Successful holiday-let income history
Ground-floor one-bedroom apartment, private front door
Compact size — approx 302 sq ft, best for single/couple
Leasehold with long lease remaining (735 years)
EPC D; traditional granite walls likely uninsulated
Main heating: boiler fed by bulk wood pellets
Very slow broadband and average mobile signal
No flood risk; very low local crime
Set in the centre of picturesque Broughton-in-Furness, this ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offers compact, ready-to-live accommodation in a stone-built building within the Lake District National Park. The open-plan living/kitchen is bright with two windows and fits a sofa plus a small dining table; the double bedroom and bathroom are in good order. The property has a proven short-term holiday-let record, making it suitable for buyers seeking a holiday home or a modest investment.
Practical details: the flat is leasehold (long lease — 735 years remaining), EPC rated D and heated by a boiler with bulk wood pellet fuel feeding radiators. The building is traditional granite stone and is assumed to have no cavity insulation in the walls, which may affect heating costs. Broadband speeds in the hamlet are very slow and mobile signal is only average — factors to consider if you need reliable connectivity.
At about 302 sq ft, the apartment is small and best suited to a single occupant or couple, first-time buyers, or those wanting a low-maintenance holiday base. There is no flood risk and local crime levels are very low; the village setting provides immediate access to local amenities, nearby walks, stream and woodland, and schools with mostly good ratings.
This is a straightforward purchase for someone wanting immediate occupation or to continue a holiday-let operation. Be aware of the modest internal space, the EPC rating and potential for wall insulation work if you want to improve energy efficiency and running costs.
