Set across three floors, this Victorian stone mid-terrace blends period character with practical living. The house has three double bedrooms, a family bathroom plus an additional shower room — useful for families or sharers — and a spacious kitchen-diner that forms the heart of the home. The separate sitting room offers a cosy retreat with exposed beams and traditional features.
Comfort and basic energy measures are already in place: the property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC rating of C. Its central Kendal location places everyday shops, cafes and schools within walking distance, with direct routes to the M6 and the Lake District for leisure or commuting.
The house does require modernisation and personalisation; fixtures and finishes are dated and there is clear scope to update the kitchen, bathrooms and internal decor to contemporary standards. Outdoor space is limited to a small paved front courtyard and a rear patio; there is no off-street parking beyond on-street permit parking.
Practical considerations: the property sits in an area with above-average crime statistics and in a locality described as constrained for renters and hampered aspiration. While this mitigates some resale premium, the size, layout and proximity to Kendal town centre make it a sensible choice for a growing family seeking a character home or an investor seeking rental demand in a central location.
