4 Bed Detached House, Single Let, Windermere, LA23 1DJ £1,350,000

Upstairs, the house continues to surprise with its versatility. Three spacious double bedrooms are arranged across the first floor. The principal bedroom enjoys an elevated outlook over the garden and towards Rayrigg Wood, bringing woodland hues into view through the seasons. Storage has been cleverly integrated, including loft access and built-in dressers that enhance practicality without compromising space.

Another room currently serves as a dressing room but could as easily become a single bedroom or a dedicated study. The family bathroom, styled with a subtle coastal influence, feels light and fresh, complementing the home's overall tone.

Outside, the gardens are a genuine delight. Designed and planted by the owners over decades, they have matured into a layered and richly textured landscape. Snowdrops emerge early in the year, followed by seasonal colour that carries through spring and summer. Seating areas are positioned to capture sun at different times of day. The garden is south-facing, ensuring warmth and light from morning until evening.

A pathway leads through the planting to a double garage, with an EV charger, and comfortable parking for two cars using both the drive and the garage. Wildlife is a regular visitor, adding movement and life to an already tranquil setting. The overall impression is one of privacy without isolation.

The location underpins the appeal. Nab Gate is tucked away, yet within easy walking distance of Windermere's amenities. Independent cafés, restaurants and everyday shops are close at hand. Windermere railway station connects directly to Oxenholme and onwards to London Euston, making the house as practical as it is picturesque. Lake Windermere itself lies moments away, offering sailing, paddleboarding and lakeside walks. Orrest Head and the surrounding fells provide accessible routes for those drawn to the landscape.

Nab Gate has been shaped by long-term stewardship. Improvements have been made with care rather than haste, always with an eye to proportion and longevity. The result is a home that feels settled and authentic, neither overworked nor underplayed.
For a family seeking space within walking distance of the village, or for a couple looking to embrace Windermere life full-time, Nab Gate offers both substance and setting. It is a house with history, light and garden at its core. The next custodians will inherit not just bricks and mortar, but a home that has been loved and lived in deeply, ready to welcome new memories beneath its bay windows and beside its fires.
