Description

This charming residence, set on an elevated plot of approximately 0.35 acres, offers remarkable renovation potential in one of the Lake District's most sought-after areas. Originally part of a grand eleven-bedroom estate, the property has been divided into three separate homes, each boasting its own private garden and captivating views of Lake Windermere and Loughrigg Fell. While the current owners have undertaken extensive renovations over the past six years—including work on the roof, electrics, plumbing, and landscaping—there may still be opportunities to enhance or customize aspects of this home to elevate its value further. Spanning around 1730 square feet, this property features two inviting reception rooms, a traditional kitchen, three double bedrooms, and a modern bathroom. The stunning cobbled driveway provides off-road parking for over three vehicles and leads to a detached double garage with a mezzanine. The scenic location invites outdoor enthusiasts to explore the surrounding natural beauty with direct access to hiking trails and proximity to water activities at nearby marinas. The community amenities in Waterhead are conveniently just a short stroll away, offering various dining options alongside Lake Windermere's attractions. With its historical significance dating back to 1830 and previous associations with notable figures including William Wordsworth, this home not only promises serene living but also presents a unique investment opportunity within England's largest National Park.
