Shirley, Rose Cottage Lane, Windermere, Cumbria, LA23 1BE

Description: Discover the potential of this unique investment on a generous plot of land that promises endless possibilities. Situated in the outskirts of Windermere Village but within walking distance of amenities, the plot offers ample space to design a dream residence. With valid planning permission to knock down and rebuild as a 2 story, 4 bedroomed house.  

Location: Situated in a most convenient, select area on the outskirts of Windermere village yet within walking distance of the village shops and amenities. From Windermere, proceed along the A591 towards Ambleside.

Shirley can be found towards the end of the lane on the right.  

Property Overview: A current bungalow on a generous plot of land, situated close to the sought-after location of Windermere Village. Presenting a rare opportunity for those with a vision to knock down and rebuild, crafting a bespoke home tailored to personal tastes and modern standards. Planning permission for a proposed new dwelling was granted back in February 2019 and is still valid as the development had been started by taking away the garage within the 3 year time limit. Crucially as this permission is to replace an existing dwelling it allows for a "new build" house without any occupancy restrictions.

The great plot comes with a garden to the rear, driveway parking to the front and potential for another parking place to the side of the bungalow. The surrounding area is a quiet and convenient location, making it an ideal setting for families with local amenities, schools, and transport links easily accessible.

Seize this exceptional opportunity to build a future in a location that offers both potential and promise.
