31 BANK TERRACE,CONISTON,LA21 8HF
LA21 8HF
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Character two-bed with garden and parking near village amenities.
Elevated views over Coniston Water and Grizedale Forest
Set on a hillside row in the Lake District National Park, Damson Cottage is a traditional Lakeland slate cottage with elevated views across Coniston Water and Grizedale Forest. The sitting room retains original flagstone flooring and a slate-hearth gas stove, while the breakfast kitchen, utility/boot area and upstairs bathroom provide practical everyday living in a compact footprint.
The property offers genuine lifestyle appeal: front garden with mature shrubs and seating terraces, a secluded rear patio, and two off-street parking spaces — a rare find in the village. With scope to update kitchen and bathroom fittings to personal taste, the cottage suits a permanent home, second home or holiday let; a rental estimate is provided at about £850 pcm.
Notable practical points are clear and factual: the site is chain-free, freehold and outside flood risk, but a small area of Japanese knotweed has been recorded at the rear bank and a specialist management plan is ready to implement. Broadband/network notes are mixed — Openreach superfast service is available in the area, but recorded speeds in listings are slow, so check required speeds if remote working is essential.
This is an authentic, compact village cottage for buyers who prioritise character, views and location over large internal space. The layout is efficient for two-bed living; buyers should expect some cosmetic modernisation rather than a full renovation.
