Dating from the 1970s and owned by just one family since its creation, this light filled home presents the perfect opportunity to create an ideal abode in the heart of the Lake District.

Tucked away down a quiet, leafy lane, with large rooms and generous gardens, Briar Trees is waiting for that personal touch to unlock its full potential and create the ideal modern family home.

The home was ideal for bringing up 3 children away from but so close to the village and lake.

Hidden Gem
Wend your way down the lane beside the laurel hedging that offers privacy and adds to the lush greenery that surrounds Briars Trees. The large rhododendron at the top of the bank on the west side of the garden is magnificent of red flowers in spring. Pull up on the drive beside the double garage, where there is ample room to park up to five cars. Beautifully proportioned, with wrap around gardens, make your way to the home and step inside to a wide hallway.

The open staircase to your left invites you to explore the upper floor, but first, turn into the large living area.

Endless Potential
Light streams in from the sliding doors that lead to the patio area and garden beyond, extending the room and making the transition from inside to outside effortless. With dual aspect windows showcasing the gardens outside, the room holds a light and airy ambience.

An open fire sits in the unique fireplace, ready to be lit on cooler evenings and with plenty of space for sofas and chairs, this is a room that easily lends itself to an array of uses.

Next door, discover the dining room. Bookshelves line the wall, giving a cosy and intimate feel. Set up a table and chairs beside the sliding doors that open onto the garden, and watch the wildlife whilst enjoying family mealtimes. In summer, open them up to dine alfresco, or invite friends over for get togethers and celebrations.

Unlock the Possibilities
Step into the kitchen, conveniently accessible through a second entrance by the side of the house, near the garage. This provides the perfect entry point after a day of exploring the Lake District fells, offering an easy way to return home.

Quarry tiles underfoot make light work of any muddy paws or boots, and a large window lets in plenty of natural light.

Currently fitted with a kitchen typical of the era in which the home was created, the room is filled with potential, ready for a modern transformation to suit your culinary needs. With ample space to redesign and reimagine the room, this blank canvas offers a brilliant foundation with endless possibilities.

Pop into the downstairs cloakroom, comprising a WC and wash basin, before making your way to the upper floor.

Room to Grow
At the top of the landing, a picture window floods the area in natural light and displays the views outside. Surprisingly spacious, the landing area leads to four bedrooms, three of which are double, and all with lots of light and ready to make your own. Whether you envisage vibrant, modern living spaces or cosy retreats for relaxation, the simple layout and great proportions of the upper floor hold endless potential.

The family bathroom is at the end of the landing, featuring a bath and wash basin, and next door is a separate WC that can be easily modernised. Imagine a spa like bathroom completely bespoke to your personal taste and customised to your family s needs.

Gardens and Grounds
Private parking for at least five cars can be found on the parking area in front of the house and beside the garage. Fitted with power, the garage offers additional parking or storage space to keep all gardening and sporting equipment safely organised.

With plenty of space to enjoy, offering a private haven from the hustle and bustle, the wrap around gardens to Briar Trees are filled with the same potential as the indoors.
Enhance the entrance by arranging potted plants beside the door, creating a vibrant atmosphere. The sloped lawn in contrast to the level lawn around the house also offers versatility whether you choose to transform it with elegant steps and landscaping, or leave it as it is, embracing its natural charm. Either way, the outdoor space, flanked by tall trees, provides a secluded haven perfect for entertaining and relaxing.

With access to the home via the sliding doors that lead into the living and dining areas, blur the boundaries of inside and outside in the summer months. Dine alfresco on the patio, and host barbeques for family and friends. Play all sorts of ball games and frisbee on the lawn area, and let canine companions enjoy the space. The solid wooden swings are ideal for children.

Soak up the sunshine that greets the garden in the late morning, and spot the wildlife that includes deer, badgers, rabbits and plenty of birds including pheasants.
