4 bedroom house for sale in Thwaites Mill Cottage, Millom, Cumbria, LA18

Summary - Cooks Cottage, Thwaites LA18 5JZ

4 bed 1 bath House

Large period home with riverside garden and annex potential.
Detached stone cottage beside Black Beck with direct water access
Thwaites Mill Cottage is a stone-built former mill cottage on the edge of the Lake District National Park, sitting beside Black Beck with direct water access from the enclosed rear garden. The house retains period character across two reception rooms and four double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with dressing room and en-suite. A spacious garage and two-storey annex adjoin the property and offer scope to extend the principal accommodation subject to necessary consents.

The house is large (approximately 2,562 sq ft) and sits on a generous plot in a rural village setting with very low local crime and pleasant countryside outlooks. Practical positives include double glazing (unknown install date), dual-fuel heating (boiler and wood), garage parking and direct access to riverside walks and nearby coast and national-park amenities.

Important practical points: the property needs modernisation and likely improvements to insulation and services (walls are cavity with no installed insulation assumed). Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average, reflecting its remoter location. Council tax is above average and the local area demographics lean toward rural employment and retirees; some nearby schools are rated good, while the local primary requires improvement.

This property will suit a buyer seeking a characterful rural home with space and development potential — either a family wanting room and garden, or an investor/homeowner prepared to renovate and possibly incorporate the annex. Any plans to extend or change use of the annex will require planning and building-consent checks because of the location within the National Park.
