Set on an elevated plot on the edge of Ambleside, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers comfortable, single-floor living with far-reaching fell views. The sitting/dining room opens onto a front balcony ideal for morning sun, and a sunroom off the kitchen adds a bright informal living space. The main bedroom includes an en-suite; two further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the accommodation. Sold with no ongoing chain and offered freehold, the home is ready for immediate occupation.
Outside, mature, well-maintained gardens wrap the property with lawns, planted beds, rockery features and patios to front and rear — a peaceful, low-maintenance setting for outdoor sitting and easy planting. Under the house is a double garage with electric up-and-over door, plus a generous driveway providing parking for several cars.
Practical details to note: the EPC is rated D and the property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s, so buyers should expect period-era fittings and potential for modernisation. Broadband speeds are slow locally and council tax is described as expensive; those needing fast connectivity or lower running costs should factor potential upgrades into plans.
This bungalow will suit buyers seeking a tranquil Lake District home with easy access to fell walks and village amenities. It is especially appropriate for downsizers or those wanting a single-level main living area with generous outdoor space, while offering potential to update services and finishes to current standards.
