Summary - CUNSWICK END CROOK ROAD KENDAL LA8 8LY
3 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Renovated single‑level home with studio, large garden and scenic rural views.
Detached single‑storey bungalow on a very large mature plot
Set on a very large plot with sweeping countryside views, this renovated 1960s detached bungalow combines single‑level living with flexible outbuildings. The bright living room with engineered oak flooring, wood burner and large picture windows anchors the home; a newly fitted 2024 kitchen with quartz worktops and integrated appliances opens via sliding doors to the garden. Three double bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom provide comfortable accommodation, while two attic rooms offer scope for conversion (subject to planning).
The plot includes a heated, Wi‑Fi enabled studio with bi‑fold doors — currently used as a Pilates room — plus an integrated garage, ample driveway parking, vegetable beds and mature planting. The gardens are well maintained with multiple patios and quiet seating areas, and the setting gives easy access to local footpaths, Kendal, Bowness and the M6 for travel and outdoor pursuits.
Practical points to note: the property uses oil-fired central heating and a private septic tank, the glazing is secondary rather than full double glazing, and the EPC is rated E. The mid‑century cavity walls were built without added insulation (assumed) and loft areas would need proper work and permissions to create extra living space. Council tax is described as expensive.
This home will appeal to downsizers and buyers seeking a single‑storey, characterful home with substantial gardens and separate studio space. It’s been modernised internally so purchasers can move in and enjoy the setting immediately, while those wanting to lower running costs or expand accommodation can plan targeted upgrades (insulation, glazing, heating system) over time.
