Brackenrigg is an exceptionally large, newly renovated detached home set within approximately 0.75 acres and with access to 52 acres of semi‑ancient woodland and private lake frontage. The house combines Arts-and-Crafts-inspired stonework and contemporary detailing: a dramatic triple-height living room, SieMatic kitchen with high‑end Miele and Gaggenau appliances, whole‑home Sonos, and extensive terraces and balconies that frame lake and woodland views. A private boathouse and jetty provide direct access to Windermere.
The property has strong resilience features: triple‑glazed windows, CCTV and alarm systems, a backup generator, and a modern Gant boiler recently installed. The layout includes a principal suite with two walk‑in wardrobes, a self‑contained guest suite above the double garage, multiple reception spaces, utility and plant rooms, and parking for 8–10 cars. Underfloor heating, a log burner and quality joinery underline the high specification throughout.
Buyers should note important practical considerations. The site is in a high flood‑risk area and lakeside position increases exposure; appropriate insurance and flood mitigation servicing are essential. The home sits in a secluded hamlet with average mobile and broadband speeds and uses private estate water and a sewage treatment plant, both of which carry ongoing maintenance responsibilities. The scale, grounds and estate rights mean higher running and maintenance costs than a standard house.
This home will suit purchasers seeking a high‑quality, versatile country estate with lakeside access and extensive private land — ideal for outdoor lifestyle families, those wanting entertaining space, or buyers seeking a premium holiday/second home. The property’s size, setting and specification deliver immediate usability, but practical running considerations and flood risk should be factored into viewing and purchase decisions.
