Property description
Occupying a splendid location to the fringe of the village, White Gables was built in 1907, and is a fine example of an Arts and Crafts movement property exhibiting many original features from the era in the generous use of oak and stained glass. The property has an interesting history in that originally the large sitting room was a shop selling linen goods and Ruskin lace all made in a workroom upstairs. This sitting room is a particular feature having a high, arched ceiling, a stunning fireplace with built in inglenook seating with stained glass to the bay window enjoying the views to the Lakeland mountains. The property provides interesting two bedroom accommodation in an excellent location with all of the village amenities on the doorstep with the village having strong connections to William Wordsworth. There is a private, secluded garden with summer house and off road parking together with a single garage.
