Summary - 15 HOWE BANK CLOSE KENDAL LA9 7PU
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free two-bed flat with field views, balcony and allocated parking.
Chain free with 999-year lease
Bright first-floor flat at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, offered chain free and with long leasehold security (999 years). The open-plan lounge, dining area and well-appointed kitchen maximise light and the elevated position delivers open-field views towards the Lakeland fells. A decked balcony provides private outdoor seating and an allocated parking space adds daily convenience.
Practical running costs are moderate: a low service charge (£50pcm / approx. £600pa) and nominal ground rent (£5pa). Council Tax Band B keeps local charges affordable. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and the area is very low crime in a comfortable, affluent suburb with good local amenities and transport links.
Notable considerations: the property uses electric room heaters (no mains gas central heating) and holds an EPC rating of D, which may mean higher heating costs. Access is via an external staircase to the first-floor entrance — important for anyone with limited mobility. The flat is compact at c.445 sq ft and will suit buyers seeking a manageable, low-maintenance home rather than large family accommodation.
This home will appeal to first-time buyers, downsizers or investors looking for a tidy, low-upkeep flat in a well-regarded Kendal suburb. It presents a ready-to-live-in option with straightforward upkeep, scope for cosmetic upgrades, and strong rental/letting potential given location and transport links.
