Set on a quiet private cul-de-sac in northern Kendal, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers spacious rooms and strong outside space for a family looking to personalise. The bay-fronted lounge, separate second reception and full-width master bedroom provide flexible living immediately, while the generous front and rear gardens and large garage deliver practical outdoor and storage options.
The property requires a degree of modernisation throughout, making it well suited to buyers wanting to renovate and add value. The ground floor layout offers scope to reconfigure or extend (subject to planning consent), and exposed floorboards, original cupboards and a wood-burning stove provide character elements to retain or update.
Practical benefits include off-road parking for several vehicles, a divided garage with additional secure parking, mains services and freehold tenure. Local amenities are close by: good-rated primary and secondary schools, supermarkets and frequent transport links into Kendal and the nearby Lake District.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the house needs renovation throughout, the area has a recorded higher crime rate, and the property is in a high flood-risk area. These factors will affect insurance costs, refurbishment planning and ongoing running costs, so buyers should obtain specialist advice on flood mitigation and safety before purchase.
