Set on more than an acre on the edge of Glenridding, this contemporary detached home (built 2018) pairs modern design with dramatic Lake District views. Large glazed elevations, polished concrete floors and high ceilings create airy, light-filled living spaces across three levels. The principal suite occupies the entire top floor with its own lounge, dressing area, en suite and a balcony overlooking Ullswater.
The house is arranged for flexible living: open-plan middle level for kitchen, dining and living; a ground-floor bedroom, study and workroom that could convert to further sleeping accommodation; plus a self-contained studio in the grounds useful as guest accommodation, workspace or rental. Energy-efficient comfort comes from air-source powered underfloor heating and an annually serviced boiler. Private parking for several cars and owned woodland add to the sense of seclusion.
Practical points to note: the property uses an annually serviced septic tank and broadband speed is recorded as slow despite on-site fast internet infrastructure — important if high-speed upload/download is essential. The plot is extensive and largely low-maintenance woodland, but its rural setting means services and shops are village-scale rather than urban. Council tax band is low, and flood risk is nil.
This home will suit buyers seeking a contemporary, high-spec rural residence or a premium holiday base in the Lake District National Park. It offers immediate lifestyle appeal and further potential (studio rental or internal reconfiguration) for those wanting additional income or bespoke living arrangements.
