Set in the heart of Stainton and less than ten minutes from Pooley Bridge and Ullswater, Sunnyside is a traditional detached cottage offering flexible family accommodation across two storeys. The house has been thoughtfully extended to create generous living spaces: a vaulted living room with multifuel stove and mezzanine study, a kitchen-diner with Rayburn, three double bedrooms and three bathrooms. Landscaped, low-maintenance gardens and a sizeable driveway with an oversized garage/workshop complete the plot.
This property suits buyers seeking a comfortable family home in a sought-after village location close to the Lake District. Practical positives include private parking, an integral garage, fast broadband availability and separate ensuites to the two first-floor bedrooms. The plot sits well back from the road and benefits from mature boundaries and a terraced rear garden.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house is of traditional stone construction likely without modern cavity insulation, double glazing was fitted before 2002, and the main heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators. Council tax sits above average for the area. These factors mean there will be ongoing running costs and potential improvement work if you seek higher thermal performance or to replace older glazing and heating equipment.
Overall, Sunnyside offers character, space and an excellent village location for family life or a countryside base close to Ullswater. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the internal volumes, mezzanine study and the size of the garden and garage/workshop.
