Description: With breath taking, panoramic lake and mountain views, this neatly presented 3 bedroomed link detached house is on the fringes of Windermere on a small private cul-de-sac and feels a million miles away from the hustle and bustle with fantastic garden, attached single garage and off road parking.
As you step into the entrance hall, the space is naturally bright, with wood effect flooring and 2 large floor length windows. Ahead of you is a WC, with a towel rail, WC, sink and mirror above.
Down the hallway to the right is the Kitchen, which has space for a dining table, wood effect floor, and ample white wood effect wall and base units. A stainless steel sink and window above with an aspect to front garden, and grey tile splash backs offer style. A Kitchen stove has a gas hob and electric oven, a free standing fridge as well as an integrated Blomberg dishwasher all add convenience.
From here, a door to the utility room, which holds the Worcester gas boiler, plumbing for a washing machine and another convenient downstairs WC. Access to the garage is given, space for one car, storage and shelving and plumbing with sink and double doors to the front and a large window and single door to the terrace and garden to the rear.
Opposite the kitchen is a useful storage cupboard under the stairs. Continuing down the hallway, you reach the living room. This room is arguably the property's greatest asset, with panoramic views, unobstructed to the Lake and fells beyond, all the better with a 12 foot wide window. Another window looking onto the fellside to the side. This rare, sought after view is breathtaking, even on the more cloudy days, and here there is ample space for furnishings, and additional dining table, and a feature wood burning fire with a slate surround. A single patio door offers easy access from the living area to the large outdoor terrace/ patio, which again offers the same fabulous view, and perfect to be enjoyed on warmer evenings. Space for dining table and outdoor furnishings, this area is a true rarity and not one to be missed.
Upstairs, the landing has a large window with an aspect to surrounding fields, and Bedroom 1, a double with an elevated dramatic outlook towards the Lake and Langdales. There is built-in storage and space for additional furnishings.
Bedroom 2 is also a double, with an aspect to the mature rear garden and again, fabulous views, with built-in shelving and an additional sink with vanity mirror over. Bedroom 3 has an aspect to the front and fields, and an opening side window, excellent for lake photos. This room is a single, currently with bunk beds, with a sink with vanity mirror and light above in the cupboard.
The bathroom has tile effect flooring and a heated towel rail with tile walls, giving it a fresh appearance, sink and fitted bath with shower over and WC.
Outside, this property offers not only the sought after paved terrace, but access to a beautifully maintained mature garden. A public footpath runs at the bottom of the garden, open to the public, and linking to walks to School Knott and surrounding areas.
This home is in great decorative order and offers breathtaking, sought-after views of the fells and Lake Windermere. With its peaceful location and extensive garden space, this hidden gem is an opportunity not to be missed. Don't miss out on becoming the owner of this idyllic property, book a viewing today.
