Step onto the tiled flooring that extends throughout and take the first right to freshen up in the cloakroom, comprising WC and washbasin, before discovering the utility room next door. Home to the washing machine featuring sink, countertops, and cabinetry for storage, attend to laundry and household tasks with ease and efficiency.

Continue ahead to the boot room, where another access point to the home provides a warm welcome after escapades outdoors. Store muddy boots, jackets and umbrellas in the storage areas provided, before retracing your steps to the hallway and turning right into the open-plan kitchen and living space, where the 'wow-factor' is delivered.

Utterly captivating, jaw-dropping views are displayed from the floor to ceiling sliding doors that lead out to the wraparound balcony. The majestic Coniston fells, stretching gracefully across to Crinkle Crags and the Langdales, provide a backdrop to the room and serve as a private gallery, ready to be enjoyed every time you enter the space.

A perfect blend of modern comfort and natural beauty, slide back the doors to fill the room with fresh air and extend the space. Seamlessly transition between inside and out, taking full advantage of the surrounding scenery.

Take a seat at the large central island in the kitchen, and chat with the chef as you soak up those views and sip from a glass of fizz. With sleek, handless cabinetry fitted by Atlantis Kitchens, integrated appliances include Neff double oven and microwave, fridge, freezer, induction hob and worktop extractor unit.

Flow through to the dining area and pull out a chair at the table, perfectly situated to take in those spectacular views and effortlessly move outdoors. Invite friends and family to enjoy the space, and host dinner parties where after-dinner drinks are served under the stars.

Relax in the living area on cooler days and watch the ever-changing sky as you snuggle up to enjoy movies and play games in the ample space. Flexible and versatile, flooded in light and with a wraparound balcony extending the space, this wonderful room is a haven for relaxation, entertainment, and endless possibilities.

Return to the hallway and discover the principal suite on the right where a dressing area greets you with ample storage. Refresh and revive in the spa-like en-suite on the left, featuring wall to ceiling tiles and comprising WC, large walk-in shower, heated towel rail and washbasin with storage.
Make your way into the bedroom, bathed in natural light from the two windows that display serene views of the lake and garden. A perfect blend of functionality and relaxation, with ample room for storage and in which to relax, it's a haven of comfort and calm.

Retrace your steps back into the hallway and descend the stairs to the lower floor. Step into the sleek and contemporary family bathroom on the right, with wall-to-wall tiles and featuring a spacious walk-in shower, WC, washbasin with storage, heated towel rails, and bath.

Make your way into the large room next door, with French doors providing access to the outside patio. Currently used as an office and gym, the space lends itself to a multitude of possibilities. Return to the hallway where two further bedrooms await. Both spacious and bright, with plenty of room for storage and seating, each offering the perfect setting for restful nights and tranquil mornings.

Peep into the under-stairs cupboard that provides storage and cleverly housing the integrated AV system that runs throughout the house, eliminating the clutter of wires or boxes typically associated with streaming services.

Nestled within the grounds of Broadgate, Ivy Cottage is a charming self-contained annexe developed in 2017. Offering accessibility-friendly accommodation, with an open-plan design, step inside to a bright and airy kitchen and dining area.

With plenty of cabinetry and countertop space, take a seat at the table to enjoy meals in the south-facing room as the chef prepares meals. Flow through to the sitting room, complete with dedicated workspace, and admire the views on display before making your way into the conservatory.

Savour after-dinner drinks at the bistro-style dining area overlooking the gardens, then retreat to the super king-sized bedroom, featuring an adjoining dressing area and access to a Jack-and-Jill shower room, accessible from both the bedroom and sitting room. Ascend the stairs to find an additional en-suite bedroom, ready for a blissful night's slumber.

Perfect for visiting guests, multigenerational families or as an extra source of income, Ivy Cottage provides flexible accommodation options to suit a variety of lifestyles.

A perfect blend of lush lawns and tranquil woodland, the two acres surrounding Broadgate offers plenty of areas to explore.

Pull up on the private driveway where a small outbuilding is fitted with power and ready to keep all gardening equipment safely organised. Take the steps down to a lawned area that leads into the expansive woodland, where native trees, shrubs and hedging encourage plenty of wildlife.

Sit out on the patio area at the back of the home with your morning coffee or invite friends around for barbeques to dine outdoors in your own private hideaway. Steps lead down to a spacious lawn, ready for family games and picnics, and discover the greenhouse, inviting you to cultivate your own garden-to-table delights. Another outbuilding can be found toward the back of the house, also fitted with power and currently used as a workshop.

With the wraparound balcony on the upper floor, ready for dining alfresco, the thoughtful landscaping, and expansive grounds providing ample opportunities for leisure and cultivation, the outside space to Broadgate is as captivating as the inside
