Three Hollies is a spacious, newly renovated four-bedroom detached home set on a very large plot in Ferney Green, a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of Bowness-on-Windermere. The house faces west and benefits from wide views over the garden to Lake Windermere and Claife Heights; the principal bedroom’s private balcony and the terrace are standout spots for evening sunsets and outside dining. Generous living rooms, oak floorboards and original period details combine with contemporary kitchen and bathrooms for comfortable family living.
The layout works well for family life: a sociable dining kitchen with Aga and wood-burning stove, separate sitting and snug rooms with open fires, utility and a practical wet room on the ground floor for muddy boots or dogs. The detached garage has been converted to a useful gym/workspace (power and light) and there is ample off-street parking including a car port. Landscaped, mature gardens with screened planting provide privacy and safe paved areas for children and pets.
Practical points to note: the house was constructed c.1900–1929 with cavity walls assumed without added insulation; while recently upgraded (central heating, double glazing and renewed interiors), loft and wall insulation may need checking if energy efficiency is a priority. Broadband is average (circa 80/20 Mbps) while mobile signal is excellent. Council Tax is in a high band and the local crime statistic is noted as high for the area—buyers should consider these ongoing costs and local factors.
Location is a key strength: close walking distance to Bowness village amenities, shops, cafes and transport links, yet set in a peaceful residential neighbourhood with direct access to walks, water sports and local schools. This property suits families (main or second home) seeking a characterful house with generous outdoor space and exceptional lake and fell views, while buyers wanting top-tier energy efficiency or very low running costs should allow for further insulation work.
