Summary - BADDELEY COTTAGE FERNEY GREEN BOWNESS ON WINDERMERE WINDERMERE LA23 3ES
3 bed 3 bath Semi-Detached
South-facing garden with sweeping lake and fell views, parking for several cars.
3 bedrooms plus loft room with ladder access
Set on an elevated plot within the Lake District National Park, this 1929 stone semi-detached home delivers classic character, expansive outlooks and flexible living. The house offers three principal bedrooms, an additional loft room accessed by ladder, and three bathrooms — practical for family life or extended stays. Large windows and a conservatory focus every reception room towards far-reaching lake and fell views, while a recently fitted country-style kitchen provides modern convenience alongside original features.
Outside, a south-facing garden, slate terraces and terraced planting create sheltered outdoor spaces for al fresco dining and year-round enjoyment. A private driveway provides parking for 3–4 cars, and mature trees frame the plot for privacy. The home is freehold and benefits from mains gas, water, electricity and drainage, plus double glazing throughout.
Buyers should note a few practical limitations: broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is only average, which may affect home working. The area records a higher local crime level than average — buyers may wish to investigate this further. While the interior is well presented in many rooms, there is scope for sensitive updating in places to fully modernise finishes and improve energy performance.
This property will suit families or those seeking a characterful country house with strong holiday-let or part-time-residence potential. Its combination of historic provenance, lake views and substantial outdoor space makes it a rare find close to Bowness amenities and popular walking routes, while also offering clear opportunities to add value through targeted improvements.
