Stonecroft Elleray, Windermere, LA23 1AW

Located within a desirable area of Windermere and positioned on the footpath leading to Orrest Head, the iconic viewpoint that first inspired Alfred Wainwright’s love of the Lake District, this charming traditional Lakeland slate built home enjoys a truly special setting.

Formerly part of the historic Orrest Head estate, the property combines character, history and privacy whilst remaining within easy reach of the village centre, train station and local amenities.

Set away from the road at the end of a private driveway and enjoying an elevated position, the property benefits from attractive views towards Lake Windermere together with a wonderfully peaceful setting where the surrounding gardens, mature planting and lack of passing traffic create a sense of seclusion rarely found so close to the heart of Windermere.

Having been lovingly owned for many years, this attractive Edwardian home offers spacious and characterful accommodation throughout.

The ground floor includes a welcoming entrance area leading through to the dining space, creating a sociable and practical layout for everyday living.

The dining room also benefits from a lovely additional seating area, ideal as a quieter space to relax away from the main lounge and kitchen whilst enjoying the evening sun.

The lounge is particularly spacious and features an open fire, creating a warm and comfortable focal point within the room.

The fitted kitchen offers good storage and workspace together with a useful pantry cupboard beneath the stairs, while a ground floor shower room adds further flexibility and convenience to the accommodation.

To the first floor, the property offers two generous double bedrooms together with a versatile single bedroom which could equally suit use as a home office or hobby room.

The family bathroom serves the first floor accommodation, while the elevated position of the property allows for pleasant outlooks towards the surrounding area and glimpses of Lake Windermere.

Externally, the property enjoys beautifully planted mature gardens providing a variety of outdoor seating areas together with lawned and artificial grass sections ideal for relaxing and entertaining.

One of the property’s most special features is the private gate giving direct access onto the Orrest Head walking route, allowing you to reach the famous viewpoint within around 15 minutes on foot.
