Ben Place Cottage sits in a quiet and secluded corner of Grasmere, which is one of the most popular and picturesque villages, right at the heart of the Lake District National Park. This two bedroom cottage has its own gravelled garden, including private parking for two to three vehicles, and enjoys fell views across to Helm Crag and Stone Arthur. The cottage is an easy 10 minutes walk from Grasmere village, giving ready access to the shops, galleries, cafes and restaurants, yet also giving it seclusion from the hustle and bustle of one of Lakeland’s prime tourist destinations.

The upper ground floor comprises an inviting sitting dining room, which has a log burner that heats up the entire upper floor. A well equipped kitchen with granite worktops, Belfast sink, electric oven and hob, fridge and dishwasher can also be found on the upper floor.

Heading down to the lower ground floor there are two double bedrooms with one having the added bonus of a dressing area and an ensuite bathroom. From the ensuite bathroom there is access to the utility room, which has plumbing for a washer and space for a freezer and also houses the gas boiler. The other bedroom is serviced by a separate family bathroom.

Outside, a gravelled garden wraps around the front and side of the property offering a sense of privacy and seclusion with ample space for garden furniture and potted plants. Additionally, there is driveway parking for two to three vehicles, which is quite unusual within Grasmere. This outdoor space complements the interior of the property, offering a seamless transition from indoor to outdoor living.

Ben Place Cottage was formerly part of a larger property that was divided some years ago and has been sympathetically restored with great care, consideration and attention to detail ensuring a quality home with modern day comforts including gas central heating and double glazing. Currently operating as a successful holiday let, with in excess of 40 weeks booked per year, of which around 50% are repeat bookings. Have estimated that the property could generate an income of approximately £29,000- £32,000 per annum- further details are available from the office. The cottage is being offered for sale with no upper chain and can be sold as an ongoing concern with the contents being available by separate negotiation.
