Description
Dale Cottage sits in the village of Braithwaite, just a little way up from the village shop. Being slightly elevated the property benefits from the views of the surrounding Lakeland fells. The village is a hive of activity as it has three pubs, two coffee shops, a primary school and is on the main route up to Whinlatter fell and the Whinlatter centre. There is a local bus service that takes you to Keswick or west to Cockermouth.
As you approach Dale Cottage, you are greeted with a low-level Lakeland stone wall that borders the front garden, this lovely area is filled with mature shrubs and plants in pots. With its typical cottage style, the property is double fronted with central porch and roses round the door. The front porch is a great place to discard muddy boots before entering a very spacious sitting room with a large chimney breast housing gas fire and ornate wooden surround with marble backing and hearth. The window looks to the front and over to Barrow fell. From the sitting room there is a door to the kitchen, which is completely retro in style and perfectly functionable. To the end of the kitchen is an opening that flows nicely in to the garden room that has a fabulous bay window looking in to the garden and beyond to The Kinn fell. There is a door out into the garden from this room and a further door that takes you to the inner hallway where the staircase to the first floor is located and also the cloakroom and dining room. The dinning room has been used as a downstairs bedroom by the current owner and has recently been fitted with a disability shower. This can easily be removed to create a dining room or snug. The hallway has an impressive wrap around staircase with velux window giving natural light. Making your way up the stairs to the first-floor landing there is wonderful storage from two good size cupboards. The master bedroom is a great size and has a bank of fitted wardrobes and faces the front of the property and views of Barrow Fell. Bedroom two is located at the back and again is a great size with fitted wardrobes and views of The Kinn. Bedroom three is a double bedroom with bedroom four being a good size single with wardrobe/cupboard built in. The bathroom offers bath with sink above and a window to the side.
To the outside and to the rear, the garden is beautifully stocked with an abundance of mature shrubs, plants and flowers. The centre of the garden is laid to lawn with stepping stones that take you to the top of the garden where you will find a pond with water feature, walking through the wooden arch takes you to the conservatory that faces the house and through a door from the conservatory you enter a great size workshop. The garden offers lovely views of the surrounding Lakeland fells and is a wonderful place to sit or entertain. The house has gas central heating and is fully double glazed.
