Chain-free bungalow with large garden, long garage and Helvellyn views—needs modernisation..
Chain free detached three-bedroom bungalow
Set in the heart of the Lake District National Park, this detached three-bedroom bungalow overlooks the fells with distant views of Helvellyn. The single-storey layout, long double garage and generous gardens make it a practical home for families, downsizers or those seeking a calm country base. The property is offered chain free, giving scope for a quick move.
Internally the layout is traditional and well-proportioned: a large living room, sunroom, kitchen/breakfast room, three bedrooms (one with en-suite) and a four-piece family shower room. The garage includes storage, an external WC and a utility area. The plot is large and attracts plenty of natural light, with a small patio and broad lawn areas for outdoor living and gardening.
The bungalow requires modernisation throughout — it offers a clear renovation project rather than a turnkey finish. Heating is electric and the interior finishes are dated in places, so expect renovation costs if you want contemporary standards and improved energy performance. There is an outline planning application pending for five bungalows on the land opposite (reference 7/2024/3107), which may affect views and future privacy depending on the outcome.
For buyers seeking a project in an outstanding location, this home delivers genuine potential: generous plot, useful garage and driveway, and classic Lake District setting. Its chain-free status and accessible village location make it straightforward to prepare and personalise to your own requirements.
