Now, in our later years, we feel it’s time to pass this special home to a younger family to enjoy. We moved in during our late 30s, hosting weddings and parties in the extensive grounds, once home to horses and now beautifully landscaped. Over time, we’ve reinstated a grass tennis court, added an outdoor covered BBQ area with water and electrics, and planted numerous trees, including pleached Hornbeams, Silver Birches, and a stunning Walnut tree. Our grandsons love practising football on the expansive lawns, and the sunken garden, with its Acers, Hostas, and Magnolias, is a magical space. A hidden fruit cage, mature herbaceous borders, and watering systems further enhance the gardens.The house, designed by renowned architect Frank Tugwell, spans four floors.

The South-facing patio offers breathtaking views of the 3.2 acres down to the river, where we’ve loved watching ships sail past.

Sellers Insight Higher Penstroda has been our home now for several happy years. During our first two or three years, the east and west sections of the building were constructed along with the garage. The original farm house was demolished and all of two bats were moved to their new penthouse accommodation in part of the roof space in the garage. Together we have landscaped the garden which is now thriving with shrubs and plants. It is with great sadness that we find ourselves in a position where leaving our lovely home and returning to family in Sussex, is a must. The surrounding area, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, never ceases to amaze us how the dramatic landscape changes as the seasons move through the year. We have enjoyed the stunning views in all directions, to beyond Bodmin, the rugged coastline of North Cornwall and of course the Moor. The peace and atmospheric conditions of our immediate area will be sorely missed. Our small hamlet of four properties, two very old and two very new, have gelled and blended well. The neighbours have been a pleasure to become acquainted with, and whilst we may not see one another for weeks or even months, it is reassuring to know we are always there to help each other if required. Many times we have visited our nearest village of Blisland, either on foot with the dogs or by car. The village has a thriving community boasting an attractive village green, a super quirky pub, an historic old church and a community run shop. All within walking distance of one another. The Primary school lies in the smaller village of Waterloo. Some of our most enjoyable times have been with visiting family and friends. Times when we have been able to share the joys of our beautiful large family house and garden. When on our own, peace and tranquility abound, moments when we just listen to the sounds of nature. All this we leave behind and hope the owners will be as happy as we've been. Step Inside Constructed primarily using ICF (Insulated Concrete Form), this home achieves an excellent B-rated EPC and occupies the site of a former dwelling, now thoughtfully replaced. The current owners had significant input into the design and have enjoyed living here for the several years. This luxurious three-storey property is expertly positioned to take full advantage of its far-reaching views across Bodmin Moor and the surrounding countryside. Entry begins via a porch leading into a vestibule with sliding doors that open into the main residence. The principal living accommodation is found on the first floor—an open-plan layout that encourages sociability and seamless flow. The premium kitchen, finished in light grey tones, includes sleek cabinetry with tall larder units, a central island with breakfast bar seating, and durable Dekton work surfaces with matching upstands. A Belfast sink, under-cabinet lighting, and a combination of recessed and pendant lights enhance the space. Appliances included in the sale are a Rangemaster electric oven with gas hob and extractor, Neff dishwasher, freestanding fridge, and microwave. The kitchen transitions smoothly into a spacious dining area, while the dual-aspect living space features a high-output wood burner set on a slate and brick hearth. Double sliding doors lead to a spectacular sunroom, offering uninterrupted views over the gardens and moorland, with balconies at either end—ideal for enjoying warm, sunny days. Additional rooms on this floor include a well-appointed office with built-in shelving, a cloakroom/WC, and a utility room finished to the same high standard as the kitchen. The utility comes equipped with a Samsung freezer, Bosch tumble dryer, and Gorenje washing machine. A secondary staircase descends from here to a practical storage room. Bedroom accommodation is split across the second and ground floors. The upper floor features two large double bedrooms with roof and traditional windows, both enjoying stunning views. A shared or optional en suite shower room and WC serves this level. On the ground floor, three generous double bedrooms all benefit from en suite facilities. The principal suite is notably spacious, complete with high-quality built-in furniture, direct access to the garden, and a luxurious en suite bathroom with both bathtub and walk-in shower. A second utility area on the ground floor houses components of the central heating and vacuum systems, and provides access to the plant room. This space contains the main electrical control systems, including the inverter and Tesla Powerwall (13.5 kWh capacity). The home is served by a mechanical ventilation, heat recovery system with exhaust heat pump. The property has solid wood interior doors, and laminated flooring. There is matching sanitaryware (including bidets) throughout the bath and shower rooms. Water and drainage systems are private—eliminating South West Water charges. * Further details regarding the heating system will be available from the owners by arrangement on viewing. Step Outside Approached via motorised security gates with smartphone-connected audio entry, the long private driveway offers extensive parking and turning space. The detached double garage features an electric roller door, power, lighting, a side access door, and a mezzanine level for additional storage. The gardens at Higher Penstroda are a true highlight, lovingly established by the current owners to provide vibrant, year-round colour. With a variety of shrubs, perennials, and young trees, the outdoor space is both tranquil and impressive. A paved and tiled patio occupies the footprint of the former dwelling and serves as a peaceful vantage point to admire the spectacular views. A shed and a pathway lead to the largest of the enclosures, located to the southeast. This gently sloping, securely fenced field is perfect for livestock or equestrian use. Large granite boulders, unearthed during the home’s construction, have been thoughtfully incorporated into the landscape design.

Commanding an elevated setting with superb views of Lake Windermere, this architect designed detached home was built in 1955 in a traditional Lakeland style. When the present owners were looking for a family home in the Lakes in 2013 they set out to create and transform the house into their dream home. With new joinery installed throughout the house in 2014, the property now offers well-proportioned rooms providing a double garage, an ensuite double bedroom with utility space and access to a spacious undercroft. On the first floor there is a lounge with large contemporary balcony off, a dining kitchen with conservatory, a further three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

To see the masts on the yachts gently bob in the breeze on their moorings or sail elegantly past is really rather wonderful, especially if you happen to be sat on the balcony or at the top of the garden at the time. The ribbon of low lying mist on an autumnal morning is a lovely sight to behold with your morning brew as you contemplate the day ahead. Light, bright and contemporary was just what the owners wanted and is undoubtedly what this home is. Internally the house has been given a uniform look with fabulous joinery fitted (bespoke oak staircase, room and cupboard oak doors, skirting boards and architraves) fitted throughout, plus a great use of natural materials with the inclusion of a feature Brazillian slate wall as you head up the staircase plus, rustic oak and bamboo European flooring in most of the rooms. Additionally, modern kitchen and bathroom fittings were installed. Outside, the gardens have been landscaped to provide cleverly positioned seating areas and easy to maintain planting. All in all, Ghyllside is recommended for those seeking contemporary good looks, comfortable living, beautifully maintained gardens, an accessible location and a fantastic view of Lake Windermere. All within 1 acre of grounds. Location Location is paramount when it comes to choosing your perfect property and Ghyllside is fortunate as it not only has an enviable location but enjoys an equally choice setting too. Whilst there are nearby neighbours, there are generous gardens and established planting between the houses ensuring no compromise on privacy. Both Ghyllside and the surrounding gardens enjoy spectacular views of Lake Windermere and the verdant slopes of Claife Heights and the mountains beyond. Almost equidistant between Bowness on Windermere and Newby Bridge, this is an extremely accessible location and convenient to reach either from Newby Bridge (and therefore from the M6) or Windermere direction.

If schooling is a priority, then there are a good selection of primary, state and independent schools in Windermere making this the perfect option for a main family residence.
