A rare opportunity to purchase a semi-detached cottage constructed of high quality weathered Lakeland slate. In need of full restoration along with derelict buildings and land. Located within the stunning Lake District National Park. A recent full structural report has been carried out on the property and the findings are that the property is 'structurally capable of being converted to a dwelling without the necessity of undertaking any significant demolition and rebuilding of walls.' The cottage measures approximately 8m x 4m and is of 2 storeys. Within the plot, set in around 1/4 of an acre of grounds and woodland, are the footprints of a former wood store and broom handle making factory both measuring approximately 5.5m square. There is also enough weathered Lakeland slate on the land to face any new conversion. An architect has suggested that the property has potential to be split into TWO dwellings. Ideal for builders and developers.
