Description

This stone and slate residence presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, positioned in a desirable area just a short walk from Kendal town center. The property offers a spacious garden that not only enhances outdoor living but also holds considerable potential for landscaping or possible expansion. Upon entry, you are greeted by a porch that serves as a practical space for coats and shoes. Moving further inside, the dining room provides a well-proportioned area that connects seamlessly to the living room, which benefits from abundant natural light through its bay window. This layout creates an inviting atmosphere, ideal for family gatherings or entertaining guests. The kitchen features essential wall and base units, an inset sink with drainer, built-in oven, and ample space for additional appliances like a fridge/freezer. A sizeable pantry cupboard adds to the storage options. Beyond the kitchen lies utility space equipped with plumbing for a washing machine and windows that overlook the garden; this area also includes access to a coal store located beneath. The first floor is designed to accommodate three bedrooms alongside a bathroom. The first bedroom is generously sized with two windows that provide pleasing views of the rear and side gardens. The second bedroom is another good-sized double room facing the front of the property, while the third is suitable as a single room or home office. The bathroom offers a four-piece suite including both bath and shower options. Notably, the outdoor space stands out as one of the property's most appealing features. At the front, there is a manageable yard complete with wood storage and an outdoor tap. The expansive rear garden is enclosed by both walls and hedges, ensuring privacy while offering ample room for future development or personal landscaping projects. Located within walking distance of local amenities and attractions such as Kendal Castle—popular for family walks—the property benefits from its central position yet retains a sense of tranquility away from busy thoroughfares. With its current condition requiring updates, this property represents an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to create their ideal home while increasing value through renovations.
