Turn the key, walk in, unpack… there’s nothing left to do, besides sit back, relax and enjoy it all. The transformation is remarkable, craftsmanship is impeccable, the result extraordinary.

This fabulous contemporary single level property has been virtually rebuilt as well as massively extended. Both inside and out, every element has been either renewed or added as new, the present structure bearing no resemblance to the tired and dated bungalow that occupied this elevated corner plot before. Inside the centre piece is the substantial open plan living space, delivering an absolute WOW factor, chic, streamlined, sociable and stylish, it’s a room for cooking and eating, for entertaining and being together, as well as being quiet and reflective. There are three king sized bedrooms, an ensuite shower room (with generous space to create a second if required), a family bathroom, a utility room and spacious entrance hall.

Both in the sleek kitchen and the contemporaneous bathroom and shower room, the fixtures and fittings are high specification and skillfully selected.  Flowing throughout the property the harmonious colour palette of greys and neutrals is carefully curated and will prove an easy backdrop for your furniture, art and pictures.

Surrounding the property are fabulous landscaped gardens, purposefully designed to offer maximum enjoyment with the very minimum  of upkeep – with no lawns to mow there should be plenty of time to enjoy barbecues and outside dining on the large seating terrace or a glass of something chilled in the hot tub.

There is parking for two or three cars as well as a single garage. Tucked away in a quiet, well regarded and long established residential enclave, Windermere village itself is within walking distance for everyday needs and thereafter this is a great location for exploring the wider Lake District.

Bought in 2022, transformed over 2023 – 24, here at No. 22, well regarded Windermere based building contractor Dean Adams has brought a wealth of knowledge and experience to the project, undertaking all the hard work so that you don’t have to. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to relax and enjoy.

Quietly tucked away off the main thoroughfare on the outskirts of Windermere village, St Mary’s Park, named after the adjacent church, is an exceptionally convenient setting not only for day to day life but also as a base for exploring the wider glories of the Lake District. Already an easy walk along the main road to reach local services, a footpath also connects straight into the heart of the village and provides a handy shortcut.

With a ready-made community of neighbours, this established residential area has been popular for many decades and is ideal for full or part time living or as an investment opportunity for holiday rental. It’s convenient for schools, shops and local amenities in Windermere, the bus stop on the A591, and benefits from ready access to a fabulous choice of places in which to dine out; establishments offering everything from a light bite to Michelin starred fine dining.

The advantage of life in the centre of such a popular tourist destination is being able to enjoy facilities all year round – cinema, live music, theatre and a wide array of visitor attractions. And if gently ambling, walking, hiking, running, wild swimming or cycling is your passion then could there be a better location? Quite possibly not.

The front door opens to a spacious entryway where there is space for furniture or to build in coat storage. Shoes off and enjoy the underfloor heating through the porcelain floors tiles which start here and flow through into the living kitchen and the utility room for a seamless aesthetic. The utility room has plenty of storage space with pale grey high gloss fronted cabinets and composite worktops, there’s space for a condenser dryer and plumbing for your washer.

Walk into the living kitchen and it’s hard to know what to admire first, the fabulous kitchen or the views beyond through the wall of glazing. Inside and outside become one; the peaks of the fells are visible over the tops of the trees, the garden and neighbourhood trees provide screening for life inside. It’s a truly fabulous and exceptionally generous space. With a large and well equipped kitchen, a natural corner for dining and then a large area which would accommodate a number of seating configurations; one large statement sofa possibly or a smaller L shaped one in front of the fire with a couple of bespoke reading chairs positioned to admire the view, look out to the garden or watch the visiting birds.
