About this property

Commanding an elevated setting with superb views of Lake Windermere, this architect designed detached home was built in 1955 in a traditional Lakeland style. When the present owners were looking for a family home in the Lakes in 2013 they set out to create and transform the house into their dream home. With new joinery installed throughout the house in 2014, the property now offers well-proportioned rooms providing a double garage, an ensuite double bedroom with utility space and access to a spacious undercroft. On the first floor there is a lounge with large contemporary balcony off, a dining kitchen with conservatory, a further three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
