Ash View, Mealbank, Kendal, Cumbria, LA8

OVERVIEW

Nestled in a semi-rural location, yet just minutes from supermarkets, schools and amenities, this deceptive period house will appeal to a range of buyers. The character and charm of the property has been enhanced by the current owners with calm decor tones and sash style double glazed windows throughout, the period style internal doors have been retained along with the attractive staircase. Both reception rooms have woodburners, perfect for chilly winters evenings, and there is a well fitted kitchen. The three double bedrooms are over the first and second floors and there is a stylish bathroom. The rear garden has been landscaped creating spaces for play and recreation along with dining and cooking. A lovely period property set within a cluster of similar properties alongside a small light industry development of craftsmen and a community art store.
