Summary - 18 LONGPOOL KENDAL LA9 6ER
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Characterful two-bed near shops, station and schools.
Stone-built Victorian terrace with original feature bread oven
This stone-built Victorian terrace offers characterful living in the heart of Kendal, arranged over three floors with a compact 600 sq ft footprint. The living room's exposed stone, timber beams and original bread oven with open fire give immediate period charm, while the lower-ground open-plan kitchen/diner provides a practical, sociable hub. Two bedrooms and a modern shower room sit on the first floor, suited to a couple or small family.
Practical strengths include mains gas central heating, double glazing, a Council Tax band A and an EPC rating of C, plus excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for commuters and renters. The enclosed courtyard patio offers a private, low-maintenance outdoor space in a town-centre position with easy access to shops, schools and the train station.
Important negatives are factual: the home is small with a very small plot, built before 1900 with stone walls likely lacking cavity insulation, and is in an area with above-average crime and higher local deprivation. The property is presented well but may require future energy-efficiency improvements and continued maintenance typical of period houses.
Overall, this freehold terrace is well suited to first-time buyers seeking a character home in Kendal or investors seeking a town-centre buy-to-let with good rental prospects. Viewings will suit those comfortable with a compact layout and the ongoing upkeep of a period property.
