Replete with its own golf course, leisure complex, swimming pool, private woodland and stunning riverside views, No. 6, Dockernook, set on the site of an 18th century papermill in Burneside, is easily reached from junction 36 of the M6.

Hugging the crook of the River Kent, pull up through the secure iron gated entrance and arrive home to a bubble of seclusion and serenity. Park up (two dedicated spaces are available in the sheltered garage) and take the lift up to the top floor.

The main entrance for No. 6 is located directly opposite the lift, convenient when arriving home laden with luggage. A homely feel instantly pervades, entering into the broad hall, where a handy cupboard and downstairs cloakroom with wash basin and WC are available.

Two spacious levels of bedrooms, kitchens and entertaining areas present themselves at No. 6, Dockernook, creating a home perfect for multigenerational living; a home where extended family can come together (without getting under one another's feet).

On this lower level, make your way to the open-plan living area at the end of the hallway, through a set of double doors.

Comfortably carpeted throughout, the neutral décor allows artwork and personal touches to infuse the home with personality. Pull up a stool at the bar, tucked to the right, and toast the beginning of a weekend of relaxation. Built-in cabinetry provides ample space for your spirit collection.

Configure this capacious entertaining area to your preference; natural zones offer up dining areas and pockets of privacy to create a reading corner and lavish lounge area. Enormous windows and glazed doors frame views out to the balcony and mill pond below. Beyond, the outline of fells and the running waters of the River Kent enhance the scene; enjoyed at their best from the covered balcony with glass in hand.

Light and classic in its styling, within the crisp white units of the kitchen discover an array of integrated appliances including a fridge-freezer, cooker, washer-dryer and dishwasher. Tiled underfoot and with views out to the grounds and river from the window above the sink, there is ample preparation space on the worktops.

Next door to the kitchen, a large and light double bedroom overlooks the river and millpond. Furnished with its own substantial ensuite - containing bath, separate shower, wash basin and WC - this room could also serve as a handy study for those who wish to work remotely. Served ably by broadband, connect with your business remotely in the refuge of No. 6 Dockernook's secluded surrounds.

Returning along the hallway, the master bedroom is nestled away from the main entertaining area. A bountiful bedroom bathed in light, windows to two sides frame views to different Lakeland scenes. With ample space for its own dressing area, built-in wardrobes and walk-in airing cupboard, the master is also served by its own private ensuite, equipped with contemporary-style furnishings. Freshen up in the walk-in shower which features alongside a white heated towel rail, WC and wash basin.

Take the stairs from the entrance hall up to the penthouse level, stepping through the second door on the right and into the wow factor entertaining area.

Games room, hobby room, living room, dining room; this substantial space embodies the benefits of several rooms in one. Currently furnished with a pool table, this room is the perfect party zone.

Tucked privately away from the main entertaining space and kitchen is this upper level's master bedroom. A spacious and light room overlooking the river, it is served by an ensuite with bath, WC and wash basin, alongside a dressing room accessed through double doors, which could also serve as a nursery.

Next to the stairs, a single bedroom offers additional sleeping space for guests or grandchildren, with the versatility to act as a study or store room should you prefer.

Facilities and Grounds:
With 47 acres of private grounds and bluebell dappled woodlands to explore, leave the car parked up for the week and enjoy the restorative delights of your rural refuge at Cowan Head.

Take the dog for a walk around the well-maintained nine-hole golf course (which doubles as an 18-hole course). A circular, dedicated walk, it drops down along the River Kent; a rewarding stroll come rain or shine.

Holiday letting at Cowan Head is prohibited, providing peace of mind. With a mixture of permanent residents and second home owners, there is a friendly, familiar feel to life at Dockernook. Residents work together to decorate the development at Christmas time.

For families, the most thrilling draw to life at Dockernook is the leisure complex facilities, which include a heated indoor swimming pool, steam room, sauna, relaxation area and changing rooms.
