The living room has a sunny aspect with large picture window where the ever changing scenery can be watched from the comfort of the sofa, whatever the weather. The kitchen offers everything you require should you want to cook and has a picture mirror reflecting the outside view into the kitchen area.

Both bedrooms enjoy views of Wansfell and have wardrobes and bedside cabinets.
Halfway up a hill, it is still within easy walking distance of all the local shops, bars and restaurants that bustling Ambleside has to offer. The Waterhead Pier to catch a boat on Lake Windermere is less than a mile away, with local parks providing a place to gather or rest or as a starting point for countless walks close by to the lakeside. Not often do you find a property with such quality facilities, a large communal garden with a designated BBQ area, spectacular scenery and off road parking so close to the centre of the village.
