4 Stoney Lane, Ambleside, LA22 9AZ

Description Quietly placed just a short stroll from the centre of Ambleside, and giving great access to the surrounding fells, this beautifully extended and improved 5 bedroomed detached residence is the perfect family home, with capacity to work from home, an idyllic holiday let or a peaceful weekend retreat. With everything that The Lake District has to offer right on the doorstep, 4 Stoney Lane enjoys a wonderful cul-de-sac setting with the added benefit of a garage, plenty of driveway parking and level, sunny gardens.

Enter the home through the enclosed porch, with slate flooring and dual aspect windows. There is plenty of room for shoe rack and coat hanger, creating the perfect place to leave wet coats or boots after a day out in the fells. Welcoming you further into the property is the hallway; there is a handy cloak room to one side, with WC, wash hand basin, radiator and extractor fan. The hallway is complete with useful built-in shelving and room under the stairs for a dog bed, so you certainly won't be stuck for storage space!

On the right-hand side you will find the living room, a lovely and bright room enjoying views to the front of the property and fells beyond. The wood burning stove and double radiator will guarantee you'll stay cosy all year round! The room is finished with beautiful parquet flooring, which is continued through the double doors to the dining room. The space easily accommodates a large dining suite, and is semi-open plan with both the kitchen and the sun room; a wonderful combination particularly when entertaining or simply for family get-togethers or holidays.

The sun room is a fantastic extension to the home, with large windows to fill the space with natural light, and access to the rear garden through glazed double doors. Just imagine yourself unwinding here after a day's work, with lovely views over the garden and a glass of something cold in hand... pure bliss! The room enjoys the benefit of underfloor heating for the cooler months.

The kitchen is fitted with attractive wall and base units, with a combination of wood-effect and slate worktops. Thoughtfully designed, the large window overlooks the rear garden, a lovely view to be enjoyed whilst washing up. Any amateur chef will delight in the range of appliances throughout the kitchen, including integrated Siemens four ring gas hob, with Siemens cooker hood over, NEFF electric oven, fridge freezer, and Bosch dishwasher.

The utility room can be accessed from the kitchen, and has space and plumbing for a washing machine. With a range of wall units and built-in shelving, there is plenty of storage space, and the room currently houses the Worcester boiler. An internal door provides access to the garage, and another door leads to the rear patio and garden.

Stairs from the hallway lead up to the first floor, which comprises a spacious and bright landing, five bedrooms (one of which is currently a home office), and family bathroom.

Bedroom one is a large double room, and is currently the primary bedroom of the home, with a large window enjoying views to Wansfell. Bedroom two is another bright double room, with lovely views over the garden and to Loughrigg. The third bedroom is a double room with the same views as bedroom one, to the front of the property and beyond; bedroom four is across the landing, and is another double room with views to Wansfell. Whichever bedroom you choose, you will be spoilt with these fantastic views! There is a hatch for loft access within bedroom two.

The fifth bedroom is currently used as a home office, perfect if you need to have some peace and quiet whilst working from home. The room overlooks the garden, and has plenty of space for shelving and a desk.

The family bathroom is modern and spacious, with Amtico flooring and part-tiled walls, and a three-piece suite comprising bath with Mira shower over, a pedestal wash hand basin, and WC. There is also a ladder style heated towel rail, and a built-in cupboard which houses the water tank.

The property has the benefit of a garage, which can be accessed internally from the utility room, or through the hinged wooden doors. The garage is connected to electricity, with multiple power points, and features built-in shelving; and although it can fit a car, it could be perfect as a workshop or garden storage. There is parking for multiple cars on the well-kept driveway, and space to park on the road if necessary. The property also benefits from an Ohme electric vehicle charger.

To the rear is a sunny, west facing level lawned garden and decked seating area. Adaptable and accommodating, quiet and convenient, this lovely home has it all; so don't waste any time, and come and see it today.
