Within walking distance, you will find the busy streets of Ambleside, with many shops, restaurants, a school, a church, recreational activities, and all your daily necessities. Yet tucked away in just under two-thirds of an acre is a home to suit a young family, a couple, or simply someone who loves the outdoors.

Low Sweden How wraps you in a comforting warmth from the start. Wrapped in nature, the driveway draws you down to the home that seems hidden away, keeping its impressive elevated outlook and character-filled rooms a secret until you explore internally.

From the lane, drive down the driveway, passing the additional parking spot, to the pretty white rendered façade. There's plenty of parking for 3 cars and handy access to the side of the home, ideal for taking your new stock of plants around to the shed and garden.
Spot the vibrant reds of the rhododendrons as you step into the home's large entryway. The soft, neutral carpet and décor, combined with the above-average ceiling height, make for a welcoming and homely space.

Take the first right into the dining room - bright and airy with characterful, elegant painted beams that glisten in the sunlight streaming in from the large window with views of Wansfell. Imagine family Christmases and cosy candlelit dinner parties
Continue into a flexible room, currently used as an office, peacefully set away from the hub of the home, creating a peaceful working environment.

Retrace your steps into the hallway and flow through to the kitchen - functional and homely. Filled with crisp white upper and lower cabinetry, ideal for all your cooking essentials, contrasts beautifully with the black granite worktop and focal black dual fuel Rangemaster, ensuring a timeless elegance. Spend relaxing breakfasts and midweek dinners at the central table for 4.

Washing up at the Belfast sink, with dual aspect windows capturing the views and 2 Velux windows allowing sunlight to fill the space, this is a kitchen to spend time in. Spy the summerhouse from the kitchen window, a quiet space for all seasons complete with heating and lighting.

Looking for even more space pop your head into the adjacent utility room with fantastic storage potential as well as zones for washer and dryer. Step out through the rear door, taking the side path around the property for easy access to the gardens.
As you make your way along the hallway, note numerous cupboards providing generous storage and also a walk-in cloakroom, keeping the home effortlessly tidy.
 
Step into the adjacent dual-aspect living room - light-filled from the large sliding doors, extending your living space onto the south-facing terrace. Spend quiet evenings enjoying a glass of wine, watching the sun go down beyond the captivating views.
Functional and stylish, this large room is naturally divided, creating a versatile space with a cosy seating area set around the decorative flame gas fire, and on the other side of the room is a quiet sitting area. Enjoy a good book, have pre-dinner drinks with friends, or set up a zone for the children with storage for toys and games.

Move down the hall, pop your head into the family bathroom complete with a shower over bath, basin, WC, heated towel rail, and underfloor heating. Hide away toiletries and towels in the built-in storage.

Hang up and fold away clothing in the wardrobes and chests of drawers of the two good-sized bedrooms that follow. Light and bright with pretty views, promising a peaceful night's sleep.
Retreat to the end of the corridor where the master suite lies. Complete with the same picture-perfect views and entry onto the terrace as the living room, it benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room.

Gardens and Grounds
Low Sweden How's charm extends outside into the three-quarters of an acre of land. A garden that truly encompasses the needs of the whole family. Children can play in the meadow or build dens in the small wood whilst parents sit and catch up with friends on the terrace.

The patio terrace stretches along the rear of the home, promising the perfect spot for entertaining and hosting, next to the vibrant colours in the potted plants. Far-reaching views extend over the treeline to the fells, like an ever-changing postcard of the Lake District seasons.

Wend your way down from the terrace, under the arch of the hedge, down the steps through the wrought iron gate into the completely tranquil, slightly sloping meadow area hidden from sight, surrounded by a spectacular sea of mature evergreens, Scots Pines, and attractive seasonal floral displays. The Rhododendrons are quite something!

Take the sweeping path to the bottom of the meadow, where you will find handy access to Ambleside via a gate onto Nook Lane. Popping to the shops is effortless.

There's plenty of space for a vegetable patch where you can spend weekends tending to it before putting your feet up and enjoying a refreshing drink on the patio.

Return through the hedge of your secret haven and make your way along the gravel path into the woodland - a perfect blend of biodiversity, sustainability, and adventure. Wander through the shaded tranquillity that towers above the swaying bluebells to an elevated seating area promising a moment of solitude and reflection. Note the shed with plenty of storage.

Low Sweden How is the ideal base for those wanting a peaceful haven close to a thriving community - it's a must-visit!

Out and about

From the home itself, discover convenient walking access into Ambleside where families are well served with a nursery and a good primary school, mini supermarkets, excellent bars and restaurants, a playground, beautiful walks and waterfalls, miniature golf, a gym, and a church with an excellent community hall, providing a range of events and activities for the whole family.
Ambleside has become a foodie hub with excellent eateries, including Michelin-starred restaurants that encompass incredible locally sourced food with an unforgettable experience.

Leave the car at home and take the 555 bus from the centre of the town, either towards Windermere or north through Grasmere up to Keswick. The route passes over Dunmail Raise, where you can disembark and venture into the fells, perhaps taking on the well-known Lion and the Lamb or Helvellyn - not for the faint of heart. Continue up to Keswick, where you will find pretty streets and a market square lined with restaurants, bars, and shops. Pop into The Square Orange Café for pizza and tapas after an indoor climb in the Kong Adventure Centre.
