Set within the Lake District National Park, this one-bedroom apartment at Kirkstone Foot offers easy lock-up-and-leave living with proven holiday-let income. The bright living/dining room opens onto a Juliette balcony with framed fell views, while a generous double bedroom and separate kitchen provide comfortable, practical space for guests or short-term residents. Private designated parking and shared, split-level gardens add convenience and curb appeal.
The apartment is sold furnished and with forward holiday bookings, simplifying an investor purchase or immediate second-home use. Mains gas central heating, double glazing and modern integrated kitchen appliances mean little immediate work is required to operate the property as a holiday let. The long lease (999 years from 2001, 974 years remaining) provides secure tenure and each owner is a shareholder in the management company that owns the freehold.
Notable considerations: the building is leasehold with an annual service charge of approximately £1,500 covering insurance, grounds and communal maintenance. The location is in a high flood-risk zone — buyers should obtain flood cover and check insurer terms before committing. Also, the apartment’s modest overall size (approximately 460 sq ft) suits couples or short-stay visitors rather than families seeking larger living areas.
Conveniently placed a short walk from Ambleside’s shops, restaurants and transport links, this apartment suits purchasers seeking a low-maintenance Lake District base or a ready-made holiday-let investment with immediate income potential. Full inventory and booking details can be provided prior to exchange for serious buyers.
