The property is ready for someone to move in and make their stamp, having been used as a second home for a number of years. There is double glazing and electric panel heaters, and a great addition is the garden to the rear that rises up a banking, offering long views over the roof-top of the cottages from the top. In addition there is off-road parking for as many as three cars.

Mealbank lies 2.4 miles to the north of Kendal, and it is just an 8 minute drive into the town centre where you will find all the amenities you need.
