Cross House, Main Street, Arkholme, LA6 1AX

Description Welcome to Cross House, a wonderful Grade II Listed detached property, set within the village of Arkholme. Boasting a generous plot with a gravel driveway, lawn gardens and stone outhouse, the property presents a great opportunity for the new buyer to make it their own.

The accommodation comprises a kitchen, dining room and cosy living room, with three bedrooms and family bathroom to the first floor. Now in need of updating, the property offers scope for modernisations, with a wealth of traditional features throughout from beams to sash windows.

Arkholme itself has a welcoming village community, with a village hall often used for community events and activities, and has a fortnightly mobile fish and chip shop! There is a well regarded primary school, with the village also being within the catchment area for QES in Kirkby Lonsdale. There is also a church located at the bottom of the cul-de-sac on Main Street.  

Property Overview Step through the gate into the wonderful garden, with stone wall surround for privacy and access into the home.

Firstly, you are welcomed into the kitchen through a stable door, with views over the garden. The kitchen is well fitted with wall and base units, complementary worktops and tiled splashback with a stainless steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include an AEG oven with four ring hob and extractor over, and there is space for an undercounter washing machine, dishwasher and freestanding fridge/freezer.

Follow into the inner hall with access into the living spaces and stairs to the first floor.

Turning left, you are welcomed into the dining room; a generous space with a front aspect window over the garden and a door leading outside. With space for a family dining table, this is the perfect space to enjoy meals with family and friends, with a stone fireplace and coal effect fire for those cooler evenings. There is also a handy larder providing the ideal space for storing essentials or use as a pantry with shelving and an under stairs cupboard.

The living room adjoins, also enjoying views over the garden and presenting a wonderful snug to cosy down on those cooler evenings with a wood burning stove with tile surround, boasting original beams enhancing the traditional feel.

Follow the stairs to the first floor where you will find the three bedrooms and family bathroom. Bedroom one is a double room with integrated wardrobes and dual aspect windows, with space for additional furniture as desired. Bedroom two is a smaller double, enjoying a window seat overlooking the garden. Whilst bedroom three is a single room, it also has great potential as a study for those who work from home. Finally, the bathroom, now in need of updating, presents a great scope to really upgrade the space with a bath and shower over, W.C., pedestal sink and integrated storage, along with a dressing area.

The garden wraps around the property, mostly laid to lawn with gravelled areas and space for outdoor seating, with a stone wall and hedging bordering the property for ample privacy.

There is also an attached store, great for storing gardening tools which is accessed from the rear of the property with light and power, and could be incorporated into the home (subject to consents) to create a great additional living space. A separate outside W.C. also has the scope to be converted, subject to consents, for use as additional storage.
