Plan a fun-filled break at this welcoming Lake District escape, set in a peaceful residential area in Ambleside. It has gorgeous south-facing views across open fields towards the fells beyond Lake Windermere, whetting your appetite perfectly for days out exploring. From your front door, walk 50 metres to a path leading to superb walking routes towards Wansfell Pike (1.5 miles) and Troutbeck (2.5 miles). Ambleside's village centre and the shores of Lake Windermere are both around 0.5 miles downhill, with easy access to cafes, shops and scenic lakeside strolls. Nature lovers can also visit the impressive Stock Ghyll Force waterfall (1 mile) or wander through the tranquil National Trust Stagshaw Gardens (1 mile), known for its informal woodland setting and colourful shrubs and trees.
The front entrance features a couple of steps that lead to an enclosed porch. From here, you'll enter a bright hallway where you can hang your coats before transitioning into the cream Shaker-style kitchen. This has lovely granite worktops along with everything you need for easy self-catering. The spacious L-shaped sitting and dining room is flooded with natural light thanks to its sunny southerly aspect and windows framing far-reaching views, even towards Fairfield. Here, you'll find a Smart TV with Freeview and Netflix, a DVD player, Bluetooth speaker and an electric fire, creating a cosy and sociable space. French doors lead out to the garden so you can easily let the outside in. There are two comfortable bedrooms: a king-size room with an en-suite shower room, and a twin with an en-suite bathroom. A separate family bathroom with a shower over the bath completes the layout. The additional 'Map Room' provides additional storage and direct access to the rear garden.
Outside, the property is surrounded by its own garden, with an open-plan frontage and a rear lawn that enjoys lovely field views. Take meals out to the patio area to enjoy the fresh Lakeland air. A garage accessible from the porch provides space for one car or for storing bikes, boots and outdoor gear, and also houses a useful laundry area. The private driveway has parking for two more cars.
