Description One of the oldest detached houses in Coniston, formerly 3 cottages, and occupying a good sized plot, just on the outskirts of this popular Lakeland village. Amounting to over 2500sq ft of accommodation the house offers versatile accommodation with 4 reception rooms and 6 bedrooms. The reconfiguration and potential are obvious upon viewing.
Built over varying times, now with 2 internal staircases and capable of being reconfigured to ones own desires and specifications. This stone built family home has many interesting retained features including vertical hung slates to the front and side elevation, original beams and built-in cupboards. The 2500sq. ft total floor area would readily convert back to the original layout creating alternative living space which can be used as ancillary accommodation for guests, extended family members or potential rental income.
There is much scope therefore, subject to planning permission, to create 2 or 3 units including new double garage with living accommodation over etc.
Only a short walk to the centre of Coniston with all amenities, the lake and fells alike. A property of fantastic potential now in need of upgrading ready for a new lease of life.
