Description

Are you looking for the perfect weekend retreat, bolt-hole or an easily managed holiday let? The Buttery might just be the answer to your dreams. Converted from a former barn (or most probably the buttery for the nearby farmhouse) this sweet little cottage has been tastefully created in the most delightful of settings and includes an open plan bedsitting room complete with a kitchen area supplemented by a large modern shower room.

Enjoying a very pleasant outlook this bungalow style cottage includes a large covered porch which creates a sheltered entrance to the property, and is shared with The Barn.

The cosy welcoming dual aspect living area room enjoys exposed beams and a pleasant aspect and includes;

The kitchen which is neatly equipped with a range of attractive wall and base units topped with complementary work surfaces and includes an inset sink unit, Diplomat ceramic hob set over a Diplomat electric oven with Bosch extractor hood over. Beyond is the bedroom and sitting room with its contemporary electric fire set upon a slate hearth with exposed stone fireplace surround, perfect for cosy nights in.

The modern bathroom has tiled walls and characterful exposed timbers, with a three piece suite comprising a Mira shower within a large glazed unit, a wash hand basin set within a vanity style unit, and a WC. Benefitting form a heated ladder style towel rail/radiator. There is also a useful integrated storage cupboard.

Outside there is an easily managed patio style garden to the front and private car parking. sweet little gravel patio area to the front of The Buttery provides space to sit with a morning coffee whilst enjoying the surrounding views, and perhaps contemplating where to venture that day.

A parking space is situated to the front of the property.

A successful holiday let and perfect as a weekend retreat, The Buttery is not one to miss.

Location You can step from the door and within minutes be at the lapping shore of beautiful Coniston Water, whilst an admittedly more strenuous hike can take you into the very heart of the dramatic Coniston mountain range to the west - all without having to move the car from its berth in the car parking space provided. Nearby Coniston village and Torver provide for all of your daily needs, refreshment and entertainment if having the beautiful National Park on your doorstep alone is not enough.
