This traditional mid-terrace stone cottage sits on the edge of the Lake District National Park in the popular village of Penny Bridge. The house offers a cosy, characterful interior with exposed beams, a wood-burning stove in the lounge and a compact but well-equipped kitchen. Its three-storey layout includes two main bedrooms and an attic bedroom with skylight, making efficient use of limited space.
Outside, a sloping rear garden with hedged boundaries includes useful outbuildings and a wooden summerhouse/garden room that extend usable space and storage. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing in some places, excellent mobile signal and an affordable council tax band — practical advantages for a village location.
Notable considerations: the cottage was built before 1900 with granite walls that are assumed uninsulated, and some original single-glazed windows remain. Rooms are compact and the attic bedroom has reduced head height; buyers seeking larger living areas may find the layout limited. While presented well in photos, modest updating or targeted thermal improvements will improve comfort and efficiency.
This house will suit first-time buyers seeking a characterful starter home, or landlords looking for a village buy-to-let near the LDNP. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the charm, garden scope and flexible outbuildings."
