About this property

A spectacular architect designed, 5-star property for a very special holiday or celebration, this outstanding residence offers the best of modern living and certainly has the wow factor. Jaspers Retreat enjoys an elevated position on Brantfell, just minutes from the villages of Bowness and Windermere. Glass balconies and floor to ceiling windows throughout Jaspers Retreat, make the most of spectacular views to Lake Windermere and the Coniston Fells beyond. Whatever the weather, a choice of indoor or al-fresco dining make this an ideal property all year round.

The large entrance hall opens into an extremely useful utility room with shower room and wc. It also leads the way into a superb bedroom with four poster bed and glass doors opening onto a balcony, revealing more of those stunning views. A few steps up from the entrance is the main living space. A huge, open plan sitting room in which to spread out and relax. Sumptuous furnishings, beamed ceilings, cosy underfloor heating and mesmerising wood burning stove make this a wonderful place in which to chat with friends. A large family dining area is ideal for lazy breakfasts spent reading the papers, or elegant evening meals by candlelight and the kitchen is to die for, with its state-of-the-art appliances and glorious outlook.

The final two bedrooms are found just a few steps down from the entrance hall. The master bedroom with en-suite, a divine family bathroom with walk in shower, and third bedroom with super king size bed which can be made up as a twin. Be sure to request this in advance. Both of these rooms have sliding glass doors that open on to a large patio overlooking the local countryside.
