Approaching 1 Lynstead, the first impression is one of understated elegance.

The Edwardian property is entered through the original gently curved oak doorway, adorned with intricate stained glass and complemented by external lighting. It welcomes you into the home, and hints at the attention to detail that continues throughout. Many Arts and Crafts design features are original or have been lovingly restored.

Stepping inside, the entrance hall sets a warm tone, with tiled flooring flowing seamlessly into the main living areas. To one side, the original boot room provides space for coats, boots, and the essentials. Every hand-crafted interior oak door feature elegant brass fittings and original diamond motif, creating continuity and charm in every space.

The dining area draws you in with high ceilings through a gracefully curved arch. Hand-made plaster ceiling rose frames the light fittings and a bespoke bookshelf, subtly illuminated, frames one wall, while a marble fireplace provides a warm, central focus.

The large kitchen windows frame panoramic views over the Langdales, allowing the landscape to become a living backdrop to daily life. The fitted kitchen reveals a central island, plentiful cupboards, built in appliances and a charming walk-in pantry style utility room. Pitched ceilings and a thoughtful layout make the kitchen as functional as it is welcoming.

The living room continues the theme of comfort and style with original fine plasterwork on the high ceiling. Windows throughout the space fill the room with natural light, showcasing the surrounding scenery. Bi-fold doors create a seamless connection to the outdoors, while private patio extends the living space, perfect for entertaining or relaxing in peace. A gas-effect log burner set in an imposing oak fire surround adds warmth and ambience.

Bedrooms and bathrooms reveal the same attention to detail. Originally the billiard room, the primary bedroom is a sanctuary, with built-in wardrobes. What was once a grand fireplace is now an attractive alcove for the bed, complete with original bressummer beam.
A beautifully decorated secondary double bedroom, currently used as a reading room, benefits from an en-suite wet room.

The Bathroom combines bath, separate shower, heated towel rail, and illuminated vanity mirror, all complemented by a signature door with diamond motif.

The terrace and wrap around garden, provides opportunity to appreciate the surroundings. The summer house and adjacent spaces are ideal for a BBQ or al fresco dining.
The terraces are perfect for enjoying long summer evenings with a drink as the sun sets over the fells. At the front of the home, a garage complements the driveway, providing practical storage and additional parking.

The garden and external spaces are thoughtfully arranged to create a seamless blend of style, privacy, and functionality.
Situated on Thornbarrow Road, the home offers easy access to either Bowness or Windermere's village amenities, local cafés, and walking paths, while the panoramic vistas across the Langdales serve as a constant reminder of the Lake District's natural beauty. Here, elegance, character, and calm come together, inviting a lifestyle of comfort, sophistication, and enduring charm.

About AshdownJones, The Lakes and Lune Valley

1C Low Cleabarrow Business Centre Windermere Cumbria LA23 3FA

Hey,

Nice to 'meet' you! We're Sam Ashdown and Phil Jones, founders of AshdownJones - a bespoke estate agency specialising in selling unique homes in The Lake District and Lune Valley.

We love a challenge...

Over the last eighteen years we have helped sell over 1000 unique and special homes, all with their very own story to tell, all with their unique challenges.

Our distinctive property marketing services are not right for every home, but those clients we do help consistently sell quicker, and for a higher price.

If you have a unique home in The Lake District or The Dales, lets put some time in the diary to have a chat. Within an hour (or possibly two), you'll have a clear picture of how we could help you sell your home for the price you want, in the timescale you need. You may not be considering selling right now, and that's cool with us, having all the information will help you make the right decisions for you and your families.

After all, the right advice, at the right time, makes all the difference.

Selling property is what most estate agents do; changing people's lives takes longer, but it's what we at AshdownJones do. Moving house will change your life, and we want to be a part of that change, helping you every step of the way.

Let's have a chat over a cup of tea (preferably Yorkshire) and talk about what's best for you.

Sam, Phil and The AJ Team
