Location Hawkshead is a beautiful and popular conservation village at the heart of the Lake District National Park at the northern tip of Esthwaite Water roughly midway between Lake Windermere and Coniston Water and is surrounded by magnificent scenery.

Leave Ambleside village centre on the A593 signposted towards Coniston taking the left hand turn signposted for Hawkshead crossing the River Brathay on the B5286 at Clappersgate. Follow this road south for approximately 3 miles and the village of Hawkshead comes into view. Just as the road bears sharply left before the main body of the village, continue straight ahead onto the original main street (this involves turning right, off the main thoroughfare). Mere Lodge is then found on the right hand side with parking in the public car park in the village centre. Main Street is no longer the main thoroughfare through the village.

Description Enjoying a peaceful location, within the charming village of Hawkshead, this delightful 3 bedroomed/3 bathroomed semi detached cottage makes a dream home. This welcoming cottage has lost none of it’s charm having been lovingly improved and enjoyed over the years.

The hallway leads to a bright open plan living area with plenty of space in which to relax or to dine. The kitchen area is newly fitted with sleek and stylish wall and base units with complimentary work surfaces incorporating a stainless steel sink and drainer. Integrated Indesit appliances include a ceramic 4 ring hob set above an oven with extractor hood over. Additionally there is an undercounter Beko fridge, and Kenwood dishwasher. The separate utility room is fitted with units and has plumbing for an automatic washing machine. Also on the ground floor are two double bedrooms with their modern ensuite shower rooms situated at either end of this floor, with the benefit of a further entrance hall. The third double bedroom is located in the converted roof space with views to the village and has integrated wardrobe. The ensuite bathroom has tiled walls and floor with a panel bath with shower tap attachment, wash hand basin and WC.

Simply perfect whether you are starting out with your first home or looking to down-size into something easily manageable with all which Hawkshead has to offer being accessible virtually on the doorstep. Whilst the property must be occupied by someone with a local connection (see below) this does not prohibit investors from further afield acquiring the property and long term letting to those who meet the planning criteria.
