Nestled within three-quarters of an acre of picturesque gardens and woodlands, this charming 4-bedroom detached residence offers a unique opportunity for renovation and personal customization. Built in the 1930s by the esteemed Pattinsons, this traditional Lakeland stone cottage is rich with character and original features, setting a warm tone throughout. While the property is currently move-in ready, there remains substantial potential to modernize or even extend the home, pending planning permission, allowing you to truly transform it into your dream living space.
The spacious layout includes a generous living room with triple aspect windows that flood the area with natural light while providing stunning views over the garden. The dining room showcases classic quarry tiles and an authentic stove cooking range, making it a cozy spot for meals.
The well-proportioned kitchen has ample cabinetry, complemented by a rear porch ideal for muddy boots after exploring the sprawling grounds. Ascending upstairs reveals four sizeable bedrooms, each featuring original fireplaces and large windows that bathe them in light. The family bathroom is also spacious enough to include both a bath and separate shower.
Outside, the expansive gardens are not only beautiful but also versatile; they offer various levels ideal for outdoor dining or leisure activities like hosting barbeques. A standalone shed and workshop adjacent to the carport provide additional utility spaces ripe for development or enhancement.
This property represents an excellent chance to invest in a home that invites creativity while offering serene lake views—an enticing blank canvas waiting for your vision.
