Creator: Le Figaro Properties

Nestled in one of the Lake District's most sought-after locations, this detached bungalow presents an exceptional development opportunity to create a truly outstanding home in the heart of Ambleside. Commanding an elevated position, the property enjoys breathtaking panoramic views across the southern Lake District fells and the sparkling waters of Windermere. The ever-changing landscape provides a spectacular backdrop throughout the seasons, with uninterrupted vistas stretching towards Wetherlam, the Old Man of Coniston, High Crag and Black Fell. Whether enjoying a morning coffee as the sun rises over the fells or watching the evening light glimmer across the lake and surrounding peaks, the setting is truly remarkable and one of the property's defining features. Now requiring complete refurbishment and modernisation throughout, the property offers buyers the chance to reimagine and transform the existing accommodation into a stunning contemporary residence tailored to their own tastes and lifestyle. Whether as a permanent home, holiday retreat or investment, the potential here is undeniable. Adding to its appeal, the property benefits from full planning permission, granted in February 2025, for a substantial extension that significantly enhances the existing footprint. To help bring the vision to life, a series of high-quality CGI images have been prepared, illustrating the exciting possibilities for the finished home. These visualizations showcase how the property could be transformed into an elegant, light-filled residence that makes the most of its enviable Lake District setting. Planning Permission Ref: 7/2025/5077. A further benefit for prospective purchasers is that, having been unoccupied for more than two years, the property may qualify for the reduced 5% rate of VAT on eligible renovation and refurbishment works, rather than the standard 20% rate. Although purchasers should check their eligibility and seek advice from their contractor or professional tax adviser regarding the application of the reduced rate to their proposed works. Location
Enjoying an enviable position on the edge of Ambleside, this superb property is ideally located within easy walking distance of the town center, offering convenient access to a wide range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities. Both the popular Force Café and Grove Barn Café are just a short stroll away, providing perfect places to relax and enjoy a coffee or bite to eat after exploring the surrounding fells or spending time in the town. The property is perfectly placed for those who appreciate the outstanding natural beauty of the Lake District, with the renowned Wansfell Pike walk, one of Alfred Wainwright's celebrated Lakeland routes, beginning just above the property. From gentle riverside strolls to more challenging fell walks, an abundance of outdoor pursuits can be enjoyed straight from the doorstep. Step inside
As it stands, the bungalow offers well-proportioned accommodation, providing an excellent foundation for refurbishment and extension. An entrance porch leads into a spacious open-plan living and dining area, with an additional reception room currently used as a formal dining room. These principal living spaces enjoy fabulous views towards the Lakeland fells, creating a wonderful backdrop and highlighting the property's exceptional setting. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units complemented by butcher's block worktops, incorporating a stainless steel sink, a Lamona electric oven with induction hob and an integrated Lamona dishwasher. There is space for a freestanding fridge/freezer, plumbing for a washing machine, and holds the TRO oil-fired boiler. The bungalow currently provides three bedrooms, comprising two generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from built-in wardrobes and storage cupboards, together with a single bedroom that could equally lend itself to use as a home office or study. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath, WC and wash hand basin, complemented by a heated towel rail and fully tiled walls and flooring. To the rear of the property is a practical utility/boot room with an adjoining shower room, providing an ideal space for removing muddy boots and outdoor clothing after enjoying the many walks and outdoor pursuits on the doorstep. Imagine the potential…
Approached via a private driveway, this exceptional contemporary home would immediately impress with its striking new architecture, combining crisp white rendered elevations, natural timber detailing and expansive glazing that would perfectly frame the surrounding countryside. Dry stone walling and thoughtfully landscaped terraces would create a welcoming arrival, while the elevated position would make the most of the far-reaching rural views. Stepping inside, the entrance hall would provide an immediate sense of space and light, drawing the eye through the heart of the home towards the dramatic vaulted living area beyond. The open-plan layout would be carefully designed for modern family living, seamlessly connecting the principal reception spaces while maintaining a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen would form the centrepiece of the home, featuring a substantial central island, sleek contemporary cabinetry and generous worktop space. There would be ample room for everyday family life as well as entertaining, with the dining area positioned to take full advantage of the views through the full-height glazing. Flowing effortlessly from the kitchen, the impressive living room would feature floor-to-ceiling glazing and a striking glazed gable, flooding the space with natural light throughout the day. A feature fireplace could provide a cosy focal point during the winter months, while large sliding doors would open directly onto the terrace, creating a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces. The bedroom accommodation would be thoughtfully arranged to maximise privacy and outlook. The principal suite could feature a spectacular glazed gable, capturing uninterrupted countryside views and offering the opportunity to wake each morning to the ever-changing landscape beyond. There would also be ample space for a seating area, together with the potential for a luxurious en-suite bathroom and fitted dressing area. The additional bedrooms would all be generously proportioned, benefiting from excellent natural light and attractive outlooks, making them equally well suited to family members or visiting guests. Contemporary bathrooms would be designed to complement the clean architectural style, combining elegant finishes with practical layouts throughout. Step outside
Currently, the property is approached via an off-road parking space and access to a detached single garage.

House Ambleside (United Kingdom)

An utterly delightful country house; sat in established and professionally landscaped gardens and commanding wonderful views of Loughrigg and the Fairfield Horseshoe, Swallows House is full of period charm, has generously proportioned rooms and a layout suited to family life and socialising with friends. The picturesque hamlet location is quiet and peaceful, yet centrally positioned in the Lake District National Park, with Ambleside, Hawkshead, Skelwith Bridge and the Langdales all readily accessible. Dating from the 1600s, the house has been extended and updated since 2001 and now offers a hall, highly practical boot room, dining kitchen, a formal and atmospheric dining room, a generous and welcoming main sitting room and a study with garden and fell views. A door leads from the kitchen to the newer part of the house, a sizeable extension added in 2004. With a more contemporary aesthetic, this part of the house is immensely flexible and can be used as an annex for a dependent family member or for longer stay guests or incorporated into the main living space and occupied as one – on offer is a living room, fifth double bedroom (currently used as a games room), ensuite shower room and a utility room with potential to be upgraded to a kitchenette. Back to the original, period property and an airy set of stairs leads up to the first floor with a cloakroom on the half landing. Off the spacious main landing is the principal ensuite bedroom, three further double bedrooms and a house bathroom. Swallows House will doubtless appeal to those looking to make the Lake District their main residence and to buyers seeking an escape, a private slice of heaven for taking a much-needed break when diaries permit. It will also appeal to parties looking to create a bolt hole but share it with others and let it commercially - the present owners offer it to guests through Wheelwrights Holiday Cottages. As such, most of the contents are included in the sale, enabling new owners to transition smoothly and continue the business. For purchases not looking to let, the contents will be useful as you become established, before putting your own stamp on this lovely property. Location Rural, but not isolated, this is a tranquil country location with fabulous uninterrupted views across the valley to the verdant slopes of neighbouring Loughrigg and Fairfield Horseshoe beyond. This picturesque hamlet-setting benefits from being deeply embedded in the very centre of the Lake District, adjacent to the Langdale Valley, with country and fell walks aplenty from the doorstep. There are many iconic Lakeland villages within a ten miles radius; perfect to dip into when you want shops, a break from kitchen duties (there are also a few places to enjoy a meal out within walking distance including the Drunken Duck) or to see a bit of Lakeland-life. And equally a wonderful place to get away from it all and embrace the calm and stillness that this setting offers. Day-to-day needs are met by local shops and amenities in the nearby villages of Ambleside, Elterwater and Hawkshead, with a branch of regional supermarket Booths in Windermere; and of course these days, most of the major supermarkets also deliver to the property. Whether you want the Lake District for rest and relaxation, for quiet contemplation and inspiration, or for exertion and exhilaration there is something here for everyone. Striding out on the fells, cycling the lanes, wild swimming or simply pottering around the shops and sampling the tea and cake on offer, for generations that have been, for generations that currently are and no doubt for generations to come, the Lake District has it all – there is nowhere quite like it. Step Inside Cross the threshold into the flagged hall and there’s a practical boot room for your outdoor kit. The kitchen has extensive cabinets and space for a table, ideal for breakfast and informal suppers. The atmospheric dining room is deeply charismatic and will make a delightful venue for gathering family and friends for candlelit dinners and Sunday lunches after building an appetite on long fell and lake-side walks. There’s an air of grandeur here, with a deep bay window and open fireplace with twin arched alcoves either side. The large sitting room is an impressive room with a high beamed ceiling and generous proportions commanding super fell views from the deep floor-to-ceiling bay window; this accommodates a second smaller seating arrangement, just the spot for watching the birds in the garden. The main seating area is around the open fireplace and a glazed door connects to the garden. Off the sitting room is a study, the view of Loughrigg will either prove inspirational or distracting as you work! From the sitting room an arched recess marks the foot of the wide staircase to the first floor, off the half landing is a cloakroom. The airy stairwell is flooded with natural light from the large skylight overhead and opens to a generous landing. The principal bedroom suite is a large bedroom with fabulous fell views to wake up to (including the Langdale Pikes), while the ensuite bathroom has a five-piece suite. Three further double bedrooms (generously proportioned to the extent two could be sub-divided), each enjoy splendid views and share the house bathroom. Throughout the house, sanitaryware is mainly Villeroy and Boch. A door from the kitchen connects the old part of the house to the extension which incorporated some of the original walls of the original farmhouse. This is a versatile addition which could be occupied all as one with the main house or used as a self-contained suite for guests or dependent family. It provides you with a sitting room, a fifth double bedroom/games room with an ensuite shower room, and a utility room which could be upgraded to a small kitchenette. Swallows House is a charismatic period property with a sizeable extension that adds a great degree of flexibility to living here. It works well as a permanent or second home but has also proved a popular holiday-let for larger family house parties keen to spend time together or celebrate a landmark occasion. Step Outside Pull in off the lane and a generous driveway parking area is in front of the detached single garage, with a convenient electric car charger installed. There is ready access to both the main front door and the door into the second sitting room. The quintessential landscaped garden is well stocked and a variety of established shrubs are kept neatly trimmed and provide seasonal colour and variation. Lawns and paths weave around the garden to three seating terraces, all laid with traditional Lakeland stone paving and individually positioned to capture a different outlook or the sun as it moves around the garden during the day, finishing on the ‘gin and nibbles’ terrace in the evening. Services Mains electricity and water. Drainage to a water treatment plant (installed in 2023 and shared between three properties) located in an adjacent field.

ACCOMMODATION Originally built in 1906 as a gentleman’s country retreat, Ravenoaks is a beautifully restored semi-detached Lakeland residence, quietly positioned in the heart of the Ullswater Valley between Pooley Bridge and Glenridding. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful home in excellent condition, meticulously and lovingly renovated by the current owners, and set in 11 acres of spectacular private land. Properties of this calibre and setting seldom come to the market, combining architectural charm, immaculate interiors, and an idyllic location. Influenced heavily by the Arts & Crafts movement, the house is constructed from local stone and retains many original features. The ground floor in particular showcases striking examples of oak panelling, decorative mouldings, and period fireplaces, hallmarks of the era’s distinctive style. From the private parking area, the front vestibule welcomes you with original leaded and stained glass set in oak frames. This opens into a generous reception hallway with an elegant staircase rising to the first floor. Off the hallway is the dining hall, known for hosting numerous family celebrations, especially atmospheric when lit by candles at Christmas. This impressive room connects the two main reception rooms. To the left lies the living room, an elegant, cosy space that perfectly displays the property’s Arts & Crafts heritage, complete with a period fireplace housing a Clearview wood burning stove.

UPSTAIRS The impressive period staircase with its balustrade and panelling leads to a generous landing. There are five spacious bedrooms and four bathrooms on this floor.
