Location

Appleby Road is a well-regarded residential area located on the northern edge of Kendal town centre. The property enjoys excellent access to a wide range of local amenities, including Morrisons, Aldi, and Sainsbury’s supermarkets, as well as Queen Katherine Secondary School and Kendal train station. The vibrant market town of Kendal, with its shops, cafes, and cultural attractions, is just a short drive away, while the nearby A591 provides convenient commuter links to the Lake District and beyond.

Description

Upon entering the property, you're welcomed directly into the lounge—a naturally bright and inviting reception space that flows effortlessly into the adjoining kitchen. The room is centred around a multi-fuel stove, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere, while a recessed alcove to one side offers the perfect spot for displaying books or decorative items.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of storage cupboards and a contrasting two-sided worktop that wraps around to subtly separate the space from the lounge. It includes a stainless steel sink with mixer tap, a four-ring electric hob, and a built-in electric oven/grill. An opening off the kitchen leads through to the rear porch, where there is ample space for an upright fridge freezer. From here, you’ll find access to a separate utility room, along with a part-glazed door opening out to the rear garden.

Stairs from the kitchen lead up to the first-floor landing, giving access to a spacious double bedroom and a contemporary shower room. The bedroom spans the full width of the property to the front, offering generous proportions and plenty of space to accommodate a range of freestanding furniture.

The shower room is fitted with a stylish three-piece suite, comprising a large walk-in enclosure with both a wall-mounted and rainfall shower, a WC, and a wash hand basin set within a vanity unit, providing useful storage and a sleek, modern finish.

Concealed stairs rise from the first floor to the second-floor bedroom, a spacious double room full of character. Exposed timber beams add charm and warmth, while Velux roof lights provide ample natural light and offer picturesque views towards Benson Knott, creating a serene and elevated retreat within the home.

Outside, to the rear of the property, is a flagged patio area, ideal for alfresco dining or relaxing in the warmer months. Beyond the patio lies a generous lawn garden, offering plenty of space for children to play, gardening, or landscaping to suit personal preferences.
