A well-presented, first-floor one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Keswick, converted from Chaucer House in 2005. The apartment benefits from elevated Lakeland fell views, open-plan living, and private off-street parking at the rear — features that have supported its track record as a successful holiday let.
Set within a period stone building with lift access and managed communal grounds, this property offers low-hassle ownership for an investor or buyer seeking a holiday base. The layout and presentation are contemporary while retaining characterful external stonework and tall sash-style windows that provide good natural light.
Practical considerations: the flat is leasehold and council tax is assessed for business rates (reflecting its holiday-let use). EPC rating C indicates average energy performance for the property; external granite walls are typical of the building and likely have limited insulation. Buyers should factor potential future costs for energy upgrades or insulating works if desired.
Overall, this apartment suits someone seeking a turn-key holiday-let investment or a compact Lake District base with reliable rental history, lift access, allocated parking and convenient town-centre location close to walks and local amenities.
