We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A detached bungalow situated in a sought after area of Ambleside, one of the Lake District’s most desirable locations.
Ambleside offers a vibrant village atmosphere with a wide range of independent shops, cafés and restaurants, well regarded schools, and excellent transport links.
Surrounded by beautiful fells and scenic walks, and within easy reach of Lake Windermere, the area remains consistently popular with both permanent residents and second home owners.
This property is in a prime Ambleside setting, offering an excellent opportunity to update and create a home tailored to individual requirements.
Inside, the lounge and kitchen are positioned next to one another. The lounge is a generous reception room with a pleasant outlook and plenty of natural light.
The kitchen is fitted with older style units and provides ample space for redesign to create a contemporary kitchen to suit modern living. There are three double bedrooms, all comfortable in size.
The bathroom is fitted with a dated suite, and there is a separate WC for added convenience.
The property offers well proportioned accommodation with excellent potential for modernisation and personalisation.
Outside, the gardens are mainly laid to established shrubs and bushes, with a nice open view beyond, although not of the lake.
The driveway leads to the garage and there is a useful utility area providing additional storage and practicality.
Driveway parking is available for approximately three vehicles, in addition to a garage, and the bungalow sits within established gardens.
Please note: The property suffered from a burst pipe back in January 2026 which has led to the collapse of the ceilings in some rooms.
The burst pipe has now been fixed but the remedial works will not be carried out as the property does require modernisation. EPC Rating: D Location From Lake Road in Ambleside, turn onto Low Gale.
