At the center of this estate lies the historically significant Grade I Listed Calgarth Hall, a property that presents a unique investment opportunity for those looking to modernize an expansive family residence. This impressive building features six spacious bedrooms and well-proportioned living areas, although it currently requires internal updates to fully realize its potential. One standout feature is the grand first floor reception room, adorned with ornate plaster ceilings believed to originate from the late 16th or early 17th century, which could become a stunning focal point post-renovation.
The hall also includes an attached tack room with promising prospects for conversion into additional living space, subject to obtaining the necessary permissions. Previously part of the Briery Close Arabian Stud known for housing up to 80 horses, the estate retains much of its equestrian infrastructure, making it suitable for continued use in this capacity or redirection toward other ventures.
The former walled garden, now serving as an outdoor manège/school, has potential for restoration back to its original use. Surrounding outbuildings currently utilized for storage offer further opportunities for repurposing or renovation.
Benefitting from direct access to Lake Windermere and about 300 meters of shoreline, this estate's location is both rare and desirable within the Lake District National Park—a UNESCO world heritage site distinguished by its breathtaking natural beauty. The nearby Troutbeck Bridge village provides essential amenities while Windermere town enhances accessibility with a broader selection of shops and schools known for their excellent reputations.
Calgarth Hall Estate perfectly balances seclusion with connectivity; Windermere railway station links directly to London Euston in approximately two hours and forty minutes and Manchester Airport is reachable within ninety minutes. This property offers not only a home but also an investment opportunity in one of England's most cherished landscapes.
