Ottersholme is a unique private house on the shores of Lake Windermere with some fascinating features which make the most of its situation. The property has accommodation all on one level consisting of three/four bedrooms and two reception rooms alongside two garden rooms, kitchen and a study.
The house, which has over 3,500sq ft of interior space, has been designed specifically to make the most of the views from the windows looking out over the lake and is extremely versatile.
The grounds are a mixture of lawns and woodland including a number of feature Yew trees. The gardens also boast a charming summerhouse which enjoys south-facing views out over the lake and which has a feature mural by the Lakeland artist Jenny Cowern. The wet dock boathouse comes with a motor launch. From the gardens a timber walkway leads out into the lake to a small island from which there are panoramic views towards Claife Heights with the islands in Bowness Bay in the foreground.
