Kates Cottage, Roger Ground, Ambleside, LA22 0QG

Kate’s Cottage is a double fronted traditional Lakeland cottage. It is well proportioned with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, good size windows and relatively high ceilings on the ground floor which allow plenty of natural light and provide a spacious yet cosy ambiance. Set in a gently elevated position with attractive views towards Esthwaite Water and Claife and the surrounding countryside whilst enjoying a generous sized lawned garden with vantage point. The property has the distinct advantage of a garage and private off road parking.

Although currently a main family residence the property could be used as a wonderful second home or would equally be suitable as an idyllic holiday letting property.

Ideally positioned on the edge of Hawkshead, a picturesque Lakeland village well-known for its literary connections to William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter. Approximately ½ mile south from the centre of Hawkshead Village which has a variety of amenities including shops, inns, restaurants, Church and a Primary School. A footpath close by allows direct access to the village and a plethora of country walks from the door step.
