Bonningate Cottage, Bonningate, Kendal, Cumbria, LA8 8JU

Set in the heart of picturesque Bonningate, a small National Park hamlet , this delightful end-terraced cottage is full of character and charm. Set approximately 2.9 miles from the Market Town of Kendal. The property therefore offers easy access to the M6 Motorway, Kendal, Lake District National Park and Oxenholme mainline railway station.

As you step through the porch and into the kitchen, you're immediately welcomed by exposed beams and countryside views. The well-appointed kitchen features a range of base and wall units, integrated Siemens appliances including a four-ring hob and dishwasher, fridge, an extractor fan, and a classic butler-style sink that perfectly frames the surrounding scenery. A dining area offers a cosy space for meals, while an understairs store provides practical storage.

The inviting living room continues the cottage's rustic charm with more exposed beams and a beautiful multi-fuel stove set against an exposed brick backdrop-an ideal spot for relaxing evenings.

Upstairs, you'll find two spacious double bedrooms, each with characterful features and idyllic views over the surrounding landscape. The family bathroom with underfloor heating includes a paneled bath with shower over, WC, wash basin, and a heated towel rail, along with a built-in cupboard housing the boiler. Exposed brickwork on the landing adds to the home's traditional appeal.

From the landing, a door leads outside where a charming bridge crosses over to a private patio area-perfect for your morning coffee. Straight ahead lies a well-stocked orchard with fruit trees including raspberry, apple, pear, and plum, alongside a greenhouse and raised vegetable beds. To the right, there is access to a lawned garden bordered by mature shrubs and leading to a summer house with power and light-ideal for a home office having internet, hobby room or peaceful retreat.

The property is double glazed throughout and also boasts driveway parking for two vehicles, a wood store, and a separate outbuilding equipped with plumbing for a washer/dryer, lighting and a water supply. With its South Lakeland feel and stunning views, this enchanting cottage offers a rare opportunity to enjoy countryside living with modern comforts and timeless character.
