This move-in-ready home, was once 2 separate cottages but after becoming one dwelling and then being used as a successful B&B, it is ready for a new lease of life. Whether this becomes a family home or a short-term holiday let with 6 en-suite bedrooms, office space, utility, 3 terraces and off-street parking there is plenty of scope in this gem of a property.

Be captivated by the beautiful fell views, captured from both inside and out, that wrap the 19th Century home nestling it firmly into its peaceful picture-perfect village.
Parking will be effortless - pull up into one of the six spaces found at the front of this pretty Lakeland home.

A warm welcome awaits inside, as you step onto the traditional slate flooring of the porchway. Take a seat and doff your shoes before making your way into the hallway.

The ground floor of Haven Cottage is homely and inviting offering flexible living that allows you to adapt areas to suit your needs. To the left is the formal dining room, entertaining guests by candlelight next to the exposed Lakeland stone wall, below the characterful beams overhead. Beams continue into a cosy snug - a room set around a feature log burner, an ideal spot to settle down after choosing a good book from the built-in shelving. In the summer months open the French doors and step into your own peaceful outdoor haven.

Retrace your steps across the hallway into the country farmhouse kitchen, with chic cabinetry, set under a hardwood countertop providing heaps of storage and prep space, plenty of room for white goods, a large range cooker and room for a freestanding island, allowing for guests to perch and have a brew with the host. Two large pantries, one under the stairs and one in the corridor, make for the perfect zones to store dry goods and those spare appliances that you don't need daily.

Opposite the kitchen is the current linen room where you could create a utility of dreams suitable for a large family. Picture your washer and dryer next to floor-to-ceiling shelving and storage - a spot where children can throw their bags and sports kits, and you can hang clothes to dry on drizzly days.

Continue onto the plush grey carpet of the living room - cosy with a slate fireplace, exposed stonework and beamed ceilings yet flooded with light from the large aperture and opening into the relaxed breakfast nook. The rich grey flagstone flooring takes you through a set of French door onto the patio seamlessly linking back into the snug.

Although the home is versatile it is also filled with possibilities as the wall between the formal dining room and the living room could be removed to create a beautiful open-plan living space - the choice is yours.

Also, downstairs is a handy WC and study space.

Step back through the living room and ascend the stairs to the first of the bedrooms.
Parents can escape to their own piece of tranquillity. To the left is a cosy sitting room come office with built-in wardrobes down one wall this would also make a luxurious dressing room. Imagine getting ready with the glazed door open to the balconied deck, the Lake District breeze drifting in - quite a lovely spot.

To the right stands a large en-suite bedroom, a freestanding tub taking centre stage in the main bedroom next to the fireplace - cosy, elegant and restful. Note the built-in cupboard if you need more places to pop shoes and clothes.

Return to the main set of stairs, found in the entrance hallway that takes you up to 5 bedrooms, found over two floors.

Be wowed as you take the first room on the right into a bedroom you want to show off! Walking into the en-suite bathroom take your choice between the elegant walk-in shower or a relaxing soak in the stunning rolltop bathtub. Double sinks, WC, heated towel rail and space to put towels and toiletries complete the space. Beyond, stands a light and airy double bedroom with stunning fell views from the French doors. Lazy mornings can be spent relaxing on the balcony with a brew and a map, planning your next walking route.

Across the hall is a good-sized double with built-in storage, tranquil views towards Ambleside and a contemporary en-suite shower room with WC, floating sink and handy shelving. Ascend the stairs and find two further bedrooms that mirror this one.

The final bedroom on the top floor is a beautiful suite. We think the only problem at Haven Cottage will be choosing which stunning bedroom to have! Possibly on every teenager's vision board, the sun beaming through the dual aspect glazing onto the rolltop bathtub found in the bedroom. The bedroom then opens into its own seating area, imagine girly gatherings or a gaming station. It also benefits from a separate en-suite shower room in similar crisp styles as the others in the home.

Storage is in abundance at Haven Cottage as a second set of stairs takes you into a fully boarded loft where Christmas decks, suitcases and possessions can be hoarded.
Step Outside

Retreat to the outside spaces where you can take in the beautiful views over the fields towards Loughrigg Fell.

Simple and low maintenance, the grounds are an idyllic sanctuary for those wanting an easy life come rain or shine, and in all seasons. Set over 3 levels in the form of 2 wooden terraces and a large paved patio all to the side of the home - they extend the living space as well as provide quiet spaces for solitude and relaxation.

The paved terrace leads conveniently from the front of the home and the main living accommodation, creating a seamless flow from inside to out and allowing multiple access points from the parking. Hidden from view, enjoy a moment of peace come morning or night away from prying eyes. Not just a lovely retreat but also family-friendly where there is plenty of space to pop the washing out to dry and a shed, perfect for hiding away a bike or two.

The two upper wooden balcony terraces add a little luxury leading from bedroom 4 and the study. When you need a minute to yourself, after a trying day, simply step out onto the decking and breathe in the refreshing Lake District air, your worries will soon be forgotten with the sight of the striking views.

If you are looking for a project then look no further than the front drive. This capacious area, currently used for 6 cars, could easily become an extension of the garden - think manicured lawn, planting and plenty of floral hues.
