Characterful village cottage on a generous plot within the Lake District National Park.
Chain free three-bedroom detached cottage with scenic Lyth Valley views
Set within the Lake District National Park, this elevated three-bedroom detached cottage offers genuine character and far-reaching views over Lyth Valley. The home is chain free and sits on a deceptively large plot with off-street parking, a rustic landscaped patio and a pleasant garden — an appealing package for a family home or holiday let.
Internally the house feels cosy and traditional, with exposed beams, wooden doors and two reception rooms arranged over two storeys. There is scope to modernise and reconfigure to suit contemporary living; the property’s solid granite walls and double glazing (fitted post-2002) provide a good base, while the oil-fired boiler and radiators currently provide heating.
Buyers should note practical points: the property has only one bathroom, low ceilings in parts, and the granite walls are assumed to have no insulation. Oil heating and a pre-1900 build date mean some systems and fabric may require updating over time. Broadband is fast and the location benefits from low crime, outstanding nearby primary schooling and easy access to countryside amenities.
Overall, this is a characterful cottage in a very affluent, rural village setting offering immediate enjoyment and clear potential for sympathetic improvements. It suits buyers seeking a peaceful, scenic retreat or an income opportunity in a high-demand tourist area.
