A rare, chain-free detached bungalow occupying a very large plot in the heart of Ennerdale Bridge, within the Lake District National Park. The house offers four double bedrooms, a generous living room with countryside views, separate dining room and a sun room, all set around mature gardens that slope down to the River Ehen. Off-road parking and a detached garage add practical convenience.
The property is presented as a tidy exterior but requires internal modernisation in parts. The heating runs from an LPG boiler and the glazing dates from before 2002, so improvement works would raise efficiency. EPC rating D and Council Tax Band F reflect running costs that buyers should factor in.
Flooding risk on the plot is recorded as high; the rear garden extends to the river and includes a fenced 'secret garden' area. This riverside position is a major selling point for those seeking privacy and outdoor space, but it also brings ongoing maintenance and insurance considerations.
This home will suit families wanting space and good local primary schools, downsizers who want one-level living without sacrificing room sizes, or buyers seeking a renovation project in a unique National Park setting. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the plot, river access and renovation potential first-hand.
