A superbly located and stylishly improved Lakeland family home, Croftlands enjoys stunning views over open fields to Latterbarrow in one direction, and the Coniston fells in the other, not forgetting Esthwaite water glistening in the distance to the south. With early 20th Century origins (built in 1901) the house now provides adaptable modern living accommodation, offering 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and 2 excellent reception rooms. Quietly placed in the peaceful hamlet of Colthouse, this detached property sits peacefully within just under an acre of garden. Entered via a covered porch and welcoming hallway it is easy to be drawn immediately to the superbly equipped family dining kitchen (supplemented by separate utility/laundry room). Both the lounge and the snug enjoy wonderful views and additionally there is a cloakroom, shower room, large workshop/bike store, with table tennis table, and utility/laundry on this level. On the first floor are 5 spacious bedrooms, a triple, a twin, and three doubles. All with views, and each revelling in its own character with delightful individual touches. Also on this floor is both a bathroom, and a modern shower room. The mature gardens extend to just under an acre and include a rich variety of mature shrubs and trees, plenty of car parking provision, secure bike storage, view points and privacy.
