Set on the edge of the Lake District National Park, this detached three-bedroom cottage blends traditional charm with recent upgrades. Exposed beams, deep-set windows and window seats create characterful living spaces; the large lounge with archway and open fire is bright and comfortable. The dining kitchen is a generous, practical family hub with integrated appliances and room for a dining table.
The gardens are a standout feature — expansive, immaculately tended and laid out for year-round colour, productive fruit and vegetable beds, greenhouse, large timber shed and a single garage with workshop area. Two stable-style half-glazed doors provide direct, attractive access to the rear garden from both lounge and kitchen. A new condensing oil boiler installed May 2024 gives improved heating efficiency.
Practical points to note: there is a single family bathroom on the first floor and an en-suite WC on the ground floor (shower not currently fitted), so you may want to add a ground-floor shower room for convenience. Drainage is via a shared septic tank; buyers should seek independent advice about current regulations and any required upgrades. Broadband is listed as superfast but recent checks show average speeds; mobile signal is excellent.
The property sits in a peaceful hamlet with very low crime and excellent access to countryside walks and the beach within ten minutes. Local schools and Millom’s amenities are a short drive away, making this an appealing home for families seeking rural life close to services. Council Tax is band E (above average) and the area is classed as relatively deprived, balanced by strong local appeal and tourism potential.
