Property Ref: AM3474

The pretty entrance area is beautifully framed by climbing Clematis

which sets the tone for this small but appealing home of character.

Easily maintained the double glazed accommodation is largely open

plan with the primary L shaped room being well designed with clearly

defined sitting, sleeping and kitchen areas and there is a separate

shower room equipped with modern fittings.

The balcony style patio garden is a real delight, perfect for alfresco

dining or a glass of wine after a day on the fells or a long hard week at

work and offers a surprisingly high level of privacy and a pleasant

outlook across the roof tops to Loughrigg.

The Old Wash House would make a perfect lock up and leave weekend

retreat or holiday let and is highly recommended for viewing.
