A home in Rimington, that has been described as an “architecturally-designed masterpiece”, has been praised for its “magnificent views” over the countryside.
Each of the three floors of Thirlmere, which has a guide price of £2,850,000, has been thoughtfully designed with high-end finishes to create a truly exceptional family home.
With a plot size of approximately 1.83 acres there is certainly plenty of land and space to play with.
Ideal for a modern buyer, the home offers both practical and luxurious features. From the moment you step into the spacious entrance hall, it's clear to see this home has been built to exacting standards. It has a striking floating staircase, sophisticated tiled floors, and underfloor heating.
The heart of the home is the dining room and kitchen, a space that blends style with utility. The bespoke kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art appliances. Dual-aspect sliding doors connect this space to the landscaped gardens, allowing natural light to flood the area while also providing stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
It’s easy to see yourself relaxing in the living room, complete with a wood-burning stove.
Upstairs, the first floor houses four double bedrooms. The master room suite is particularly impressive, with sliding doors that open to breathtaking views, twin dressing rooms with bespoke wardrobes, and a luxurious five-piece en-suite. This spa-like bathroom features a freestanding bath and a a walk-in rainfall shower.
The remaining three bedrooms also include en-suite facilities, ensuring comfort and privacy for family or guests. From the first floor you can see tranquil views of Pendle Hill and the rooftop sedum garden (a roof that's partially or completely covered with sedum plants).
The lower ground floor of Thirlmere is the place to be if you want to entertain guests or just escape for an hour or two. It features a games room, a gym, and an impressive walk-in wine cellar with glass frontage, perfect for wine enthusiasts. From this floor, you can also access a four-car garage, which is equipped with tiled flooring and ample built-in storage.
If this was not enough, there is also a one bedroom annex on the land which is perfect for guests. It includes a private entrance, living/dining kitchen, bedroom, and en-suite bathroom.
The outdoor space at Thirlmere is as remarkable as the interior. The gardens have been meticulously landscaped, featuring a mix of lawns, patio areas, a parterre garden (a formal garden laid out on a level area and made up of enclosed beds, separated by gravel) complete with a water feature.
Also outside is a a wildflower meadow and a wildlife pond.
A spokesperson for Fine & Country, which is marketing the property, said: “An architecturally-designed masterpiece of a home that offers stylish and contemporary living over three floors built to exacting standards in a most sought after position within Rimington… benefitting from the most delightful views.
“There is the added convenience of an annexe making multi-generational living an option.”
