A grand four-bedroom cottage in Eskdale Green, boasting panoramic views of the Lake District, has hit the market with a guide price of £595,000.
The detached property, which dates back to 1850, was originally two small cottages for the local bobbin mill.
It has seen extensive renovations during the current owner's stint and now sits in a prime position in the village.
As a part of its restoration, the house has also seen re-plastering, new ceilings and flooring, and a new staircase, as well as other work.
The grounds house a garden, a number of outbuildings and room for up to three off-road vehicles.
Described as being ideal for nature-lovers, its location within the Lake District National Park provides easy access to countryside walks and local sandy beaches.
Managing director at David Britton Estates, David Britton said: "This beautiful cottage presents a rare opportunity to own the perfect Lakeland home and enjoy a dream lifestyle in a most desirable location.
"With a large private garden and views across the stunning Lake District, the property is in an enviable location with access to local amenities and attractions.
"Presented in immaculate condition with locally-sourced materials and features, the cottage also has three outbuildings which could be used for a variety of projects."
The village of Eskdale Green features a small primary school, a shop and Post Office, a church and two pubs.
Within walking distance of the property is the Irton Road station, the midway point of the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, also known for its nickname 'La’al Ratty'. Commute necessities aren't too far either, with transport links to the M6 and local towns a short distance away.
David added: "The wonderful south-facing garden is mature and very productive, with two apple trees, a plum tree and various soft fruit.
"The rhododendrons and azaleas thrive well along with many other mature shrubs.
"There are a number of seating areas including a raised area behind the outhouses with panoramic views.
"The slate used in the crazy paving patio and the chipping on the path are all local Honister slate."
