Description

ACCOMMODATION ** As soon as I stepped over the threshold of Lyndhurst I felt a wonderful homely feeling accompanied by a feeling of complete relaxation, sat talking about the property with its current occupiers I didn't want to leave, they like the house, made me feel completely at home, unfortunately they are not included in the sale which is a shame. Many of the occupiers in this coastal village have lived here for years, which is a great testament to the pretty village of Bardsea. With its exceptional beach, sunny elevations and not to mention Roy's famous ice cream van even I have been found here on a lunch break. Situated within easy distance of the vibrant market town of Ulverston this home will attract family buyers, couples and those who want a second home on the coast. Comprising of ample accommodation with good sized rooms to include, lounge, dining room, kitchen/diner with patio doors to a lovely frontal seating area, two shower rooms meaning no fighting in the morning over who gets to brush their teeth first so they can rush to the beach, four bedrooms as well as a perfect Spanish feeling rear patio garden and workshop store creating what can only be described as a must see property. 

 Accessed through a PVC door with opaque double glazed inserts into: 

ENTRANCE HALL Stairs to first floor, ceiling light point, radiator and Karndean flooring. 

LOUNGE 16' 5" x 12' 0" (5m x 3.66m) Light room with good sized box bay to front with uPVC double glazed inserts showing off the view down the hill to the bay, further uPVC double glazed window to side over farmland. Feature, gas fire set to marble style hearth with back, mantle and surround, four wall lights and two radiators.

EXTERIOR To the front of the property is an access lane for further properties, once over this the property can be accessed through a wroght iron pedestrian gate to a holiday style paved seating area with walled frontage. The current owners have created a relation spot with pots offering colour and a climbing rose around the patio doors into the kitchen/diner. Whilst you cant see the sea from here you do have a lovely open side view over farmland to the trees beyond. The rear again would make you think you are on holiday, the weather when I attended may well have helped. With terracotta tiles, wall mounted plants and raised bed with stone work all adds to the relaxing Spanish feel this outside space has. Definitely worth enjoying with a sangria this timeless atheistic look exudes class and embodies everything about blending the outdoors with indoors. 

WORKSHOPSTORAGE 6' 9" x 20' 5" (2.06m x 6.22m) Situated to the side is a excellent addition with folding door to the roadside and PVC door to the enclosed rear patio garden. Having plumbing and space for washing machine with tiled worktop over, two strip lights, gas and electric meters and wall mounted Vaillant boiler.
