OVERVIEW
Having an elevated position, deceptive external appearance and a generous plot, Fell Foot House offers buyers a wealth of possibility. The current layout is already excellent for family buyers with the accommodation over three levels - a lower ground floor has lots of storage perfect for outdoor gear and there is a study and utility room. The ground floor has access to the garden plus numerous reception spaces, ideal for bird watching, relaxing and social dining. A master bedroom suite is also on this level. To the first floor are further three bedrooms plus a shower room. Externally, the plot offers a generous amount of parking both at the front and rear and there is a good sized garage with workshop space. There are mature garden areas with lawn, rockery style beds and a former vegetable garden with polytunnel. Updating and modernisation is required, however, the scope to personalise, extend or redevelop (subject to planning) is fantastic, as the plot extends to approximately 0.85 acres and this is the ideal opportunity to create a forever home to your requirements. Close to Fell Foot Park with access to Lake Windermere, the wider National Park is easily reached and there is a good access to the M6 via the A590.
