A ground-floor shower room with w/c adds convenience for guests, while thoughtful storage solutions throughout the house ensure practical needs are met without compromising on elegance.
Restful Bedrooms
The staircase leads to a landing that opens to both sides of the house. From here, a composite deck extends outdoors, providing another vantage point over the lake. Designed to withstand Lakeland winters, it is a place for morning coffee, evening drinks, or quiet contemplation in every season.
The principal bedroom sits to the front, a calm space decorated in neutral tones. A bay window frames the view across Windermere, its wide sill the perfect spot for a chair or cushions. Fitted cupboards line one wall, offering ample storage without intruding on the sense of space.
Along the landing is a twin room overlooking the front drive and its shelter of mature trees. This room has a lighter feel, its outlook leafy and green, offering a restful retreat for family or guests.
The third bedroom is particularly characterful, with a large picture window forming a natural reading nook. Decorated in soft florals and pale blues, it has a gentle, uplifting atmosphere. An en-suite bathroom with both bath and shower completes this suite, making it an inviting guest or family space. A further family bathroom serves the upper floor, its window looking out towards the trees and driveway.
Gardens and Grounds
Baddeley Cottage benefits from beautifully tended gardens that wrap around the house. Beds planted with roses and seasonal colour soften the stone terrace, while beyond lies a canopy of mature trees that frame the property in privacy. The combination of established planting and lake views is rare, offering both shelter and outlook in equal measure.
To the side, the decked terrace catches the light through much of the day and provides a more elevated view across the water. At the front, the private driveway ensures ample parking and a sense of arrival worthy of such a house.
A Setting Steeped in Appeal
Ferney Green is one of Bowness-on-Windermere's most admired residential areas. It offers quiet surroundings within a short stroll of the bustling lakeside, where cafés, restaurants, shops, and galleries line the streets. The World of Beatrix Potter, Windermere Lake Cruises, and countless walking trails all lie within easy reach.
For daily living, supermarkets, schools, and independent stores in Bowness and Windermere are close by, while rail links from Windermere station connect to Oxenholme and the West Coast Main Line. By car, the A591 leads north to Ambleside and south towards Kendal and the M6, making travel to the wider region straightforward.
Despite this accessibility, Ferney Green retains a sense of seclusion. Homes here are highly regarded, sought after by those who value both privacy and convenience. The combination of leafy surrounds, proximity to the lake, and architectural character gives Baddeley Cottage a special position within the market.
A Home with Heritage
Owning Baddeley Cottage means becoming part of a story that stretches back more than a century. It is a home that reflects the character of its setting: timeless, graceful, and quietly assured. From its historic name to its outlook across Windermere, every detail contributes to a sense of belonging, of being rooted in place yet connected to the beauty of the wider landscape.
For those seeking a refined house in a location where history and lifestyle meet, Baddeley Cottage offers a rare opportunity.
