Mr Canetti

“Lovely clean, stylish, well above average property”

- Mr Canetti,

The property

In a quiet residential area overlooking Ambleside this spacious and delightful detached split level bungalow will make an excellent location for your Lakeland holiday at any time of the year. Comfortably and stylishly furnished the property stands in a corner position with a mature garden and ample private parking - ideal for those who want to 'leave the car at home' whilst enjoying all the walking and other activities in this beautiful area. Ambleside centre or Lake Windermere are ten minutes walk down the hill. Take a lake cruise on England's longest lake or enjoy the selection of local shops, restaurants, pubs and cafes offering all manner of Lakeland delicacies and for those not quite so sunny days, there is a superb cinema to catch the latest film. There is easy access on foot to Wansfell, Loughrigg and The Fairfield Horseshoe and plenty of lower level walks to keep all the party happy. Accommodation: Several steps to front door (sloping path to back door only has a couple of steps). Entrance hall with room for coats and boots, leading into the delightful open plan living area with a superb kitchen with granite worktops, dining and sitting area with views. Patio door leads out onto a patio/balcony with table and chairs and views across the valley to Loughrigg. (flat screen TV with BT TV, DVD, iPod docking station, free wi-fi and electric fire.) Rear utility porch and backdoor to rear garden. The house has four bedrooms - one with a king-size bed, one with a double bed and a single at one end of the house. A further spacious twin (portable TV) is reached up a few steps from the open plan living area and offers a good sense of privacy away from the rest of the family. Two bathrooms both with heated towel rails - one has bath with shower, basin and wc, and the other has shower, basin and wc. The property has a light and sunny feel and is immaculately decorated, furnished and equipped to a high standard, in pastel colours with fitted carpets throughout and good fabrics, with a selection of games, books and DVDs. Outside: In addition to the patio/verandah there is a second sunny patio to the side of the house offering a good degree of privacy and with garden table and chairs provided. The garden is mostly of gravel with mature shrubs and high hedges. Ample parking for two/three cars. Access to garage for bike storage and wet weather gear.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Windermere 4 miles; Grasmere 4 mile; Keswick 15 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.
