Designed with intention, and built just seven years ago, this exceptional home redefines rural living with modern simplicity, natural warmth, and effortless elegance.

From the moment you arrive, there's a sense of calm. The soft hush of the trees, the seamless blend of architecture with surrounding landscape - everything here feels thoughtfully composed. North House is the last home before the village slips into countryside, giving it a coveted position: connected yet secluded, with views that steal your breath, then offer it back, slower.

Inside, the home unfolds in clean, open-plan layers. Step through the entrance and you're greeted by the comforting crackle of a wood burner, set against a textured feature wall. This is the heart of the main living area - a vast, luminous space on the middle of 3 levels, that blends kitchen, dining and lounging, where oversized windows frame the ever-changing light over the fells.

The kitchen is designed to work as beautifully as it looks. Neff appliances, Quooker tap, and double fridge freezer are seamlessly integrated, and every surface is clean-lined and practical, ready for everything from early morning coffees to evening gatherings. The dining area flows to a large glass balcony with full width bifolds, the perfect spot to drink in the view, or a chilled glass of wine, as the sun melts behind the fells. Warmth radiates underfoot, thanks to air-source powered underfloor heating, which quietly fills each room with ambient comfort. It's a clever, energy-efficient system beneath polished concrete, retaining heat and lending a calm, grounded quality to the home.

Also on this central level, hidden behind a panelled wall and secret door, a generous bedroom looks out to the garden, with private access to the outside. Close by, a modern bathroom filled with natural light offers convenience and comfort.

On the top floor, the principal suite feels like a world of its own. Set back from the lower levels with its own outdoor space, this entire level is dedicated to luxurious living: a dressing area, beautiful en-suite, and a relaxing lounge area create a space to retreat, reflect and wake to spectacular views. Step onto the expansive upper
balcony and take in the full majesty of Ullswater - it's a daily ritual worth savouring.

On the ground floor, a third and generously large double bedroom along with a bathroom, home study, and workroom complete the layout. The workroom, bathed in light, lends itself effortlessly to either creative pursuits or remote working with potential conversion into a further bedroom. The lobby on the ground floor offers an alternative main entrance. Additionally, a full width utility/boot room - practical, with ample storage, belfast sink, washing machine & airing space, with direct outdoor access to a covered log store. With so much flexibility, this home grows with your lifestyle.

Set apart looking over the main home, the beautiful self-contained studio is a triumph of design. Complete with a cosy lounge area with its own log burner, open plan kitchen, bathroom and double bedroom. Whether used as a creative space or a peaceful hideaway, the studio adds a compelling dimension to life at North House.

Encircling the house, the grounds offer both privacy and peace. Mature woodland shields you from the outside world, while carefully positioned balconies and patios invite you to engage with it. There's a sense of gentle separation between zones of the garden - morning coffee at the front, al fresco dining on the balcony in the afternoon, and sunset drinks at the rear.

Woven into the fabric of the landscape, the grounds offer a quiet richness that reveals itself with every step. Owned woodland wraps gently around the home, where wild trees and berry-laced bushes line a private lane shared with just a handful of neighbouring homes. From the upper garden, a vegetable plot catches the morning light, while a barbecue terrace waits below for slow summer evenings. A soft stone patio hugs the house, with each door leading directly outside - a gentle reminder that this home is designed to live with the outdoors. There's a second access point by the studio, and ample parking, giving freedom and flow. Footpaths weave through the woods, inviting you to take in the views from a sunny outcrop overlooking Ullswater. It is a plot that lives and breathes with the seasons, just as a Lake District home should.

North House is perfectly placed on the edge of Glenridding, a beloved Lake District village nestled on the shores of Ullswater. Step outside and you're only minutes from lake walks, paddleboarding adventures, and some of the most picturesque trails in the national park. There's a welcoming pub nearby, local cafés, and a strong sense of community, yet the setting feels deeply private. Access is straightforward from both north and south via the A592, making this a compelling option for those seeking a full-time residence, second home or premium
holiday let.

North House is more than a home. It is a lifestyle, a landscape, and a vision realised. Every detail has been shaped with care. If you are seeking a residence that is contemporary and timeless, then North House awaits.
