Drovers Mount, Little Salkeld, Penrith, CA10

An exciting opportunity to acquire a beautiful, two bedroom detached bungalow, nestled on the edge of the delightful village of Little Salkeld.

The spacious accommodation and well thought out layout of the property, complement the exacting standards evident both internally and externally.  The accommodation comprises central hallway with cupboard and loft access, dual aspect living room, stunning kitchen/diner which leads into a vaulted sun room, a family bathroom and two good-sized bedrooms, one of which enjoys en suite facilities.
