High Lorton, Cockermouth, CA13

Dating back to the late 18th century, Kent Cottage is a wonderfully appointed, characterful Lake District cottage, sat within the highly prized rural village of High Lorton; surrounded by the high fells of Lakeland and some of the country's best scenery.

Having undergone an extensive refurbishment during the current ownership, reinstating and preserving the wonderful period details, the accommodation comprises: lounge with inglenook fireplace, bread oven and multi fuel stove, dining room with exposed feature fireplace and dining space for 8-10 people, contemporary kitchen, utility room/downstairs cloak room, principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, two further well proportioned bedrooms and a three piece family bathroom.

Externally there is an easy to maintain courtyard garden to the front, an integral garage and, to the rear, a sun trap cottage garden incorporating patio areas, a wide variety of colourful perennials, shrubbery and mature trees, all backing on to open fields and with fell views.

Properties of this calibre rarely become available in the Lorton Valley and are often snapped up quickly, so an early inspection is a must to avoid missing out.
