Two double bedrooms in a compact, characterful layout
Open-plan living kitchen with exposed stone and beams
Enclosed rear courtyard for private outdoor use
Residents’ permit parking; no private front driveway

Set within the Lake District National Park, this traditional mid-terraced cottage offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase for a first-time buyer or second-home seeker. The open-plan living kitchen and exposed stone features give immediate character, while the enclosed rear courtyard provides a private outdoor space in a very central Windermere location.
The accommodation comprises two first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main bedroom at the front comfortably fits a double bed; the second bedroom suits guest use or a home office. Practical additions include a utility area and built-in boiler cupboard. Residents’ permit parking and excellent local amenities are a short walk away.
The property will benefit from internal modernisation and some energy upgrades: walls are traditional stone with no assumed insulation and fittings are dated. Buyers should expect renovation work to bring the house up to contemporary standards, which also presents scope to add value. There is no known flood risk and the tenure is freehold.
This is a clear renovation project in a highly desirable tourist and residential town. It will suit buyers who want a characterful home to personalise, a low-maintenance pied-à-terre near the lakes, or a holiday-let conversion, provided necessary updates are completed.
