Modern kitchen and bathroom with underfloor heating in key rooms

Small, sloping rear garden—low maintenance but limited outdoor space
Set in one of the most enviable positions in the Lake District National Park, this three-bedroom Lakeland stone cottage pairs classic character with practical upgrades. The kitchen and bathroom benefit from modern fittings and underfloor heating, while the living room’s log burner and sash windows frame uninterrupted fell and valley views. A south-facing patio terrace and two allocated parking spaces are rare conveniences for a village location.
The unusual top-floor studio bedroom is the home’s showstopper: dual-aspect Velux windows, under-eaves storage and a skylight balcony give direct, dramatic views towards Ullswater. The cottage works well as a year-round residence, a second home or a holiday-let—positioned a short stroll from Glenridding village, local pubs and footpaths up to Helvellyn.
Buyers should note the building’s age and construction: original Lakeland stone walls are likely uninsulated and some areas show signs of requiring further updating. The plot is small and the rear garden slopes; outdoor space is low-maintenance but limited. Broadband provision is listed as superfast but reported speeds are slow, so check live performance if streaming or home-working is essential.
Chain-free freehold sale, low local crime and easy mobile coverage add practical appeal. If you want a character-filled cottage with superb views and immediate access to fells, this property offers a rare combination of location, parking and lettings potential, tempered by some fabric and insulation considerations.
