Description

Situated a short stroll from the heart of Ambleside, this distinctive detached residence offers exceptional adaptability for potential investors or homeowners. Currently configured as two holiday apartments, this property encompasses over 1450 sq ft of living space, complete with generous private parking and a detached double garage. A unique opportunity exists to maintain both units as profitable holiday lets, combine them into a single residential apartment, or revert back to an expansive four-bedroom family home with minimal modifications. The property boasts beautiful views of the Lakeland Fells and easy access to local amenities. Internally, the property is well-presented across two floors. The ground floor features an inviting lounge area and a fully equipped kitchen adjoining a one-bedroom apartment with ensuite facilities. An independent entrance leads to another holiday let that includes a spacious lounge/bedroom with French doors onto a balcony, an additional bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen area. Removal of one kitchen could smoothly transform this into a comfortable four-bedroom home. The loft area has been partially converted for storage or workspace use due to its electric supply, making it ideal for crafting or working from home. All windows throughout capture stunning views of the surrounding fells. The exterior provides ample parking and low-maintenance gardens bordered by established greenery—a rarity for properties in this locale. This level of flexibility presents multiple avenues for generating income or indulging personal living preferences in the scenic North West.
