Today’s newsletter is all about rarity, the kind that simply cannot be replicated. Prime, front line lake frontage on Windermere is among the most tightly held and fiercely coveted assets in UK property, and opportunities like this are few and far between.

We’re featuring a newly built, turnkey residence that combines architectural calm with one of the most beautiful natural backdrops in the country.

Completed in 2023, Storrs Holme is an exceptional contemporary lakeside residence set directly on the western shore of Windermere, England’s largest and most celebrated lake. Offering over 10,000 sq ft of beautifully designed accommodation, this home blends architectural elegance with a profound connection to its surroundings.

Internally, the house unfolds across four thoughtfully planned levels, each maximising light, views and flow. The expansive open plan living kitchen forms the heart of the home, opening onto a full-width balcony that frames uninterrupted lake and fell views.

Designed for both entertaining and retreat, the house features a refined sitting room, private cinema, games room and fully equipped bar. Six luxurious en suite bedrooms provide flexible accommodation for family and guests, all finished with bespoke joinery, designer materials and a calming, understated palette.

Outside, Landscaped terraces and level lawns cascade gently toward the water’s edge, creating a seamless transition between house and lake. Frameless glass balustrades preserve uninterrupted views, while multiple seating areas are perfectly positioned to capture afternoon sun and golden sunsets over Claife Heights

Outstanding Feature: The 35 metres of private lake frontage, complete with two boathouses and a jetty. From early morning swims to sunset sailing and lakeside gatherings, this is direct access to Windermere at its very best. Entirely private, west-facing and utterly breathtaking.

Imagine this. You open your phone to an alert. It says, “you spent $236,000,000 more this month than you did last month.”

If you were the top bidder at Sotheby’s fall auctions, it could be reality.

Sounds crazy, right? But when the ultra-wealthy spend staggering amounts on blue-chip art, it’s not just for decoration.

The scarcity of these treasured artworks has helped drive their prices, in exceptional cases, to thin-air heights, without moving in lockstep with other asset classes.

The contemporary and post war segments have even outpaced the S&P 500 overall since 1995.*

Now, over 70,000 people have invested $1.2 billion+ across 500 iconic artworks featuring Banksy, Basquiat, Picasso, and more.

How? You don’t need Medici money to invest in multimillion dollar artworks with Masterworks.

Thousands of members have gotten annualized net returns like 14.6%, 17.6%, and 17.8% from 26 sales to date.

Tomorrow, we will be showcasing a once in a generation opportunity to own the first castle built in the UK in over 100 years. Alcester Castle is built on the site of an original 18th century folly castle commissioned for Lord and Lady Hertford and envisioned by the Prince Regent himself.

Homes like Storrs Holme represent more than exceptional design, they offer an experience shaped by water, light and nature. For those seeking privacy, beauty and long term rarity, front line lake properties remain among the most compelling lifestyle investments in the UK.
