Sandburne and Sandburne Cottage is an exceptional Georgian residence combining timeless elegance with generous, versatile living space. This impressive seven-bedroom home (three en-suite) has been thoughtfully and tastefully restored by the current owner, preserving its character while introducing modern comforts. Occupying an elevated position on Chestnut Hill just moments from the centre of Keswick, the property enjoys breathtaking panoramic views across the surrounding Lake District fells, particularly from the rear elevation.
The beautifully proportioned accommodation blends period charm with contemporary convenience. The welcoming entrance hallway features a wood-burning stove, setting the tone for the warmth and character found throughout. Two elegant reception rooms boast striking statement fireplaces, while the principal living room is enhanced by a delightful feature bay window framing picturesque garden and fell views. To the front of the property, the kitchen/breakfast room enjoys a box bay window and provides an inviting space for family life and entertaining.
The first floor offers a spacious open study area, two double bedrooms with en-suite facilities, a family bathroom and an additional WC. The second floor provides two further bedrooms (one en-suite) along with a useful storage/laundry room, ensuring practicality matches the home’s scale.
Sandburne Cottage, currently separate but historically incorporated into the main house in 1951, presents exciting potential. Subject to the necessary consents, it could easily be reintegrated to create a substantial single residence. The cottage comprises a generous hallway, rear conservatory, kitchen, living room and WC on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a modern bathroom above.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished period home in one of the Lake District’s most desirable settings, offering both refined living and remarkable flexibility.
