Summary - HILL TOP INGS KENDAL LA8 9PY
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Lifestyle home with proven holiday income and sizeable development potential.
South-facing 1.25 acre hillside plot with panoramic National Park views
Set on a commanding south-facing hillside, this four-bedroom detached home sits within about 1.25 acres, offering sweeping views across the Lake District National Park. The main house is complemented by substantial outbuildings, a large shepherd’s hut and camping pitches currently used for holiday letting, creating immediate income potential and lifestyle versatility.
The plot includes a double and single garage (partitioned as office/workshop/storage), generous gardens, a field shelter and established camping areas. Owners report mains water, gas and electricity to the site, plus a private septic tank; the latter is a long-term maintenance responsibility. There is scope, subject to planning permission (STPP), to reconfigure or add other holiday accommodation such as pods or additional huts to boost income.
Notable practical points are clear: the house dates from the mid-20th century and may benefit from updating in places, council tax is described as expensive, and the property has a medium flood risk which buyers should investigate. Conversely, connectivity is strong (excellent mobile signal and fast broadband) and the hamlet is conveniently placed about five minutes from Windermere with local amenities and good schools nearby.
This location suits someone seeking a lifestyle property with trading potential — whether continuing the existing holiday business, expanding accommodation options (STPP), or enjoying extensive private grounds for equestrian, gardening or leisure use. The sale is offered chain free for a straightforward purchase.
