Location From the centre of Ambleside head towards Windermere on the one way system of Lake Road (A591). Turn left just before the Climbing Wall Centre opposite and immediately left again onto Low Gale. Take the second driveway only a short distance along on the left through the stone gateway marked ‘Gale House’. Pass to the left of Gale House itself and immediately ahead of you are the Loughrigg View apartments. The parking for number 8 is located at the far end of the driveway.

Description With panoramic views over Ambleside to the magnificent fells beyond, this 2 double bedroomed apartment is superbly placed above the village (which a pedestrian shortcut makes immediately accessible). With private parking, lounge with a private balcony, kitchen, sun room and bathroom this is simply perfect.

You can stroll down into the village or hike the high fells from the doorstep, or simply sit with your feet up in either the lounge or on the balcony and just soak in that view.

The accommodation includes a bright sun room, a lovely place to sit and admire the views. The kitchen is part tiled and fitted with wall and base units with work surfaces and a stainless steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include a Siemans 4 ring induction hob with extractor over, a Stoves oven and grill, CDA microwave and a Hotpoint washer/dryer. The lounge/ diner is bright and airy with a wall mounted gas fire and sliding doors to the private balcony with glass balustrade, enjoying magnificent panoramic views. Your eyes are most readily drawn to nearby Loughrigg in the west, where Todd Crag is prominent. Look closer and you may see Black Crag and Coniston Old Man beyond, your gaze can drift from Latterbarrow in the south all the way right around to Nab Scar, Heron Pike, Great Rigg and Fairfield in the north. The bathroom is part tiled with Aqualisa shower over the panel bath, a wash basin, WC and heated ladder style towel rail/radiator. Also with access to the roof space. A short flight of steps lead to the first floor landing with a cloaks cupboard and two double bedrooms with fitted furniture including wardrobes and overhead cupboards. The perfect holiday let, but would equally serve as a private weekend retreat or permanent home.

Top Notch is currently a successful ‘holiday let’ through Heart of the Lakes. Details of historic letting figures are available on request.

The perfect opportunity? Come and see for yourself.
