We are delighted to offer for sale this beautiful mews style cottage within the Silverdale and Arnside AONB, and on the doorstep of Gait Barrows Nature Reserve.
The property would make an ideal ‘lock up and leave’ holiday home, or holiday rental offering the perfect retreat and set in a stunning location. There is something for everyone, with access to local Nature Reserves, RSPB Leighton Moss, the coast only a couple of miles away and many walks straight out of the door. The perfect place to get away from it all! The major tourist destinations of the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales are within easy reach by car. Public transport is also available with trains from Silverdale and Arnside providing access to Lancaster, Morecambe, Grange over Sands and the Cumbrian west coast.
The well maintained accommodation is perfect for two, but will accommodate a sofa-bed for up to two additional visitors. The spacious open living area has French doors opening out onto a patio area in the private courtyard. The kitchen is fitted with a ceramic hob, washer/dryer, fridge/freezer, extractor fan and a multi function oven.
To the first floor is the double bedroom with dormer window overlooking Gait Barrows and Hawes Water Lake, ample storage in the under eaves area, and a shower room with extractor fan.
The property is all electric, with heating provided by night storage heaters, hot water controlled by an electronic timer. Smart meters operate on a dual tariff giving cheaper electricity overnight. Broadband currently serviced by Openreach but Ultrafast broadband available via B4RN. Drainage is to a shared septic tank.
Externally there is a courtyard to the front of the property with parking. Just through the courtyard is Gait Barrows Nature Reserve with its stunning views over Hawes Water Lake.
Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the accommodation on offer and its location
