Summary - Appleby Road, Kendal LA9 6ES
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Characterful three-bed home with gated parking and workshop near Kendal centre.
Stone-built Victorian semi with characterful bay-front lounge
This stone-built Victorian semi-detached house on Appleby Road offers comfortable family accommodation in a highly convenient Kendal location. The layout delivers a bright bay-fronted lounge, a modern kitchen/diner with separate utility and cloakroom, three well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish shower room — practical spaces for everyday living. A gated stone-chipped driveway and a large workshop/outbuilding add secure parking and useful storage or home-workspace options.
The property suits buyers who value town-centre access and commuter links: supermarkets, schools and Kendal train station are all close by, and the A591 provides direct routes to the Lake District. The home is freehold with affordable Council Tax Band C, an advantage for long-term running costs. The loft is fully boarded and carpeted, providing valuable storage without immediate conversion work.
There are some material considerations to note. At around 789 sq ft the house and plot are modest in size, so buyers needing extensive gardens or very large living areas should be aware. The stone walls date from before 1900 and appear to lack built-in insulation (assumed), the glazing install date is unknown and the EPC is to be confirmed — together these point to likely improvement works to raise energy efficiency and reduce bills. Local area data also indicates above-average crime levels and higher deprivation compared with wider districts; purchasers prioritising neighbourhood calm should view with that context in mind.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located family home with clear strengths — bay-front living room, modern kitchen, gated parking and a versatile outbuilding — and straightforward upgrade opportunities around insulation and energy performance for buyers who want to add value and comfort.
