5 Bongate is a charming, Grade II listed, three bedroomed cottage located in the market town of Appleby. This property is packed full of character and has been renovated to high a standard. Internally the accommodation comprises entrance hallway, living room, dining room, kitchen, utility room and ground floor WC. To the first floor are two double bedrooms, one single bedroom and a family bathroom.

The A66 by-passes the town and gives good access to the north and also to the A1 at Scotch Corner. The town is served by a variety of small supermarkets, general shops, schools, numerous sports clubs and a railway station on the scenic Settle to Carlisle line.

Mains electricity, gas, water & drainage; gas central heating; partial double glazing installed - primarily single glazing to the front and double glazing to the side and rear aspects; telephone & broadband connections installed subject to BT regulations. Please note: The mention of any appliances/services within these particulars does not imply that they are in full and efficient working order.

From Penrith, take the A66 to Appleby, exit onto the slip road and at the junction turn left. Follow the road under the railway bridge and continue along the Sands (past the Co-Op). As you ascend up the hill, the property can be found on the left hand side - just along from Bongate House.
