Property description

Stonycroft is a fabulous detached period residence in an elevated position allowing commanding panoramic views from the upper levels extending from Ingleborough through the Shap Fells to Coniston Old Man.



Occupying a secluded location within the coastal village of Arnside yet offering convenient access to all the local amenities along with the M6 motorway and the Lake District National Park. Stonycroft was originally constructed by The Worsdell family when William Worsdell purchased a plot of land in Arnside in 1878 with the amassed fortune accumulated from his locomotive background, initially as a holiday home but latterly as his family residence.



The accommodation extends over four levels and has been sympathetically renovated by the current vendors to provide an excellent family home with high quality fixtures throughout including a bespoke kitchen, contemporary bathrooms, Lutron lighting, Opus sound system. There is gas central heating combined with retained character features including sash windows, cornice, picture rails, deep skirting boards and fire places.



The extremely well proportioned accommodation briefly comprises entrance vestibule, entrance hall, sitting room, drawing room, dining room, breakfast kitchen and study to the ground floor. To the first floor is a master suite, four double bedrooms and family bathroom with the second floor having three double bedrooms, bathroom, games room and fully equipped cinema room.



To complete the picture are two cellar rooms, a range of outbuildings, enclosed courtyard and secure gated off road parking. The delightful gardens, grounds and drive extend to approximately 0.70 acres with the gardens comprising level lawns with patio and careful boundary planting providing privacy. In all Stonycroft is a splendid example of a complete, quality Victorian property which is becoming increasingly rare to find.
