Set over three floors on the edge of Bowness marina, this well-presented three-bedroom apartment delivers dramatic waterside views and a spacious open-plan living area ideal for socialising or short‑term letting. The large first‑floor living/kitchen extends to a full-width balcony overlooking the harbour, providing strong natural light and a real sense of place. High-quality finishes — oak joinery, modern tiling and integrated NEFF appliances — make the property largely move‑in ready.
The apartment has three ensuite bedrooms plus a family bathroom and cloakroom, flexible for a permanent home, a holiday base or a proven holiday‑let. Designated off‑road parking and good mobile signal are practical benefits; superfast fibre (c. 80 Mbps) supports remote working or bookings. The long lease (232 years remaining) and clear layout add ownership certainty.
Buyers should note material negatives honestly: the property is leasehold with an average service charge of £1,812 and it lies in a high flood‑risk area. The wider area records higher crime statistics than average; prospective purchasers should factor insurance and mitigation costs into budgets. No private garden is provided — outdoor amenity is the balcony and marina setting.
Overall this apartment will appeal to investors seeking a successful holiday‑let in a premier Lake District marina and to buyers wanting a low‑maintenance, high‑impact waterside home. Viewings advised to appreciate the harbour aspect, proportions and accommodation over three levels.
