Property description & features

  • 3 En-Suite Bedrooms
  • Off Road Parking and Patio Seating Area
  • Central Windermere
  • Completely Refurbished
Location: Set in a fantastic situation in central Windermere with off road parking for 2 vehicles and only a stones throw from Windermere train station and bus stop and with the village's various delightful shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants on the doorstep, you couldn't ask for a better location.

On entering Windermere's one way system off the A591, pass the entrance to Booths and Old Village House is immediately on your left with the parking to the front of the property.  

Description: The owners really have done a fantastic renovation on this property. It has been partially re-roofed, new slated front and rear porches, fully rewired (many plugs have USB charge points), brushed steel light switches and plug sockets throughout. replumbed and replastered, new joinery throughout (internal doors, skirting boards, etc). Roof, floors and most walls fully insulated (leading to an EPC rating of C which is very unusual for a property of this age). External lighting to front and rear. All bedrooms have tv points connected to the Freesat dish. There is a new gas central heating system (with condensing boiler and "Nest thermostats that can be controlled remotely via an APP)., new 'Heritage' range double glazed windows and new composite front and rear doors., new timber flooring, light fittings and bathrooms.

Ensuites to Bedrooms 1 & 2, as well as ground floor shower room, benefit from underfloor heating. Beautiful antique style radiators and quality wooden venetian blinds throughout. The property has been completely redecorated to a very high standard and landscaping undertaken to the front of the property to allow for off road parking for 2 cars on a new block paved driveway and a private patio seating area. The accommodation has been reconfigured by the current owners to make the most of all the available space and in doing so have created a wonderful and unique 3 bedroomed (all ensuite) home or high end holiday let.

To the ground floor there is a large breakfast kitchen, living room, dining room, shower room, cloaks area and access from the hallway through a hidden hatch down to a fabulous basement 'room' – ideal as a snug, home cinema or games room. 2 great size bedrooms to the first floor, each with 4 piece ensuite bathroom. A spiral staircase to bedroom 3, another large room with a freestanding bath and ensuite WC.

Off road parking for 2 cars in the bustling village is unique and really is an added bonus. There is a totally private good sized rear patio terrace with timber pergola, a real little sun trap. There is also a private seating area to the front of the house that soaks up the afternoon and evening sun – a perfect place to enjoy a G&T! The result speaks for itself and it certainly has been worth the time and effort that has gone in to bringing this property into the 21st Century.

The house is newly furnished and equipped and could immediately be holiday let. All contents as seen are available by separate negotiation.
