Set on a generous corner plot in a peaceful High Garth location, this freehold two-bedroom semi-detached house offers substantial outside space and off-street parking with no onward chain. The property is well suited to first-time buyers or those wanting room to grow, with a large sloping lawn, paved seating areas and plentiful parking for several vehicles.
Inside, the home is naturally bright and practical: a cosy lounge with chimney breast, separate dining area, pantry and a fitted kitchen on the ground floor. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms and a modern shower room; the master bedroom enjoys pleasant views towards the Lakeland fells. Double glazing and mains gas central heating are already in place.
The plot and layout provide clear potential for extension or redevelopment, subject to necessary planning consents. Buyers should be aware that the house dates from the 1930s and, while functional, would benefit from cosmetic updating in places to realise its full potential. The sloping garden is attractive but will require regular maintenance and attention if kept as planted beds and lawn.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, low council tax (Band B), fast broadband and good local amenities nearby, including primary schools rated Good and easy access to Kendal town centre and the Lake District. The property represents a straightforward, chain-free purchase for someone seeking a comfortable starter home with scope to extend or modernise.
