Bright town-centre flat with parking and long lease ideal for first-time buyers.
Chain-free second-floor maisonette with versatile mezzanine level
Set on the second floor of a stone-built Highgate terrace, this bright two-bedroom maisonette is a practical, chain-free choice for first-time buyers seeking town-centre living. The generous lounge with vaulted ceiling and mezzanine creates a flexible living space for socialising or working from home, while an allocated off-street parking space and communal courtyard add convenience and outdoor interest.
The apartment has a modern fitted kitchen and shower room, two spacious double bedrooms with built-in storage, and useful eaves storage off the mezzanine. A long lease (963 years) and affordable council tax band C make the tenure straightforward for buyers moving onto the property ladder.
Practical points to note: heating is via electric storage heaters and there is no gas central heating, which may affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The property is a second-floor flat accessed by stairs, so it is not suitable for anyone with limited mobility. Crime levels in the area are above average — buyers should consider personal security measures and local research.
Overall this is a well-proportioned, characterful apartment in a convenient Kendal location, offering instant occupation and flexible layout potential for someone wanting a centrally placed first home with parking and low immediate maintenance requirements.
