Whether you are a keen walker and want to head for a hike in to the mountains or simply want to relax in the Lake District National Park, this house is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. The property would be Ideal as a home, second home or holiday letting opportunity.

Entering the cottage through the rear glazed porch taking you in to a useful utility room with plumbing for a washing machine, a fantastic space to kick off your muddy boots after a day out on the beautiful fells.To the left there is a modern cloakroom with WC, vanity unit and heated towel rail.

The well designed kitchen/diner has cream high gloss soft close wall and base units, integrated dishwasher, electric oven, induction hob with extractor hood over, stainless steel splash back and black inset sink with mixer tap complete with stunning Lakeland slate work tops; the perfect place to prepare dinner for friends and family alike!

With part tiled walls and Lakeland stone floor complete with underfloor heating, every detail has been considered to make this space comfortable yet functional.

As you walk in to the living room you are wowed by the views of the beautiful Lakeland fells providing a delightful backdrop to the green fields of the valley below. The welcoming room has a log burner which sits on a Lakeland stone hearth with a traditional Lakeland stone lintel, perfect for cosy evenings, the room also offers thoughtfully designed under stairs storage and alcove shelving. A glazed door leads you to a front porch with seats to either side, and an external door leads you out on to the south facing beautiful patio terrace where you can relax and soak up the incredible scenery which encompasses Halton Terrace.

The property has three comfortable bedrooms, bedroom one a double room with amazing views over the valley, bedroom three a single room with views to the rear fells including Glenridding Dodd.

The studio bedroom on the second floor is worth the wait, not only does it boast dual aspect Velux windows which flood the room with natural light, it offers space, under eaves storage and the real showstopper is the Skylight balcony from which you can step out and inhale the views of Ullswater which is the second largest and third deepest lake in England!
