Set in a peaceful rural location just a short distance from Dalton-in-Furness, this beautifully presented detached cottage perfectly combines traditional charm with modern family living. Offering generous parking, a detached garage with additional storage and wraparound gardens, the property provides an exceptional opportunity to enjoy space, privacy, and countryside tranquility.

French doors open onto a sun terrace, perfect for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying far-reaching countryside views. A second reception room on this level offers flexibility as either an additional lounge or bedroom.

At the heart of the home is a stylish family kitchen, also positioned on the upper floor. Fitted with classic shaker-style units and solid wood worktops, it comes fully equipped with integrated appliances including a dishwasher, microwave, and a Russell Hobbs double fan oven with electric hob and extractor. A freestanding Haier double fridge freezer is also included. The central island breakfast bar creates a sociable focal point for everyday living and casual dining, while a separate ground floor utility room keeps practical tasks discreetly out of sight.

On the ground floor, a cosy sitting room with a log burner provides a warm and inviting retreat. An additional reception room, currently used as a living space with patio access, offers excellent flexibility as an addition bedroom if required.

The ground floor also hosts four additional well-presented bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom is truly stunning, beautifully decorated and benefits from a private en suite featuring a double shower. The remaining bedrooms are ideal for children, guests, or home working, with most enjoying access to adjoining shower facilities. The family three piece bathroom is also located in this area which offers neutral decor and Velux style window.

The adaptable layout allows for up to four reception rooms and four to five bedrooms, making the property suited to growing families, multi-generational living, or those seeking flexible work-from-home arrangements.

Externally, the property truly shines. The wraparound garden offers generous space for outdoor entertaining, children’s play, or even cultivating a vegetable garden. Patio areas provide ideal spots to relax and take in the surrounding countryside. A detached garage and driveway for several vehicles further enhance the home’s practicality.
