A truly contemporary, luxurious property lying on the shores of England’s largest lake, Lakeside at Louper Weir is a delightful detached house offering a unique escape to Windermere. Whether you are bringing your family together to make happy holiday memories for years to come, or gathering your friends for a reunion you won’t forget, this architectural masterpiece will serve as a haven for you all.
Once you have come through the electric gates and down the drive, head in through the front door and into the large kitchen and dining space, holding magnificent views across Lake Windermere, a bespoke handmade kitchen with quartz and granite worktops, equipped with the highest standard of appliances that you could need. The chefs of the group will love getting creative in this space and you can keep them company and supervise with a glass of wine sat at the breakfast bar.
Move things over to the dining table, all the while watching the sun go down in the background through the floor to ceiling glazed windows, bringing the outside in. After a day of walking has tired you out, you can look forward to watching a film on the cinema style TV with Sonos sound system in the stylish sitting room, featuring designer sofas in sky blue and beautiful dark wood flooring. When you want a quiet moment, somewhere to take up a good book or just read the papers in the afternoon, there is the snug which has a leather sofa and a Smart TV.
When you are ready to head to bed, you will have four stunning bedrooms to choose from, all super-king rooms with en-suites; three with views of the lake and one with a view to the garden. Of these, the master bedroom on the south west corner of the property is really something special, with bi-fold doors that open onto a private balcony wrapping around the corner of the building where you can enjoy an early morning cuppa and watch the world go by.
Bi-fold floor to ceiling patio doors in the kitchen and dining space open onto the patio area where you can enjoy some alfresco dining or indulge in a soak in the hot tub with a cold drink in hand.
Flanked by ancient woodland where the owners have created a haven for wildlife and kept landscaping to a minimum, the garden sweeps down to the lakeshore benefiting from its own private jetty mooring (boats can only be launched from Bowness-on-Windermere, not from the house), and a small beach overlooked by the large covered outdoor dining area.
Bowness-on-Windermere is a pretty Lakeland village with a wealth to explore, you can hire a row boat or take a cruise on one of the steamers to see the shores from the water, while the Windermere Lake Cruises that depart regularly to Ambleside and Lakeside provide a spectacular way to explore with no need of a car. The opportunities for walking are endless in this part of the world so whether it’s a leisurely amble or a hardcore hike, there is something to suit all abilities. Lakeside at Louper Weir was built to impress and you will come away from this magnificent property deciding when to book it next.
