Mill House, Whitbeck, Cumbria, LA19 5UP

Located in a fabulous elevated position, where the Lake District National Park meets the sea, with a backdrop of the western fells and far reaching views to the front over fields to the Irish Sea beyond, a charming and appealing, traditional, 3 bed cottage, with ample gardens and attached woodland Dating in part to the late 17th century and presented in excellent order throughout, Mill House offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached family home, enjoying a delightful setting within a peaceful corner of the Lake District National Park.

Situated at the end of a quiet no-through lane, the property occupies a generous plot with direct access to fell land at the rear, making it an ideal base for exploring Black Combe and the Western Fells.

Originally a miller's cottage, the property has been sympathetically extended over the years and now provides spacious, versatile accommodation.

The ground floor comprises an entrance porch to the rear, a well-appointed kitchen/dining room with range cooker, a cosy winter sitting room, and a generously proportioned lounge and conservatory.

Both the lounge and conservatory overlook the front gardens and benefit from a westerly aspect, creating the perfect setting from which to enjoy spectacular sunsets.

To the first floor are three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, together with a four-piece family bathroom.

Externally, formal gardens lie to the front of the property, while to the rear there is a useful patio courtyard incorporating a separate utility/wash house and dog run.

A mature copse of trees borders the property to the side, enhancing the sense of privacy and character.

Parking is available for two to three vehicles, and a separate stone-built store is situated on the lane. Please refer to the accompanying site plan for further details.

The property is well positioned for access to both northern and southern routes, connecting Whitehaven, the central Lake District, and the surrounding area.

The popular coastal town of Millom and the scenic Duddon Estuary are located less than five miles away.
