An attractively proportioned property providing two bedroom accommodation with sitting room, kitchen/diner, bathroom, separate cloak room and store. Nestled in a superb picturesque rural setting with far reaching and attractive country views. Off road parking and woodland garden. Although the property does require modernisation it will suit a variety of buyers whether as a main home, retirement property, second home or holiday let as the previous vendor had.
Apart from the superb quiet location the property has the distinct advantage of a private drive to the front allowing private parking and access to the garden, natural woodland garden that enjoys spectacular views across the River Brathay towards Skelwith Fold and Black Fell.
Well placed in the centre of the Lake District National Park at Skelwith Bridge on the edge of the Langdale Valley and approximately 3 miles from the popular market town of Ambleside. In a delightful rural position with splendid views towards the River Rothay. Ideal location to enjoy a plethora of walks from the doorstep together with amenities close at hand including Skelwith Bridge Hotel and Restaurant and the reputable Chester's Café. For a larger variety of amenities Ambleside is only a short drive away.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
