- Garage and ample parking; fast broadband and town-centre walking distance

Set on a larger-than-average plot within the Lake District National Park, this three-bedroom detached house delivers striking panoramic views to the Newlands valley and Skiddaw range. The property has been partly modernised with an updated kitchen and bathroom, and offers spacious, dual-aspect living spaces and a long garden that will appeal to families who value outdoor space and privacy.
Practical positives include a garage, fast broadband, and a short walk to Keswick town centre and outstanding local secondary schooling. The large plot previously had outline planning permission for a separate dwelling at the rear (reference 7/1991/2050), though that consent has now lapsed — the site still offers potential subject to new applications.
Buyers should note a medium flood risk for the area and an expensive council tax band (F). The garden and some exterior planting will need maintenance, and any major alterations will require planning consent within the National Park. Overall, the house combines immediate liveability with clear scope for improvement and enhancement.
