Apartment 1, 13 Market Square, Kirkby Lonsdale, LA6 2AN

A rare opportunity to acquire a Grade II Listed property in the centre of Kirkby Lonsdale, available for purchase either as a whole or as individual units. This historic building has been thoughtfully and expertly converted from former solicitors' offices into a ground floor retail unit, with two stylish apartments above, accessed via a separate side entrance.

Both apartments have been attractively presented and sympathetically designed, retaining some original period features while providing exceptionally comfortable, contemporary accommodation suitable for either permanent living or holiday letting.

Kirkby Lonsdale itself boasts a range of independent shops, restaurants and bars, surrounded by spectacular countryside. The town is famous Devils Bridge, and the River Lune runs adjacent to the town providing a lovely circular walk for all.

The M6 is a short 10-minute drive away to Junction 36, providing easy access to the South, the North and Scotland parts, as well as local towns such as Kendal and Lancaster, with only 20 miles to the ever popular Lakes District National Park.

Apartment one comprises a private hallway leading into a beautifully refurbished kitchen/diner and living area. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern white high-gloss wall and base units, complemented by solid oak worktops and a white part-tiled splashback. Soft-close cabinets incorporate integrated appliances, including a Zanussi oven, induction hob with extractor, and dishwasher. Plumbing is provided for a washing machine, and a wall-mounted boiler is installed. A breakfast bar offers seating for two.

The living area, with secondary glazed windows overlooking the Market Square, features a built-in bookcase and cabinets surrounding the fireplace, creating a welcoming space. The double bedroom also overlooks the Market Square and is complemented by a modern a three-piece suite, including a low level W.C., vanity sink, and a double-ended Jacuzzi bath.

Each apartment has been meticulously constructed with energy efficiency in mind, featuring sound and thermal insulation, new boilers, new electrics, and a new roof installed at the time of conversion.
