6 Bed Semi-Detached House, Motivated Seller, Windermere, LA23 1EX £1,695,000

The first floor continues to add spirit and style with thoughtful interior design, deserved of the grandeur of this wonderful property. The library, a staple of a house of such calibre, can be found on this level and is a sizeable and tranquil space to unwind and feel at one with the delightful scenery. The bedrooms are characteristically named 'Lowther', 'Banner', 'Dootson', 'Carver', 'Martineau' and 'Sheldon', four of which can be found on the first floor, each benefitting from en-suite shower rooms and magnificent views. There is an additional family bathroom on this floor, fitted with a WC, washbasin, bath and shower. Furthermore, the roof terrace is accessible from the first floor where you will find plenty of space for seating and socialising, providing the perfect opportunity to gather under the summer evening sky.
The final two bedrooms can be found on the top level and come with fitted wardrobes and ample shelving space. A separate shower room with a WC, washbasin, shower and fitted cupboards and a convenient airing cupboard housing the Megaflo hot water tank are located on the landing.

The luxury of North Highfield is not just reserved for the house; there is ample space amongst the gardens, grounds and outbuildings. The car enthusiast's dream, North Highfield is equipped with parking for six cars, multiple garages and a car port with a charging point. Additional utilities consist of a laundry room, utility room, bike store, potting shed, outside boiler room and solar panels.

The mature and well-tended gardens are well-suited to the house and the surrounding landscape and accommodate a large patio, two summerhouses and a charming pond. A fairytale-like private footpath winds down to the lakeshore access and jetty, allowing full enjoyment of North Highfield's favourable location.
