A wonderful opportunity for those seeking a 2 bedroom property either as a permanent or second home (ideal with no outdoor space to maintain) in a peaceful, tranquil rural location. Meathop Grange was a former sanitarium/hospital and was converted in the early 1990's and there are now a cluster of 26 unique and charming dwellings. Each property was thoughtfully converted to create individual, inviting properties. No.19 has a quirky upside down layout over two floors and can be arranged to suit your needs.
The half glazed front door with side window opens in to the split level hallway with useful built in storage cupboards for cloaks etc. Steps lead down to bedroom 1 which is a spacious double bedroom with deep set twin windows to the front. Large walk-in storage cupboard. Door to en-suite bathroom comprising bath with shower over, WC and pedestal wash hand basin. Cupboard housing the gas central heating combi boiler.
From the hallway stairs lead up to the First Floor where there is a generous and light lounge/dining room with ample space for both living and dining furniture and twin windows to the front providing a peaceful, wooded aspect. Coved ceiling and double glazed doors to the kitchen. A well laid out 'square' room with twin windows providing rear aspect and furnished with older style wall and base cabinets with 1.5 bowl stainless steel sink unit, electric oven and ceramic hob. Space for fridge freezer, space and plumbing for washing machine and dishwasher. Bedroom 2 is a double room with a rear aspect. The bathroom has tiled walls and has a 3 piece suite comprising bath with shower over, WC and pedestal wash hand basin.
Outside, there is a designated parking place opposite and visitor parking is available. There are also beautiful communal gardens and Meathop Grange is set within about 10 acres of wooded gardens and grounds and is a haven for wildlife.
Location The Meathop Grange development is surrounded by local walks and a local Hotel is close-by offering a public restaurant and bar. Convenient for the A590, the market town of Kendal and the M6 motorway are approx 15 minutes away and Grange over Sands is approx 5 minutes away with amenities such as Railway Station, Medical Centre, Convenience Stores, Churches and Primary School etc. The delights of the inner Lake District are around 25 minutes by car, with the shores of Lake Windermere approx 10 minutes drive.
To reach the property proceed out of Grange over Sands in the direction of Lindale, take the right turn to Meathop after the Netherwood Hotel and follow the road for approximately 1 mile. The gateway to Meathop Grange can be found on the right hand side. Follow the driveway, around to the left and the parking space for No. 19 is on the left directly opposite the property.
