Description This outstanding, 5 bedroomed detached house, built by renowned builders G.H. Pattinsons in 1921, offers exceptional accommodation in a sought after area, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Lake District. With stunning views of the Lakeland Fells and Lake Windermere, this property provides a peaceful and serene location whilst still being convenient to nearby amenities and surround by 2 3/4 acres of well tended gardens.

Entering the property through the large Oak door and into the entrance hall it quickly becomes apparent that this house has been well loved and looked after by the current owners, it is immaculately presented! The high ceilings with Oak beams and Oak paneling to the walls really make this grand entrance hall a most welcoming area and the perfect introduction to this magnificent property.

The house boasts two amazing reception rooms on the ground floor, both overlooking the flawless gardens, providing ample space for entertaining guests or relaxing with family. The features of the house continue through into these rooms with Oak paneling to walls, beams to ceilings, ornate cupboard and flooring.

In the dual aspect living room are two beautiful semi circular bay windows with window seats offering plenty of natural light and taking full advantage of the views of Lake Windermere, the surrounding Lakeland fells, neighbouring field and perfectly landscaped mature gardens. A fabulous bespoke fireplace with exposed stone, marble hearth and Oak mantle houses a large wood burning stove ideal for cosying up those cold winters nights. The dining room offers a fantastic entertaining area and is light and airy again being dual aspect.

The dining kitchen is a delightful space, equipped with wall and base units and integrated appliances of oven, microwave, induction hob with extractor fan above and dishwasher, plus a separate utility with additional worktops, wall and base units and plumbing for a washing machine. The dining area is spacious with alcove shelving and built in cupboards and an exposed brick fireplace with slate hearth and Oak mantle housing the wood burning stove. This room also benefits from sliding patio doors leading to the patio terraces; perfect for al fresco dining amongst the colourful array of plants, shrubs and trees in the summer months.

In 2018 planning permission was granted to demolish and re-erect the garage creating a fantastic triple garage with electric up and over door and access to the gardens plus an additional entrance hallway with a separate modern WC.

To the lower ground floor there is a large games rooms with beams to the ceiling, built in cupboards and bar, a large stone fireplace and a cold store with Lakeland slabs. This could potentially become ancillary accommodation for a relative having its own private entrance.

Taking the Oak return staircase to the first floor landing where the 5 generously sized bedrooms, all with beautiful views, can be found, ample accommodation for a family and guests, plus the house bathroom and a separate shower room. The master bedroom features an en-suite bathroom complete with a luxurious four-piece suite and a door to a terrace seating area overlooking the gardens and with superb views of Lake Windermere.

To the front of the property through the private electric gates is a sweeping driveway with plants, trees and shrubs to either side creating privacy and tranquility that continues throughout the rest of the front gardens.
To the side of the property is a large timber summer house with veranda and patio seating area and a separate timber garden shed perfect for storage. And to the rear of the property are patio seating areas and lawned gardens encompassing mature trees including Oak, Fir and Beech trees and colourful plants including Roses, Azaleas, Rhododendrons and Hydrangeas - the aroma is simply divine!

To add to the already pleasing surroundings the gardens have a jaw dropping backdrop with views of Lake Windermere and the surrounding Fells, you do not want to miss this property!
