A genuinely sweet stone-built Lakeland cottage tucked into a tiny hamlet in Grizedale Forest, offered as a freehold two-bedroom end terrace. The cottage has an open-plan sitting/dining room with an open fire, a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, and two first-floor bedrooms with exposed timbers and built-in wardrobes. Outside there is a flagged patio, a small divorced garden, a Lakeland stone store and a log store. Ultrafast broadband is available and oil central heating provides year-round comfort.
This property is well suited to buyers seeking a holiday let, weekend retreat or easily managed permanent home. Its location between Windermere and Coniston makes it appealing to short‑stay visitors, and the compact layout is straightforward to maintain. The cottage benefits from character features—stone construction, exposed beams and a traditional feel—that are attractive to visitors and homebuyers alike.
Buyers should note material practicalities: the property lies in a high flood-risk area and drains to a shared treatment plant (shared between 1 and 2 Beck Cottages and Beck Cottage); buyers may need to seek independent advice about updated septic/private drainage regulations. Mobile signal is limited and the plot is small, which may affect some uses. Council Tax Band C applies and heating is oil-fired, which is a running-cost consideration.
Overall this is an appealing, characterful cottage with clear holiday-let potential and easy day-to-day use for a couple or small family, provided purchasers are comfortable with the flood risk, private drainage arrangements and rural utilities.
