Lakeside Cottage is a beautifully restored Grade II listed retreat overlooking Swithland Reservoir, where historic character meets contemporary luxury. This thoughtfully renovated four-bedroom home offers open-plan living, freestanding baths, vaulted ceilings and breathtaking wildlife views, creating the perfect setting for relaxed escapes with family, friends and four-legged companions.
Positioned by Swithland Reservoir, Lakeside Cottage is a character-filled countryside escape, thoughtfully reimagined through an impressive architectural renovation. Original fireplace features and heritage detailing are paired effortlessly with refined, modern finishes to create a home that feels both timeless and indulgent.
At its heart lies a spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, fully equipped for entertaining and extended stays. Sliding doors open onto a generous patio, inviting the outdoors in and framing uninterrupted reservoir views. A separate living room offers a cosy retreat for quieter evenings, while a convenient utility space and built-in pet accommodation ensure comfort for every guest, including your four-legged companions.
A double bedroom is located on the ground floor, ideal for flexible group stays.
Upstairs, two beautifully presented spacious bedrooms and a cosy bedroom with a three-quarter bed offer calm and comfort. The master bedroom is particularly special, with high vaulted ceilings and sweeping views across the reservoir, woodland and gardens. Complete with a dressing area and a luxury en-suite bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and elegant gold accents, it delivers boutique hotel refinement. A further luxury family bathroom, also with a freestanding bath, continues the home’s elevated finish.
