The 11-bedroomed residence, Wansfell Holme, dates back to the 1800s and has been restored over the last six years by its owners.
The property, situated in Windermere, retains many of its period features, including gothic traceried fanlights, high ceilings with intricate coving, and deep skirting boards.
It also boasts an orangery which connects to an outdoor seating terrace and the breakfast kitchen through three sets of double doors.
The estate agents said: “Discover the tranquility of life at Wansfell Holme, where panoramic views of Lake Windermere and impressive mountainous fells can be seen throughout the home and its gardens.
“This exquisite home certainly has a striking façade and sits beneath Wansfell Pike and National Trust woodland, providing a picturesque backdrop and peaceful setting.”
The property is currently divided into two four-bedroom houses and a three-bedroom cottage, although it could be reverted back to a single home.
The total accommodation spans a whopping 10,914 square feet.
The estate agents continued: “Wansfell Holme stands at the top of a newly cobbled sweeping driveway, which stretches c.100m in length, adding fantastic exclusivity and privacy.
“Off-road parking for over 10 vehicles is provided throughout the driveway and two parking areas, as well as a detached double garage with a mezzanine and a single garage.”
The ground includes landscaped gardens totalling approximately 2.7 acres, with a variety of specimen trees and plants.
The estate agents added: “The primary gardens are located to the front of the house, which benefit from a south-west facing aspect towards Lake Windermere and contain large expanses of manicured lawns, a pond and a pleasant stone flagged seating terrace that wraps around the orangery.”
The property offers potential savings of over £640,000 in stamp duty land tax if qualified for mixed use.
The estate agents described it as a “once in a lifetime opportunity” to acquire such a property in one of the Lake District’s most desirable locations.
