GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Dales & Shires - Estate Agents - are very pleased to offer for sale this superb duplex home, of grand proportions, with outbuildings and extensive gardens & grounds. Bannel Head is a handsome late Victorian country house (circa 1900) and this opulent property retains the main entrance and staircase, as well as abundant period features and charm. Conveniently located just within the Lake District, between Kendal and Windermere, this is an ideal home or holiday retreat. Having been much loved and thoroughly renovated by the current owner to an exceptional standard, the spacious and versatile accommodation includes an extensive main sitting/dining room, separate lounge, dining kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and garden room. Externally there is a separate large garage and a detached garden office / studio. This property includes sizeable private grounds to three sides, including lawns, hedging, flower beds, gravelled parking and a woodland area. Featuring abundant period character & charm, feature fireplaces, panelled doors, high ceilings, secondary glazing, coving, oak panelling, stylish fixtures & décor, contemporary bathrooms, and a superb staircase. The outbuildings could offer excellent further potential as annex accommodation or for home working (stp). We anticipate this property will appeal to a variety of discerning buyers and we advise an early viewing to appreciate the location, character, size, grounds and value.

LOCATION
Situated in this highly desirable and picturesque area, just inside the Lake District National Park. This is an ideal position for access into the beautiful surrounding countryside, fells & lakes of the Lake District and the nearby Yorkshire Dales and Eden Valley. The Cumbrian & Lancashire coast is also accessible, making this an ideal home and perennial holiday destination. The area offers excellent walks, bridle paths, cycle routes and stunning vistas. There are numerous surrounding villages, which together with Kendal and Windermere, provide plentiful local amenities, including restaurants, pubs, shops, supermarkets, highly regarded schools, leisure facilities and tourist attractions.

To the side of the property is a glazed garden room with a sunny seating area overlooking the formal gardens. These exceptional grounds are ideal for families & horticulturalists and provide superb relaxing and entertaining space.

Agent's Notes:
The property is held on a long leasehold. There are four homes within this main building. Shared septic tank. LPG heating with immersion hot water backup. Each apartment owns the loft space and is responsible for the corresponding roof above (ie above the master bedroom and landing). The neighbouring flat has a right of access over the gravelled area to access their rear garage. This apartment owns the tarmac shared access road from Windermere Road to the gardens, and is responsible for its maintenance. It was resurfaced approximately 2 years ago by the current owners. The other properties on the development do have an historic obligation to contribute a small token amount (£10pa per property) towards this upkeep. (This apartment was originally retained by the owner of the main house when it was split in the 1960s - hence it having the main staircase and entrance).
