This contemporary cottage is perfectly located in the heart of the bustling market town of Cockermouth, on the edge of the Lake District National Park. Take a trip to the childhood home of famous poet William Wordsworth and explore the beautiful gardens which offer a peaceful retreat from the busy town centre. Cockermouth also boasts an array of local shops, art galleries, cafes, pubs, and restaurants. Pack your hiking boots and explore the lakes of Bassenthwaite, Buttermere, Crummock and Loweswater, all within an 11-mile radius. Wildlife enthusiasts will enjoy a trip to Lake District Wildlife Park (7 miles) whilst thrill seekers will love Whinlatter Forest (7 miles) where you can Go Ape or hire bikes to explore the forest trails. The popular market town of Keswick is only 14 miles where you can hire a boat or take a cruise on Derwentwater to enjoy the stunning scenery of the fells.

Upon entering through the front door, you step into a welcoming entrance hall. To your left is the snug, where a crackling wood burner nestled within an elegant fireplace creates a cosy ambience. Adjacent to the lounge is the well-equipped kitchen/diner, a space designed for culinary delights and shared meals. The kitchen features contemporary appliances, ample storage, and a dining area with a large table and chairs, perfect for gatherings with family and friends. Descending a set of steep cottage stairs from the ground floor, you find yourself in the TV room, a haven for entertainment enthusiasts. The room is dominated by a 65" Smart TV, offering a cinematic experience for movie nights or binge-watching sessions. Plush sofas provide comfortable seating for enjoying your favourite shows or films. Ascending to the first floor via set of steep cottage stairs, you reach the main lounge with Smart TV, another inviting space for relaxation. Also on this floor is a king-size bedroom, exuding comfort and style. The bathroom on this floor is a luxurious haven, featuring a classic roll-top bath and a separate shower cubicle. Continuing upstairs to the second floor, you find two more king-size bedrooms, each boasting charming sloping ceilings that add character to the space. There's also a shower room on this floor, providing convenience for guests.

Outside, the townhouse offers an enclosed courtyard garden, providing a tranquil outdoor retreat. The courtyard is adorned with stylish outdoor furniture, creating an ideal space for al fresco dining, relaxation, or enjoying a morning coffee.
