SUMMARY

Long Meadow is a highly desirable country property, situate within the hamlet of Little Arrow, between Coniston and Torver in the heart of the Lake District National Park.

Located on the southerly periphery of the hamlet, Long Meadow has a wonderful southerly aspect with a splendid view from the picture window in the lounge, overlooking the paddock. The true bungalow is well placed for walking in and around the Coniston area, with the Coniston Old Man range of fells to the west, Torver Commons to the south-east and the shores of Coniston Water to the east.

Coniston village with all the associated amenities and facilities, is within five minutes drive.

The original bungalow, owned by the sellers for many years has been carefully extended and maintained and presented to a highly satisfactory standard. There is potential to extend and alter the existing accommodation, subject to satisfactory planning permission.

The bungalow is complimented by the lovely lawned gardens and grounds which include a fine variety of flowering trees, shrubs and an orchard. There is a detached garage block with a workshop.

Adjacent to the southerly boundary of the gardens is a paddock extending to approximately one acre which includes an amenity copse with a variety of hardwood species.

Nearby additional land is available by separate negotiation. This field extends to approximately two acres and includes a stable and hay store.

Long Meadow will be of interest to those with equestrian pursuits and also to hobby farmers.

Inspection is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the attributes, particularly the quality of the presentation, scope for alteration and/or extension, but most importantly the virtues of the site and location.
