With its generous grounds, soul-stirring views and a character-rich interior, this is a house with stories to tell, and space to create your own.
Behind its handsome stone façade and through a beautiful front door lies a home designed to delight. Light pours into the living room through shuttered windows, dancing across stone floors and up to exposed beams above. A log burner sits proudly within an original fireplace, setting the tone for a home that balances elegance with comfort. Subtle nods to its Georgian roots, from the high ceilings to the iron cast radiators, are thoughtfully married with playful and characterful touches, creating a living space that feels warm, welcoming and deeply personal.
The home flows with ease. A charming dining nook within the open plan living room offers intimate space for conversation, backed by a built-in bookcase filled with old-style volumes, all of which are to remain. From here, a second reception area presents the flexibility for more formal dining, or simply a change of scene by the fire. Then you enter the light and airy kitchen overlooking the rolling countryside, where the practical meets the picturesque. Picture yourself preparing a simple supper here, the fields beyond your window turning golden in the last light of the day.
Beyond, the sunroom invites you to slow down. Framed by timber beams and surrounded by views of the countryside, it feels bright and calming - a space to read, write, socialise, or simply be. This room leads out to the gardens and the woodland beyond, inviting exploration or quiet contemplation.
For those seeking further inspiration, Woodside offers extraordinary versatility. Two of the five bedrooms are currently arranged as successful holiday lets. Each with their own character, one features its own private entrance and en-suite, allowing complete independence for guests or multigenerational living. The other, reached by its own staircase, is a beautifully appointed suite offering a serene retreat.
Back within the main house, the remaining bedrooms are equally evocative. The principal bedroom gazes over the gardens, while others offer their own unique charms, be it access to a fully boarded and panelled loft room, or the allure of window seats perfectly placed for moments of stillness. The bathrooms are impeccably finished, with the main bathroom showcasing a freestanding tub and black-and-white tiled floor, with a sash window seat framing the garden where you can enjoy the last rays of the sun while pampering.
Step outside, and Woodside reveals its final surprise. One acre of grounds surrounds the house, rising gently into a woodland dell where stone steps trace a path through the trees. A raised seating area offers a place to watch the sun dip behind the fells, while lower down, a generous garage and log store speak to the practicalities of country life.
Woodside's location in the village of Ings places you within easy reach of both nature and connection. Windermere and Kendal are minutes away, with their boutiques, schools and rail links. Cycling and dog walking routes abound, from the Kentmere Valley to Ullswater's shores. The bus route runs conveniently nearby, yet within the gates of Woodside, the world slows to a quieter rhythm.
This is a home with character in abundance and potential to match. Whether as a private sanctuary, a creative retreat, or a dual-purpose residence with income potential, Woodside offers a rare combination: beauty, privacy, and possibility, all in one unforgettable setting.
