Spacious five-bedroom Victorian home with annex and very large private garden.
Large Victorian detached house with strong period features
Holm Croft is an elegant Victorian detached house set within Kendal’s conservation area, offering substantial family accommodation across three floors. Period features — high ceilings, sash and arched windows, deep skirtings and original fireplaces — give the home strong character, while large reception rooms and a spacious principal bedroom provide comfortable everyday living.
The property sits on a very large, private plot with mature trees, a woodland edge and a sheltered patio, ideal for family gardening, children and outdoor entertaining. A gravel driveway provides ample off-street parking and leads to an attached garage. An adjoining self-contained annex with its own entrance, utility and cloakroom creates useful space for a home office, guest accommodation or multigenerational living.
Practical benefits include mains services, fast/ultrafast broadband and low local crime in a very affluent neighbourhood. The house is walking distance to Kendal town centre, local schools and Kendal Castle, and has good road and rail links for commuting or country access.
Important points: the house is sold chain free but is offered ready for new owners to update, so some modernisation is likely required to bring kitchens, bathrooms and services up to contemporary standards. Being in a conservation area may restrict external alteration options. Council Tax is Band F, reflecting higher running costs for large period homes.
