Description The spacious accommodation is entered via a welcoming entrance hall with ample space for wet coats and muddy boots, with direct access to the first of the three reception rooms. Perfect as a hobby room given the useful shelving unit plus an integrated storage cupboard, this would be equally suited as a home office for those lucky enough to work from home. The inner hallway leads to the rest of the ground floor accommodation, a generous under stair cupboard ideal for storing larger family items, and the downstairs cloakroom. The lounge has a square bay window from where views of The Old Man of Coniston can be appreciated, whilst an open fire with slate hearth and surround makes this an ideal room for relaxing in with friends and family on those cooler evenings. The dual aspect kitchen is part tiled and has wall and base units with complementary work surfaces incorporating a stainless steel and drainer. There is a Rangemaster extractor hood, and a built in pantry cupboard. Beyond the kitchen is a separate utility room, again with wall and base units, and complementary work surface incorporating a stainless steel sink and drainer. An external door leads to the rear porch.The dining room also enjoys views of the Yewdale Fells, and Coniston Old Man and has glazed patio doors in the bay window opening to the garden.

On the first floor are four good sized bedrooms with lovely views (two of which are dual aspect).The family bathroom, which could now stand some updating, is part tiled with a panel bath with Mira shower over and a wash hand basin. The separate WC - ideal for busy families - is just next door and has a wash hand basin.

Outside there is private car parking provision on the driveway and a detached garage. The rear garden is a delight with panoramic views to Yewdale Fells and Coniston Old Man, hidden paths, lawned area, pond and established rockery. Ample options for sitting and enjoying that morning coffee, or glass of something chilled at the end of the day.

You can stroll from the doorstep down to the lake shore or hike the many high fells which form the backdrop to the village which is itself very well served by a variety of traditional inns serving locally brewed ale, shops, cafes and schools.

A stand-out retirement or family home in an exceptional location - come and see for yourself.

The property is subject to a local occupancy condition which can be obtained from our Ambleside office.
Whilst the property must be occupied by someone with a local connection (see below) this does not prohibit investors from further afield acquiring the property and long term letting to those who meet the planning criteria.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    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

    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
