3 bed semi-detached house for sale

3 Raven Lane, Applethwaite, Keswick CA12

Brief Résumé

Fantastic opportunity to purchase a three bedroom semi detached house in Applethwaite. The property benefits from splendid panoramic views of the local Lakeland fells, Gardens and outhouses. Local Occupancy Clause applies.

Description

3 Raven Lane sits perfectly positioned in the village of Applethwaite with Skiddaw prominent in the background and looking out to Catbells, Maiden Moor, High Spy, Causey, Grisdale, and the Helvellyn range, just to name a few. Applethwaite is an extremely desirable village that lies to the Northwest of Keswick and is approximately 1-1.5 miles in the car or a 30-minute walk into the town where there is an array of shops, restaurants, cafes and bars.

As you approach the property, parking is to the front by the mature hedge that borders the front of the property. A gate takes you up a path, with gardens laid to lawn on each side to arrive at the front door. The entrance hall gives access to the first floor and to your left is the sitting room, the views from here dominate the room. Double part glazed doors enter the dining room with open fire and rear garden aspect. To the end of the entrance hall is the kitchen, small but usable with access outside to three outhouses, a great opportunity to enlarge the kitchen (subject to planning rules). The staircase leads to the first floor where the master bedroom has the same wonderful outlook as the sitting room where the views are spectacular. Bedroom two is a double room with window to the rear and garden. Bedroom three is a single, again with superb views and a large cupboard over the stairs. To complete the house is the bathroom with bath and shower above.

To the outside, the front garden is stocked with mature shrubs and plants to the borders and laid to lawn on either side of the path. Access to the side takes you to the rear garden, with a large shed, laid to lawn with a raised terrace seating area and green house. The three outhouses are located just outside the back door of the kitchen and currently comprise of storage, WC and boiler room. The property is in need of some modernisation but certainly not one to be missed.
