    "Walnut House"    
    Scales.  Nr. Ulverston  LA12 0PE    
    £285,000    

 

"Walnut House" is a most distinctive and impressive house situated in the Furness Village of Scales, convenient for easy access to Ulverston,  Barrow and the South Lakes and the coast of the lovely Morecambe Bay is only a mile or so away.   It  is believed to date from  around 1753 and was formerly three Cottages.  The accommodation is both spacious and comfortable and the house certainly retains a distinctive ambience, some original features and modern benefits of double glazing and central heating.

On the Ground Floor there is a large comfortable Lounge ( 11'10 x 21'3 formerly 2 rooms) which has window seats, exposed timber and a modern fire-grate with an open fire.  There is a separate, quite charming Sitting Room ( 9'6 x 15'8) with a fireplace with an open fire,  and an original oven. The Kitchen ( 8'8 x 10'0) is fitted with a range of units and includes the oil-fired central heating boiler.  There are communicating doors to the Dining Room ( 10'8 x 10'2) and there is a rear hall ( 5'9 x 9'9) big enough to take an item, or two, of furniture, and a Shower Room ( 13'5 x 5'8 max) fitted with a Shower, Hand Basin and W.C.

On the Upper Floor, there are 3 bedrooms ( 9'6 x 12'2,  9'6 x 12'2 and 16'1 x 10'3)  all fine "doubles" all with wardrobes.  The Bathroom (6'0 x 7'5) has a fitted 3-piece suite in pink, tiled walls and an airing cupboard.  From Bedroom 1 there is an access hatchway to a big loft via a Slingsby extending ladder.

Outside, to the front and side are gardens which have been laid with natural slate for ease of maintenance.  To the rear is a huge Courtyard which is Private, neighbours only having a Pedestrian Right of Way over it.  They cannot park there.  There are 2 large Garages.

In summary, this is a very pleasant house, indeed,  with spacious and well arranged accommodation, with Double Glazing and Oil-Fired Central Heating,  in a lovely Low Furness Village.
