Description
Nestled behind a stone wall, a wrought iron gate opens onto a stone path, accessed by a few steps, which winds around the front garden and provides access to a glazed garden door and round to a porch providing another entrance with potential for shoe and recycling storage. A glazed wooden door opens into a hall, with doors leading to all of the accommodation, a coat rack and a walk-in store room, with fitted upper cupboard.
The main reception is a bright and spacious living room, cleverly zoned to provide three separate seating and dining areas. There is a cosy lounge area with multi-fuel stove which sits alongside an eating area and then at the far end of the room is a generous seating area where you can relax and enjoy the spectacular views with glazed doors opening out onto easy maintenance decking. Across the hall from the living room is the kitchen, fitted with a range of white gloss and frosted glass storage cupboards with three-sided worktop - providing ample food preparation space. Fitted within the worktop is a stainless steel sink with mixer tap and a four ring gas hob. Integrated within the units is an electric twin oven/grill, fridge freezer and washing machine, with space available for a slimline dishwasher.
At the far end of the hall are two spacious double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes. The south facing bedroom features a glazed door opening out onto a patio and the garden and the north facing bedroom has a fitted vanity basin, with storage below. The third bedroom is a generous size single, with fitted wardrobe, overhead storage and space for freestanding drawers. The bathroom includes a four piece white suite and comprises of a spa bath with hand held shower, an enclosure with wall mounted shower; WC and pedestal wash hand basin. A cupboard within the room houses the new combi-boiler, obviating the need for water cylinders.
There is a huge boarded attic space, accessed from the hall via a sturdy loft ladder, with two roof lights installed. This provides immense additional storage space, or has the possibility to create further rooms subject to the necessary permissions.
Outside of the property is a south-facing established lawn garden with planted borders and hard standing with a greenhouse, enclosed within a high stone wall. Eight solar panels on the roof help provide electricity and export to the grid. The raised decking can also be accessed from the garden to sit and enjoy the stunning views across Kendal, extending towards Farleton Knott and Clougha Pike in the distance. There is a south facing log store, a private courtyard, useful studio/work space with lights and power sockets, a store accessed from inside the studio, and a bike shed accessed separately. Next to the studio and bike shed is a gate with steps leading down to a covered, open storage area and parking space for a small / medium car or van, with the potential to create an electric charging point within. There is permitted vehicular and pedestrian access up a private drive to this undercover area.
