There is a private entrance to the property with a slate porch. There are a number of entry points to the house: the front door leading to the large living room/diner; a french door leading into the kitchen and another door from the back garden leading into the snug.
The living room /diner is a large, light, wooden panelled room painted in Farrow and Ball grey. It has a brand new wood burner, two large traditional sash windows and sliding oak doors to the kitchen. These can be opened if you want sociable cooking and dining with family and friends.
The flooring in the living room / diner is solid oak in a herringbone design and is a beautiful feature of the property. The large cranberry sofa and accompanying arm chairs are made by Laura Ashley, as are the solid wood and painted coffee table and dining furniture. There are three lighting zones , including spotlights and table lamps, all connected via wall switches so you can set the mood you require.
Leading off the Living room via a solid oak door is the hallway which has access to the snug and the downstairs cloakroom. The original staircase is made of traditional pitch pine and it has recently been restored to its former glory. There are two flights of stairs that lead to the bedrooms and family bathroom.
The kitchen is fitted with grey painted kitchen units, integral appliances and is finished off with a stunning solid oak work surface. There is a large window and french door looking out into the back garden.
The kitchen has a dishwasher, fridge freezer, integrated microwave, oven and nespresso coffee machine as well as an electric hob. The whole kitchen is brand new.
The snug is a great family room, having beautiful oak flooring and being decorated with Laura Ashley wallpaper, paint and curtains. There is a pretty daybed set up as a sofa, a large wall-mounted TV, occasional chair and large oak desk. It is the perfect place to work or a cosy den for the children.
A large window looks out into the back garden and there is also a french door.
There is a small library which includes children’s books and a basket of family games to keep the family entertained.
Upstairs there are three large bedrooms. All bedrooms have been fitted with solid oak herringbone flooring and have lovely views out onto the mountains or garden. The main bedroom has a king sized bed and newly fitted en-suite with shower. The two large sash windows look out onto the grounds and mountains. The second bedroom also has a king sized bed and has fabulous views of the garden and fells. The third room is a twin and overlooks the private garden. All bedrooms have been decorated with Laura Ashley wallpaper and Farrow and Ball paint.
There is a large family bathroom with a free-standing bath and walk-in shower. It has been tiled with grey slate tiles and has a lovely window seat looking out into the woods at the back of the house. These woods are private and belong to the property.
Outside there is a private back garden with a grassed area and a gate into the private woods. There is a separate sitting area in the garden as well. The wood is a good size, is enclosed and is a great place for children to explore and build dens!
On the property we also have a herd of pet goats and Herdwick sheep. These are pets and they do enjoy human company so guests are very welcome to stroke the animals and feed them. We also a pond for our ducks which is in a separate field so children should be supervised when visiting the chickens and the ducks.
