Summary - LANSDOWNE, 20 LUMLEY ROAD KENDAL LA9 5HT
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Renovated five‑bedroom home with large gardens and abundant parking near the Lake District.
Five bedrooms including loft conversion with spiral staircase
Set on a generous corner plot in a quiet Kendal cul-de-sac, this five‑bedroom detached house blends recent renovation with spacious family living. The current owners have replaced the roof, updated flooring and installed a contemporary fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, creating a bright, well‑presented home ready for everyday use. Three reception rooms — sitting room, dining room and a sunroom — plus a converted loft bedroom give flexible living and entertaining space.
The gardens are a standout: mature planting, lawns, an orchard area with apple trees, bee hives and a rear decking area that looks out over surrounding fields. A balcony from two first‑floor bedrooms, a brick patio under the balcony and a sizeable driveway that holds 6–8 cars (plus extra front parking) and garage parking add practical outdoor living and generous vehicle space.
Practical details are family‑focused: mains gas central heating with radiators, double glazing, two family bathrooms (one on each floor) and internal garage access. The house sits close to local amenities, good schools, Oxenholme mainline station, the M6 and the Lake District — strong for commuting and leisure alike. EPC C and a large plot contribute to long‑term appeal.
Important considerations: the property, built c.1976–82, has cavity walls with partial insulation (assumed) and double glazing of unknown install date; while recently renovated, some buyers may want to confirm insulation and window age. There are only two bathrooms for five bedrooms, which may influence family routines. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The spiral staircase to the loft bedroom is an attractive feature but may be less suitable for very young children or mobility issues.
