Wind your way up Chapel Hill and arrive at Howe Head, an area steeped in local lore. The streets, adorned with low doorways and slate signposts, guide you to Dwarf Hall's private parking space, ensuring a seamless arrival.
Picture yourself laden with delicious treats, approaching the majestic front door framed by vibrant azaleas. The giant, locally crafted door stands as a testament to the rich history encapsulated within Dwarf Hall’s walls, offering a warm welcome to your home away from home.
As you step inside, be enchanted by the seamless blend of rustic charm and timeless elegance. Become part of the home's extended history amongst locally sourced Kirkstone slate tiles, oak beams, and limestone accents along curved walls.
Ascend the steps to the upper floor and bask in the natural light cascading through the vaulted glass ceiling illuminating the open-plan layout. The spacious family bathroom, complete with bath and shower, conveniently serves all three bedrooms from the end of the corridor.
Calm and welcoming, with a good night’s sleep guaranteed, the double and twin bedrooms both offer cosy sanctuaries with captivating views of Ambleside’s rooftops and rolling hills. Both rooms are complete with handy storage, Lakeland themes artwork and stunning blue hues that pull from the crisp evening sky, visible from cosy beds.
The master bedroom, with its panoramic vistas of Top Cragg and Loughrigg fell, is a hiker's dream come true. Bag a Wainwright without leaving your bed! The room breathes warmth and relaxation, a constant encouragement to hit snooze, pop the kettle back on or enjoy one more chapter. Why not treat yourself to an early night as the sky turns pink and watch the swallows dance in the twilight, from the comfort of crisp sheets and warm blankets. The large, south-facing room is practical as well as beautiful, with stunning furniture including a large wardrobe and bespoke cabinet ready to fill with all your favourite items.
The corridors and ancient passageways that flow within Dwarf Hall are a throwback to the building’s colourful past. Arrow slits become decorative features, curved walls house inlaid shelves and exposed stones contrast with the soft décor and warm lighting throughout the home.
The living room, with exposed oak beams and a harmonious mix of old-world charm and modern comforts, becomes your sanctuary within solid stone walls. Recline on soft leather sofas and relish the sun on your face. Or hunker down in the evenings and enjoy the peaceful ambience. The attention to detail in this room brings bursts of yellow cheer, a fun and upbeat addition to this ancient building. The room is the perfect place for the whole family to come together, whether that be over drinks and nibbles, board games, or your favourite TV shows on the smart TV.
Heading back past the imposing front door, steps lead down past the WC, ideally located for freshening up post-walk, and stowing coats and boots away in the cloakroom.
The heart of this home is the kitchen – a haven of culinary delights with dazzling natural light and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Equipped with top-notch amenities, including a Nespresso coffee machine, dishwasher, and induction hob. Perfect for family gatherings and intimate dinners.
Through the kitchen, and down the slate steps into the depths of the building, a practical utility area houses a washing machine and larder. A second large family bathroom receded at the base of the steps. Complete with a walk-in shower to ensure the whole group can be up and out on time.
Step outside to the garden patio, a hidden oasis bursting with life. Enjoy alfresco dining amongst blooming flowers. With rambling roses and clematis clinging to the old stone walls, sit and watch the wildlife. Or, while away the afternoon with views of the mountains.
