Rare find with plenty of potential to extend or rebuild! Lowland Fells offers a rare opportunity to extend or rebuild the home of your dreams on a large plot within the Lake District National Park, with spectacular views and easy access to all the amenities that the Lake District has to offer.
Centrally located in the pretty village of Blindcrake (near Cockermouth), the property approaches one acre of garden, including a seasonal stream and ample parking area, with stunning views towards Skiddaw at the front. The plot benefits from vehicular access at both the front and back, providing additional potential to split the site and add new-build affordable housing on part of the plot. See notes under “Agents Notes Re Planning” for additional information.
The bungalow itself includes an entrance hall, a lovely living room with box bay window, a modern kitchen/dining room, lean-to style conservatory, three double bedrooms and a modern fitted shower room. At the back is a standalone garage/workshop, and a decking area at the front that overlooks the lovely grounds and amazing views.
This is rare gem filled with possibilities.

Agents notes re Planning
The owners have explored the idea of demolishing the bungalow and building a "forever home" on the site, as well as sub-dividing the plot and building on the lower half of the site with Lake District Planners. Both concepts have received favourable pre-planning advice. The agent has letters on file about both concepts so contact us if interested in this element.
