- Approximately 818 sq ft; easy to maintain footprint

This deceptively spacious ground-floor apartment sits in the heart of Kendal, minutes from shops, transport links and cultural attractions. The interior feels modern and bright, with a separate kitchen and a versatile lounge/diner that will suit everyday living or flexible working-from-home layouts. Two double bedrooms and an EPC B rating make it a practical, energy-efficient home for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Practical positives include an unusually long lease (138 years) and a compact footprint of about 818 sq ft that’s straightforward to maintain. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and the property offers quick access to Oxenholme mainline connections and outdoor recreation in the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.
Notable drawbacks are factual: the property is leasehold with a ground rent of £600 (relatively high) and there is no private garden or external space. The Victorian exterior and terrace require modernization, and the pavement is narrow. Local recorded crime levels are very high — buyers should consider security and lifestyle implications.
Overall, this ground-floor flat will suit someone seeking a well-located, low-maintenance home or an investor after a centrally positioned two-bedroom asset. The combination of period character externally, modern interior, long lease and EPC B presents clear potential, provided the external renovation need, ground rent and local safety context are acceptable to the purchaser.
