Compact three-bed period home near Kendal town centre with courtyard and garage.
Stone-built terraced cottage with period features and exposed beams
This three-bedroom stone terraced cottage offers period character in a central Kendal setting, walking distance from the town centre and close to local woods and the golf course. Exposed beams, an exposed stone bedroom wall and elevated town views give the house authentic charm and immediate kerb appeal. Furniture can be included if required, making it an easy move for a family or second‑home buyer.
Accommodation is arranged over split levels: a cosy lounge with character features leads to a kitchen/diner, with a lower ground double bedroom, modern bathroom and utility room that opens onto a private paved courtyard. The first floor houses two further bedrooms and a cloakroom; the master includes access to a boarded loft for extra storage. A garage and permit parking add practical benefits in this central location.
Buyers should note important practical points: the overall internal size is small (approximately 527 sq ft) with some low ceilings and compact rooms, and the property’s thermal performance is limited (EPC D; walls are likely uninsulated). The main heating is electric room heaters despite a gas fire being described in the lounge. The area’s crime level is recorded as very high — an important consideration for buyers.
This home will suit a buyer who values character and location over expansive living space — a small family, couple, or someone seeking a pied-à-terre near Kendal’s amenities and the Lake District. Where desired, there is clear potential for targeted improvements (insulation, heating upgrade, and interior refurbishment) to raise comfort and running costs.
