Description

Located on the shores of Lake Windermere, this Grade I Listed Calgarth Hall presents a unique opportunity for renovation within a historically significant property. With six spacious bedrooms and ample living areas, the building retains its grandeur but requires modern updates to unlock its full potential as a family home or investment property. The first-floor reception room boasts intricate plasterwork dating back to the late 16th century, offering a glimpse into the hall's storied past. An existing tack room provides an exciting prospect for conversion into additional residential space (subject to necessary approvals). The estate, once known as Briery Close Arabian Stud, includes various stables organized around a charming courtyard. These structures could serve new purposes or continue in their equestrian capacity, depending on redevelopment plans. Additionally, the former walled garden now houses an outdoor manege but could easily be reverted to gardens or other uses. The grounds feature several outbuildings currently utilized for storage, which also present conversion possibilities. Further enhancing the property's appeal is direct access to Lake Windermere with approximately 300 meters of shoreline—a rare find that adds significant value. Nestled in the acclaimed Lake District National Park, this estate offers both accessibility and tranquility amidst breathtaking natural scenery while being close to local village amenities and schools in nearby Windermere.
