Set over two floors in the heart of Windermere, this two-bedroom maisonette blends period character with practical modern comforts. The dual-aspect living room on the upper level is bright and airy with rooftop views and a focal fireplace; recent redecoration and new carpets make the flat ready to occupy. Gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and fast broadband add everyday convenience.
The layout works well for a first home, second holiday base or buy-to-let: two double bedrooms, a contemporary shower room with underfloor heating and a compact, functional kitchen. Eaves storage and built-in cupboards help maximise space in a property of about 667 sq ft. The property is chain-free with a very long lease and a nominal ground rent.
Buyers should note the maisonette is accessed by a gated external stairwell and has on-street parking only (no allocated space, though there is a right to park in Derby Square). The kitchen is modest in size and some areas under the eaves have restricted head height — the flat offers scope to personalise rather than being a full renovation project.
Overall this is a conveniently situated, characterful flat offering rental and holiday-let potential or a comfortable small home close to shops, cafes, transport links and the Lake District National Park. Practical lease terms and low running costs make it an economical choice, while the position in Windermere keeps lakeside life and local amenities within easy reach.
