Sunnythwaite, Hawkshead Hall Lodges, Hawkshead, Ambleside, LA22 0NN

Sunnythwaite is a beautifully presented two bedroom, two bathroom lodge set within an exclusive development of just five properties at Hawkshead Hall, where opportunities to buy are rarely available.

Enjoying a peaceful stream side setting with ample parking, yet only a short walk from the centre of Hawkshead village, it offers the perfect blend of tranquillity, privacy and convenience.

Recently upgraded with new decking, guttering, external redecoration, carpets and appliances, the lodge is offered fully furnished and ready for immediate enjoyment or holiday letting.

A rare combination of 999-year leasehold ownership, low annual site fees, unrestricted year-round use and no stamp duty payable, makes Sunnythwaite particularly attractive to both lifestyle buyers and investors.

Currently operated as a part-time holiday let for 40% of the year, Sunnythwaite generates a gross income of approximately £34,000 per annum, while still allowing significant owner use.

The property has previously achieved in excess of £40,000 per annum as a full time holiday let, demonstrating its strong earning potential.

Combining proven income, low running costs, long term ownership security and an exceptional Lake District location, Sunnythwaite presents a rare opportunity to acquire a high quality retreat with established investment credentials.
