Flat 4, Gatefoot Mill, Windermere Road, Staveley, LA8 9PL

Opportunity to purchase a newly renovated self-contained ground floor two- bedroom apartment created from a former Bobbin Mill in the popular village of Staveley located within the Lake District National Park. The apartment enjoys delightful views from the front towards the Kentmere Fells, overlooking the River Gowan to the rear and has private parking and a private garden area looking over the river. 

The whole development was purchased in 2020 and fully refurbished in 2022. Upgraded to a beautiful and high specification and includes a new gloss grey kitchen with stone worktops, modern three- piece shower room, contemporary electric radiators, solid oak doors and double glazed windows throughout. The apartments have no restrictions and can be used for permanent homes, second homes, holiday lets or long- term letting. 

The property has been operating as a one bedroom holiday letting property since the summer of 2023 and is expected to generate approximately £27,600 annually. Currently let with Let Me Stay and is being sold as a going concern with all forward bookings and majority of contents. However the property would be equally suitable as a ideal retirement property or lock up and leave second home. 

Well placed with a short and relatively level walk to the amenities on offer in the village centre including Spar shop, chemist, Public House and the popular Staveley Mill yard with cafes etc. On a bus route and there is also a railway station. There are endless fell and country walks from the doorstep.
