The main door opens into inviting Hallway with under stair storage cupboard, 2 deep set rear windows, charming exposed beams and stairs to First Floor rooms. Bedroom 1 is a spacious Double Bedroom with twin deep set windows to the front, exposed beams and window seats. En-Suite WC and wash hand basin (it would not be a big job to add a shower to this arrangement and perhaps alter the door position to create a Ground Floor Shower Room rather than En-suite). Bedroom 2 is a similarly pleasing Double Bedroom, again with exposed beams and charming views (Black Combe in the distance) through the twin, deep set windows. Bedroom 3 is a good sized Single Bedroom enjoying a front aspect too. Window seat and exposed beams.

From the Entrance Hall, the stairs lead up to the First Floor Landing with the Bathroom off, which has a white suite comprising WC, bath and pedestal wash hand basin. The Lounge is a superb room of particularly generous proportions with feature central archway which creates some natural separation where a useful ‘Office Nook’ has been created. The room is sunny and bright with triple aspect and there is an attractive fireplace with tiled hearth and open fire. Wonderful country views to the side and front. The rear, half glazed stable door provides ‘bridge’ access (and delightful views) to the incredible Garden – more of this later! The Dining Kitchen is full depth and bathed in sunlight and enjoys further superb views. A half glazed stable door (matching the lounge) provides charming views (and ‘bridge’ access) to the Rear Garden. The Dining Kitchen provides ample space for a central dining table and is furnished with a range of ‘mid’ wood wall and base cabinets with stainless steel sink. Integrated fridge freezer, space and plumbing for washing machine, built in electric oven and 5 burner calor gas hob with brushed stainless steel extractor fan over.

Access to the Rear Garden from the house is via either the stable door from the Lounge or Dining Kitchen across the 2 charming ‘bridges’. These Gardens have to be seen to be believed. An absolute joy and credit to the dedicated owners with a profusion of colour all year round from the clever planting. There is a large expanse of lawn that looks almost too perfect to not be faux grass! A wonderful, central rockery and deep border all brimming with a mix of pretty, established and well tended plants and shrubs. To the side is a smaller, spring Garden. To the side there is a further lawn with central vegetable/fruit Garden with a variety of very productive plants including Raspberry, Blueberry, Strawberry, Rhubarb etc! In addition to all of this is a Greenhouse (may be available by separate neg), large timber Shed with adjoining Log Store and Single Garage with small Workshop Area. The Garage has power and light and houses the oil central heating boiler.

Location: The Hill is a charming Hamlet located between pretty Broughton in Furness and Millom. It sits just on the edge of the Lake District National Park so enjoys wonderful views to the surrounding countryside without the crowds! The delights and attractions of the Inner Lake District are within easy reach, particularly, this side the lesser known, stunning, Western Lakes. Scarr Close along with the wonderful views enjoys delightful, picturesque walks right from the door step!

For amenities the closest town of Millom provides Railways Station, Schools, Library, Post Office, Sports Hall, Supermarket etc and is just a 5 minute drive. The smaller, Lake District town of Broughton in Furness is just a little further at 15 minutes away.

To reach the property from Greenodd, follow the road in the direction of Broughton in Furness for approx 12 miles, going through Foxfield and dropping down the hill to Duddon Bridge. At the lights continue over the bridge and follow the road, take the left turn signposted The Green and Millom at the church. Continue through The Hill and Scarr Close is the first property on the left hand side just through the Hamlet.
