Not one house… but two! This is a very rare opportunity to take ownership of two separate properties, each with fantastic potential for a permanent residence, second home, or lucrative holiday let or long-term let opportunity. Welcome to Cuthbert House and The Bungalow, beautifully set against the beautiful backdrop of Glenridding with stunning lake and fell views. This four-bedroom semi-detached Lakeland slate house, together with a self-contained two-bedroom bungalow, offers exceptionally versatile accommodation for you to do with as you wish!

Nestled on the shores of Ullswater, one of the Lake District’s most beautiful waters, Glenridding has transformed from a traditional lead-mining hamlet into a thriving lakeside destination. A picturesque, fast-flowing stream winds through the village, which is bustling with visitors by day yet wonderfully calm and serene by evening; Glenridding offers the perfect blend of energy and tranquillity.

Cuthbert House is a traditional Lakeland slate semi-detached home which sits proudly looking towards the lake and fabulous fells. This four-bedroom home is a real gem not to be missed!

Coming up the steps to the front door and entering the welcoming hallway, you will find a useful WC. Ahead lies a well-equipped kitchen comprising wall and base units, a Belling hob and oven with extractor above, and a one-and-a-half bowl sink with drainer and mixer tap. The space is finished with a complementary worktop, creating a practical and attractive cooking area.

The sun room provides a bright, relaxing space to enjoy the stunning surrounding views. A practical adjoining utility area features base units with an inset sink and plumbing for a washing machine, offering convenient, functional storage and workspace.

The dining room provides a comfortable space for hosting family and friends, with ample room for a dining suite. Large windows allow you to enjoy the views that you will simply never tire of, bringing the outdoors into everyday dining.

The cosy living room offers the perfect sanctuary to unwind after a day of roaming the surrounding fells, so put your feet up and relax whilst soaking in the pleasant views of the fells and lake. From here you can easily access to the spacious cellar, which provides incredibly useful storage space (though with limited head height). The sitting room next door, which is currently used an another bedroom, enjoys a wood-burning stove set upon a stone hearth, providing a cosy focal point to keep you warm during the winter months.

Stairs lead to the first floor, where you will reach the spacious landing with loft access, four bedrooms, and a house bathroom.

Bedroom one is a comfortable double room, with one window offering stunning lake and fell views to wake up to.

Bedroom two enjoys dual-aspect views over the garden, fells, river, and lake, truly a show-stopper.

Bedroom three is a bright double room with striking fell views and a practical built-in cupboard.

Bedroom four, last but not least, is a double room with delightful views over the garden and surrounding fells.

The family bathroom comprises a three-piece suite, including a bath with a shower over, a vanity unit with a wash hand basin, and a WC.
The bathroom is partly tiled and features a chrome heated towel rail for added comfort.

Cuthbert House enjoys a private garden, mainly laid to lawn and complemented by mature shrubs and trees. The garden attracts a variety of local wildlife, creating a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the surrounding landscape.

Sitting adjacent to Cuthbert House is The Bungalow, a well-appointed two-bedroom bungalow with a private garden and handy parking.

Entering from the front of the property you will come into the spacious hallway, which provides access to the large loft area being partly boarded and with power and light.

Through to the breakfast kitchen, which has a range of wall and base units, an electric hob and oven with extractor over, and a stainless steel sink with drainer and mixer tap. The kitchen enjoys lovely views over the rear garden and the fells beyond, and had plumbing for a washing machine.

The cosy, dual-aspect living room is inviting and practical, featuring useful alcove shelving and a multi-fuel stove set within an attractive surround.

Bedroom one is a double room with wonderful views, and bedroom two, also a double, is a pleasant room, ideal for guests.

The bathroom comprises a three-piece suite with a shower over the bath, a pedestal wash hand basin, and a WC.

To the rear, the property enjoys a lawned garden overlooking the surrounding fells and nearby river, providing a peaceful and private retreat. Off-road parking is available to the side, along with two external stores, one of which houses the oil tank.
