This tranquil home promises a true sanctuary in the heart of the Lake District National Park. It is quite simply an incredible labour of love, blending together design, function and artistry to showcase luxurious open-plan living at its finest!

Zinc House is really a home that promises the best of both worlds - with contemporary and unique fixtures and finishes yet incredibly warm and welcoming. The current owners are both amazing artists, and the home boasts much of their work in both style and extraordinary metalwork.

Instantly, you will be charmed by the attention to detail of the Corten gates that open to reveal the majestic zinc clad façade, that dress the timber frame, as well as 2 handy parking spots. Additionally, there is convenient on street parking that will accommodate friends and family when they visit.

Step into the open-plan living dining and kitchen, cleverly designed to incorporate both cosy seating areas to relax in and a grand dining space to entertain in. A double height ceiling stretches above you complete with two generous skylights allowing natural light to flood the space.

Slide the huge glazed wall panels back to maximise space and allow the home to flow beautifully between indoors and out. Neutral décor gives way to the crisp lines of the handsome black kitchen cabinetry pulling you in and inviting you to sit at the integral island - the cooking space is complete with in-built microwave, oven, dishwasher and fridge freezer in addition to plenty of storage.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a handy study with sliding doors opening to the garden - quite a tranquil spot to work in and be inspired. Storage is in abundance at Zinc House, slide the door, behind the large map décor, to discover a most useful space to hide bits and bobs away.

Return to the living area and admire the textured Corten wall panels, patterned by hand to add texture, interest and a lush richness to the sumptuous seating area as well as a stunning backdrop to the focal staircase that leads upstairs.

Just off the living room find a small utility store as well as separate WC where guests can not only refresh and revive whilst being entertained by the original hand decoupage wall covering.

Ascend the powder coated, black painted steel staircase to the first floor, where you will be greeted with an architectural open landing.

Make your way across the internal bridge landing, finished with hand forged steel metalwork to one side and a glazed Juliette balcony to the other, allowing the space to be infused with the same light and warmth as downstairs. Stop a while and gaze out of the large skylight at the far-reaching views.

Discover the continued use of different decorative techniques and materials in the home's main bathroom, in which Tadelakt plaster completes the space. This Moroccan form of lime-based plaster creates a seamless, waterproof finish to the walls as well as carving out the large bathtub and separate shower. Let the water cascade from the waterfall shower head, waking you up in the morning for a busy working day. Spot the clever use of glazing, hidden behind the door, giving you a glimpse of the natural world beyond.

Retrace your steps to the top of the stairs and enter the spacious double bedroom. A neutral and calming retreat that makes the most of the stunning Lake District scenery, found through the doors to the Juliette balcony. Imagine waking up to the picturesque landscape every day! The room also boasts space for freestanding furniture in addition to ample storage found in the eaves and the built-in wardrobe.

Gardens and grounds

Like the charmingly creative home, the tranquil garden has been cleverly designed with function and originality in mind. Effortless parking, for two cars, can be found to the front of the home and just past the rudbeckia that welcomes you with their waving yellow heads, discover the most stunning suntrap for entertaining and relaxing in.

This pretty Lakeland slate-chipped courtyard, surrounded by blooms of seasonal flowers and shrubs that flow over the side of the burnt orange custom built corten steel planters, forges a warm and secluded haven suitable for all seasons. Open the sliding doors from the home and create a serene extension between the living space and garden - the perfect spot that friends and family can gather for celebrations or simply a weekend BBQ.
