Set within the Grade II listed Loughrigg Brow, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment combines high Victorian character with wide panoramic views over Lake Windermere and surrounding fells. The living/dining room’s high ceilings, large window seats and ornate fireplace make it a memorable principal space; both double bedrooms have fitted storage and en suites, supporting comfortable full-time living or a high‑end holiday let.
Owners share approximately ten acres of communal grounds, including woodland and an all‑weather tennis court, while a private garage and driveway space offer secure parking. The apartment benefits from a long lease (circa 974 years), gas central heating and integrated kitchen appliances — a ready-to-use home in a quiet, National Park setting yet a short stroll from Ambleside’s amenities.
Important practical points: the building’s Grade II listed status will restrict external and some internal changes and can complicate works. The annual service charge is above average (circa £6,000) and council tax is in a higher band, so running costs are notable. The estate uses private drainage; recent regulation changes may require future attention or specialist advice.
This property will suit buyers after a character-rich, low-crime lakeside base — as a permanent home, weekend retreat or holiday let. Its combination of strong views, communal grounds and secure parking delivers lifestyle appeal; buyers who require unrestricted renovation or low ongoing charges should factor those constraints in.
