This Victorian mid-terrace cottage in the heart of Kirkby Stephen offers generous, characterful living across three floors. High ceilings, a front bay window and original stonework give the house strong period appeal, while the layout — two double bedrooms plus a large loft room — suits families, holiday use or rental income.
The property benefits from attractive front and rear gardens; the rear enjoys an open outlook over surrounding fields for a quiet, rural feel despite town-centre convenience. The town provides good local amenities, rail links on the scenic Settle–Carlisle line, and nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted. Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas boiler and radiators, and a modest council tax band.
Buyers should be aware this is an older property constructed before 1900 with likely solid sandstone/limestone walls and assumed lack of cavity insulation. Period homes of this type often need ongoing maintenance and improvements — upgrades to insulation, glazing and decorative refurbishment are probable if modern energy performance and finishes are required. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, which may affect remote working needs. There is one family bathroom serving three bedrooms.
Overall, 13 Park Terrace suits someone seeking a spacious, characterful home in a market town with countryside views, or an investor wanting a holiday-let or long-term rental with straightforward refurbishment potential.
