A detached country residence with beautiful generous surrounding grounds. This spacious period property has grand proportions and is wonderfully positioned to take full advantage of the ever changing outlooks of the surrounding countryside, Lakeland fells and glorious Skiddaw. A sweeping driveway leads up to this 1920's arts and crafts style property, with outbuildings and a detached garage at the top of the driveway. The property is in need of upgrading throughout, with flexible accommodation, having three good sized reception rooms, kitchen with access into the cellar, utility leading back to the front hallway and WC. On the first floor are four double bedrooms, enjoying views of the surrounding garden and Skiddaw from the front two bedrooms, family bathroom and a shower room. Externally the grounds, although expansive, are laid out in separate areas, a relatively flat lawn to the rear, graveled area to the side, a beach hedge separates the lawn to a vegetable plot which extends to mature trees at the very rear.
The property sits within its own grounds on the edge of the village. Braithwaite enjoys excellent local facilities including restaurants, pubs, a cafe and village shop. The village has a Church of England primary school, a village hall and the surrounding fells form the famous 'Coledale Horseshoe' offering an excellent base for exploring some of the finest routes in the Lake District. It is a short drive or walk into Keswick town which provides a wider choice of amenities and an easy commute to a number of surrounding villages and towns including Cockermouth, Grasmere, Penrith and access to the M6
