FIRST FLOOR
The first floor, about 170 sq m (1,831 sq ft), holds all of the living space and is reached by steps up to a central hallway. The standout room is the impressive 8.30m x 4.90m lounge diner, with a living flame gas fire and doors out to two balconies, one looking over the river. Alongside it is a characterful kitchen diner with an inglenook housing a dual fuel range cooker, granite worktops and oak flooring, leading to a handy rear porch. There are four double bedrooms, three with en-suite shower rooms and the fourth with a Jack and Jill bathroom with a Jacuzzi spa bath, and two of the bedrooms share a front balcony over the river. A separate cloakroom completes the floor.

GROUND FLOOR
The ground floor is a vast storage area. It runs under almost the whole footprint of the building and is divided into a series of store rooms, so it suits bikes, boats, tools, hobbies or business stock. An integral garage with a vehicle door opens straight into it, so there is no carrying things in from outside. There are external steps up to the front door and to the rear porch.
Storage rooms and Integral garage
Outside
There are attractive gardens to the front and side, a yard to the rear, and a block-paved drive with room for several cars. A detached garage and workshop with power, water and a mezzanine store sits beside the house. The integral garage has its own door through to the undercroft. The property also comes with rights to fish for brown trout and salmon on the River Eamont, which suits anglers and river lovers alike.
Location
Eamont Bridge is a village with a real sense of place. It has two pubs, a Grade I listed medieval bridge and the ancient King Arthur’s Round Table henge, and it sits just a mile south of Penrith. From here you can be on the Ullswater shore, out on the fells or exploring the Eden Valley within minutes. Penrith is the “Gateway to the North Lakes”, with schools, supermarkets, a mix of independent and high street shops, a leisure centre, a cinema and the Playhouse. The M6, A66 and A6 and the West Coast Main Line railway all connect there.
