This property enjoys an idyllic location in Finsthwaite, less than 1 mile from the edge of Lake Windermere. There is plenty to see and do both on and around the edge of the lake. You can visit the towns of Bowness (10 miles) and Ambleside (12.5 miles), or the country park at Fell Foot (3.5 miles). The property is situated roughly midway along the West Windermere Way. One direction leads towards Lakeside, where you’ll find Windermere Lake Cruises, the Lakes Aquarium, cafés, and the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway. From here, you can carry on to Newby Bridge. In the opposite direction, the route passes Stott Park Bobbin Mill, the last remaining working bobbin mill in the Lake District. Another option is the High Dam walk above Finsthwaite. This hidden gem offers a peaceful woodland walk around the tarn, which was originally created to provide water power for the bobbin mill.
Upon entering, guests will find themselves in a hallway from which a door leads into the impressive open-plan sitting/ dining room: a stunning, light-filled room with wooden floors, a contemporary-style wood-burner, plump sofas and a Smart TV. A wide opening from the dining area leads through to the sleek, well-equipped kitchen with AGA for year-round warmth. Returning to the sitting area, double doors lead through to a cosy snug room which, with its bay window and wood burner, offers a quiet retreat from the rest of the house and is the ideal place to relax with a drink and good book. Two of the property’s bedrooms are located on the ground floor, the first of which is a chic super-king-size room benefitting from an en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower featuring local slate. The second bedroom is a king-size room with a walk-in wardrobe, close to which is a shower room. Heading back to the main hallway, guests pass a study area, perfect for those who need a work area, before taking the LED-lit stairs to the master bedroom suite on the first floor. This truly magnificent space adds a touch of glamour to the property. The elegant and contemporary space is a true sanctuary, not only offering a super-king-size bedroom and a TV, but its own opulent lounge which was originally designed as an art studio, and a stunning en-suite bathroom with a deep, teardrop shaped, free-standing bath, and separate shower.
Patio doors from the lounge open on to the garden where there is a sloping lawn, as well as a sheltered, private patio seating area with garden furniture and a BBQ. There is ample parking space for three cars. Please note, there is a step up to the entrance of the property.
