Summary - THE HOMESTEAD, ROWGATE, KIRKBY STEPHEN CA17 4SR
2 bed 2 bath Detached Bungalow
Generous plot close to countryside and local amenities.
Detached dormer bungalow on large wraparound plot
Set on a generous, mostly level plot in Kirkby Stephen, this detached dormer bungalow offers spacious family accommodation and strong rental or holiday-let potential. The ground floor includes a large living room, separate dining room, well-appointed kitchen with adjoining utility, shower room and a master bedroom with en-suite; a second sizable double sits on the first floor. A wide private driveway and garage provide ample off-street parking.
The house is stone-built (1930s–1940s) with later double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The gardens wrap around the property, providing private outdoor space and countryside views to the rear—useful for families, gardeners or guests. The location is convenient for local schools, shops and long-distance walking routes, with good road links to the M6 and nearby towns.
Material drawbacks are disclosed: the property needs renovation and some modernisation to kitchen and bathrooms to suit contemporary tastes. The stone walls are assumed uninsulated, and energy performance is lower (E/F range indicated), so buyers should expect potential improvement costs. Broadband speeds are slow here, which may affect remote working or streaming without alternative solutions.
Offered chain free on a freehold title, this home suits families seeking roomy accommodation, buyers wanting a peaceful holiday base near the Lakes, or investors targeting long-stay or holiday-let markets. Factor renovation and energy upgrades into your budget to unlock the property’s full value.
