A bright, well-proportioned first-floor apartment in Kendal’s conservation area, offering two double bedrooms and an open-plan living/kitchen. Large windows frame views across the River Kent and Kendal Castle, and recent decoration makes the space ready to personalise. Shared roof terrace and secure bike storage add practical outdoor and storage options without maintenance responsibility.
This leasehold flat is chain-free with an exceptionally long lease (969 years remaining), sensible running costs and ultrafast broadband — attractive for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The layout is efficient: good storage in the entrance hall, a modern fitted kitchen and a part-tiled bathroom keep day-to-day living straightforward.
Important considerations: the property sits in a high flood-risk area and the local crime level is recorded as very high. Service charge is approximately £1,200 per year and ground rent £25 annually; these are manageable but material for budgeting. Access is on the first floor via communal stairs, which may limit accessibility for some buyers.
Overall this apartment offers a low-hassle city-centre base with strong commuter and leisure links, immediate possession potential and clear scope to add value through cosmetic upgrades. Viewings are recommended for buyers seeking a compact, well-located home or a rental opportunity close to Kendal’s amenities.
