It is described as 'comfortable', 'well presented', and equipped accommodation including gas central heating and double glazing, a modern kitchen, and a bathroom. 

Edwin Thompson, the estate agent said: "This is a most attractive situation in the middle of Keswick, the principal tourist centre for the northern part of the Lake District National Park.

"The town offers a wide range of amenities, activities, and attractions and is within a minute’s walk to shops, restaurants, and pubs. Set at the northern end of Derwentwater, with Skiddaw as a backdrop, its location is second to none.

"Buses also go east to Penrith and south to Ambleside, Windermere, and Kendal.

"Outside is shared access to the entrance door. This is an easily maintained property and should appeal to a wide range of potential purchasers."
