Green Garth, Staveley, Kendal, Cumbria, LA8

OVERVIEW

Centrally positioned yet hidden away, this traditional end terraced house is a real find. The accommodation is over three floors and although requiring some updating, is already well proportioned and a good size. Some traditional features remain and there are lovely views over fells and countryside to three sides. A larger than expected garden space extends to the side and has a lovely 'secret garden' feel with mature cottage styling planting and evergreens. There is also a gated off road parking accessed from the rear lane - a rarity in the property is this style and there is potential to extend the parking further into the garden/patio. A special property, forming part of an attractive terrace, viewing is a must. Staveley is a pretty Lakeland village within the National Park. Popular with permanent residents and visitors alike, the village boasts shops, cafes and the Mill Yard with many artisan businesses. Kendal and Windermere are easily accessible and there is (truncated)
