Generous in scale yet warmly welcoming, this impressive historic house is ideal for families or groups of friends gathering for a special occasion or a relaxing escape. Surrounded by its own grounds and close to Windermere and other Lake District attractions, it boasts wonderful views, a wood burner and a spacious, enclosed garden.
Beautifully restored in 2021, the three-storey, Grade II-listed house combines unique period character with contemporary comforts. Two generous living spaces on the ground floor – both with gorgeous country views – provide flexibility for all ages. The family room centres around a wood burner, a Smart TV and a piano, while the lounge/diner provides space for relaxing on the sofas as well as leisurely meals. In the farmhouse-style kitchen, the cook can enjoy the range cooker as well as a convenient microwave, while the utility room is home to a fridge, freezer and laundry facilities. Three inviting bedrooms occupy the first floor: two king-size and a magnificent super-king-size with a four-poster bed and en-suite with a slipper bath. The family bathroom on this level boasts a roll-top bath, as well as a walk-in shower. On the top floor, you’ll find a twin bedroom tucked under low eaves, with an en-suite shower room. The huge garden includes a sloping lawn, a furnished terrace and a BBQ, and is enclosed by stone walls, hedges and farm gates. Another bonus of this fabulous property is parking for four cars.
