Description

Description Enjoying a superb setting in the pretty village of Chapel Stile, nestled in the stunning Langdale Valley, this attractive cottage style stone-built 2 bedroomed self contained ground floor apartment looks out over the adjoining field to the south and would make the perfect weekend bolt-hole, holiday let or easily managed permanent home. With a living room, breakfast kitchen, two bedrooms, shower room, large store or garden room (with potential) and lovely lawned gardens this unique home is a must for early viewing.

Quite apart from the superb array of fell and valley walks on offer, you can also stroll down the lane to the pub, or to the local café and very well stocked village store which will cater for all of your everyday needs - the location is simply perfect. Whether you are seeking an idyllic "lock up and leave" weekend retreat, a popular holiday let or even a permanent home sitting amongst some of the most beautiful scenery in the National Park, this charming home is not one to miss.

Full of character, this delightful apartment is entered from a lovely and sunny south facing lawned garden into a peaceful and welcoming living room, complete with a cosy open fire to supplement the night storage heaters. Beyond that is the breakfast kitchen with two bedrooms adjoining. A few steps lead up into the shower room with a three piece suite. There is a very useful store / garden room immediately outside, which has great potential to provide ancillary accommodation (subject to any necessary consents being obtained), a home office or simply a wonderful safe storage area for outdoor gear, bikes, canoes etc.

Whilst the property may now stand a little updating in places, it has a genuine charm and a welcoming feel which everyone will cherish. A rare opportunity, so don't miss out. 

Location Occupying an outstandingly peaceful location on the northern outskirts of Chapel Stile, just off the road leading to Great Langdale, 2 Greenmire Cottages is wonderfully placed. From the direction of Elterwater Common, proceed through Chapel Stile village, passing the pub and the village store take the westernmost (last) turning back into the village as if heading towards the church and the apartment can then be found on your right hand side with a few roadside car parking spaces nearby. The gate leads you through to the garden and the front door.
