Check out this ‘superb’ property in the Lake District, with ‘wonderful’ views of the fells and surrounding countryside, is for sale.

There is an ‘excellent’ opportunity to purchase The Briars, which is described as a ‘bright and airy home’ and advertised with a price tag in excess of half a million pounds.

It was advertised for sale on Rightmove on Monday October 21 with an asking price of £675,000 and is marketed by Matthews Benjamin Estate Agents.

‘Ideally’ positioned on the edge of the ‘picturesque’ Lakeland village of Hawkshead, the property at Roger Ground is located around half a mile away from the village centre, which has a variety of amenities including shops, inns, restaurants, a Church and a Primary School.

The estate agent said: “The majority of the accommodation is on the upper level to enjoy the superb fell and country views.

“Tastefully presented to a modern specification, the property has been improved by the current owners. They have extended the kitchen area and reconfigured the layout to create a large open plan living space and two additional bathrooms.”

(Image: Rightmove) Offering ‘well planned’ and ‘spacious accommodation’, the property is currently operating as a well-established holiday let but would make a ‘perfect’ family home.

The property is approached via a private gravel drive and offers ‘ample parking’.

The front door opens onto a split-level hallway, which provides access to the ground floor, including a utility room and a cloakroom.

There is also an ‘attractive’ downstairs double bedroom with fitted oak wardrobe and oak shelving as well as a modern, three-piece shower room suite.

The room boasts a ‘generous’ picture window with fantastic views towards Latterbarrow and glimpses of Esthwaite Water, as well a wood burner stove and slate hearth.

An extended, semi-open plan kitchen features a ‘contemporary’ selection of units, a range of appliances and a door to a paved patio which would be ‘perfect’ for alfresco dining.

There are three upstairs bedrooms, including two ‘attractive’ double rooms, one of which boasts a three-piece ensuite bathroom, plus one single room.

The listing states: “The Briars also benefits from shared ownership of a large paddock to the front which extends to approximately 10.5 acres. This is owned by an independent Management Company who own the Freehold of which The Briars is one of the eleven shareholders. It was purchased by them to protect the view.”
