2 bed flat for sale

New Road, Windermere LA23

Sale of a spacious two bed ground floor apartment located in a fine old Edwardian building positioned close to the bustling centre of Windermere, yet tucked away off the high street in its own private space on the corner of Birthwaite Road and New Road. The flat is one of four properties that have been converted from a former gentlemen's residence and the grandeur of the preceding house is evident in the large rooms, high ceilings and finer detailing.

The accommodation comprises of an entrance porch, grand hallway, large lounge, master bedroom with ensuite and dressing room, second bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom. Additionally there is a large cellar which could offer potential for conversion into a habitable space subject to building regulations.

Internally there is a mix of secondary and single glazing and gas central heating. Outside you will find an allocated parking space and shared gardens that are maintained by the four residencies.

The property is on a long lease and the building is managed by the residents. Being just a stone's throw from Windermere Town Centre with it's many restaurants, cafes and bars, this is an ideal opportunity for those looking for a holiday home, holiday rental, or a permanent home to live in and enjoy life in the Lakes.
