neff dishwasher, dual fuel double electric oven with 4 ring gas hob and Lamona microwave. Often the heart of a home, this kitchen offers ample space for a dining table and is ideal for entertaining, preparing delicious meals for family and guests or simply catching up with a friend over a cup of tea. From the kitchen is access to the ever so useful cellar area which currently offers fantastic storage but it has great potential for perhaps a games room or cinema room if so desired.
From the kitchen there is a really useful rear porch the ideal area for hanging up wet coats and taking off muddy boots after a day on the fells plus a utility are having plumbing for a washing machine, a vent for a dryer and access to the rear courtyard patio seating area.
Upstairs, on the first floor you will find a bright double bedroom with views to Wansfell and a modern bathroom comprising of a WC, large corner shower unit, freestanding roll top bath, washbasin, a heated towel rail and underfloor heating. A separate wet room can also be found on the first floor, offering top quality fittings comprising of a WC, wash hand basin, walk in waterfall shower and a heated towel rail.
On the second floor are two fabulous double bedrooms offering a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring with beautiful views towards the surrounding Fells.
To the rear of the property there is a Lakeland paved courtyard garden area perfect for unwinding at the end of a long day with a glass of something cool, peaceful and private you'd never believe you're only a stones throw form Ambleside's hustle and bustle. The 'old washroom', a Lakeland stone store, is also accessed from the rear garden and is the perfect area to store bikes and other outdoor equipment plus there is an additional store to the side. Pedestrian access from the garden to the rear lane takes you directly to the village centre and the array of cafes, shop, restaurants and bars the village has on offer.
