Description
Sunnycroft is located on Penrith Road, just a short walk from the town of Keswick and gives easy access to the main A66 for any direction. Victorian in age, the property has many of the decorative features of this era with the current owner having blended a modern twist to make the most beautiful home that feels comfortable, spacious and very versatile in use. The house is well named as ‘Sunnycroft’ as it is well positioned to catch the sun.
As you approach the property there is parking to the front and side. A slate paved pathway takes you to a covered wooden entrance porch and part glazed door, this enters into the entrance porch with original geometric tiled floor and space to hang coats. Enter through another part glazed door to the stunning entrance hallway with original features and decorative arts and craft to the ceilings. The staircase to the first floor is situated to the right. The hallway leads your firstly to the sitting room, substantial in size with high ceilings and wood burning stove centred in the chimney breast. A bay window dominates the room and allows an abundance of natural light to pour through. An extremely cosy room to relax and entertain in. Following the hallway through you come to the dining room. An elegant room with windows either side of the chimney breast that houses a cast iron feature fireplace with wood surround and marble hearth. This room can easily have a table to seat eight to ten people. The kitchen is sited at the end of the hallway, this has been designed to maximise the existing space whilst retaining the original features and adding in contemporary fittings. A fabulous range of wall and base units with granite work tops, flows to a dining area with windows to the side letting in a wealth of natural light. When leaving the kitchen, a short inner hallway takes you past the boiler room and separate WC into the garden room. This room has wonderful views of Latrigg, and benefits from under floor heating. A wide span of full length French doors across one wall invites you in to the rear garden, further window and door to the side and a fabulous hidden utility cupboard that can house a washing machine, tumble dryer and benefits from a sink, taps and storage. A fantastic room to watch the sunset or sit and contemplate.
The stairs to the first floor take you to a half landing where if you carry on ahead you have a double bedroom and separate shower room. Both are beautifully presented. Following from the half landing and heading to the front of the house there is a lovely double bedroom with views of Latrigg and benefits from an ensuite. The next room is a showstopper, with a large bay window and further windows to the front and side, this room is currently used as a further lounge and study. A large chimney breast is central to the outer wall and houses a gas flame effect fire with tile inlay and marble hearth. High ceilings and coving all add to the charm of this room with views towards Grisedale Pike and Causey Pike. The second staircase takes you to a truly magnificent bedroom that again has double aspect windows with views of Grisedale and Causey Pike. This room benefits from a lovely ensuite. The last bedroom is a good size single or twin, set in the eaves, it has a quirkiness anyone would love. The last room is the bathroom, stylishly designed and spacious, offering bath with shower above.
Outside, to the front, the entrance is bordered by a low Lakeland stone wall that gives access to parking at the front. From here a pathway leads to the front door. A good size wood store and mature shrubs line the stone wall. As you walk down the side of the house, there is further parking and a gate that leads to the rear garden. The garden has been designed to maximise the entertaining space and views. The French doors open up from the sunroom on to a stone chipped seating area, flagged steps take you to a further raised patio area and carry on to a further hidden seating area, all taking advantage of the sun and views. A shed is located at the end of the garden.
The house is fully double glazed and has gas fired central heating.
