Fell Foot House is a substantial Lakeland stone home combining original character with versatile living space. The generous kitchen-diner, cosy lounge, snug and garden room create sociable ground-floor living, while four good bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs offer comfortable family accommodation. A compact, self-contained ground-floor unit with level access provides an instant holiday-let, guest suite or home-office option.
Set in High Nibthwaite on the south-eastern shore of Coniston Water, the property benefits from countryside and fell views and direct access to local woodlands and water features. Designated parking, a sunny lawn and patio complete the outside space. Its location inside the Lake District National Park will appeal to buyers seeking rural charm and outdoor lifestyle.
Buyers should note practical issues plainly: the property uses a mix of heating systems including an air-source heat pump and oil tank; shared private drainage is due to be replaced; there is a medium flood risk in the area; and a neighbouring small barn has a right of access while another neighbour retains a narrow right of way. Council tax is band F (expensive) and some maintenance and updating may be needed to suit modern tastes.
This home will suit families wanting space near Coniston Water, second-home buyers seeking a Lake District base, or investors looking for a holiday-let with an existing self-contained unit. It is a rare riverside/Lakeland opportunity in a hamlet where properties seldom come to market.
