Eller Close House is a traditional Lakeland property occupying a great location on the outskirts of Grasmere.

It offers a superb business opportunity to any buyer as it is currently a popular holiday let which generates in the region of £50,000 a year.

The property is for sale with the benefit of all future bookings plus contents.

If you don't want to run a commercial operation then Eller Close, which has been updated in recent years, would make a superb family home.

It has spacious and flexible accommodation with a wealth of character and period features and has beautiful landscaped gardens with stunning views across the valley to the surrounding fells.

Eller Close House forms part of a pretty Lakeland estate and is adjoined by two smaller cottages which share a private car park. The house has three spaces here.

The front door opens into an attractive and spacious vestibule which leads on to a square entrance hall with slate-tiled flooring from where the ground-floor rooms are accessed.

The sitting room has a dual aspect with a feature bay window, flanked by characterful pine shutters, flooding the room with natural light.

A multi-fuel stove set within a slate hearth and mantle keeps the space cosy in the winter and in the warmer months you can throw open a door to the garden.

The dining kitchen provides a fantastic heart of the home for Eller Close House.

It boasts bespoke hand-painted Shaker-style wall and floor cabinets in a contemporary grey colour with Silestone worktops and slate-effect flooring. There are lovely views of the garden.

Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms all have en-suite bathroom or shower facilities and offer views of different aspects of the gardens and surrounding countryside.

The beautiful gardens are sheltered and private with gently sloping lawns, mature and well-stocked borders and a sunny aspect with stunning views.

A hotel is within walking distance of the house, offering food and drink in a selection of restaurants, while there are further facilities in the village centre.
