Location

West Street is a popular residential location surrounded by traditional stone-built terraces to the southern edge of Kendal. The property is conveniently located to Dean Gibson Primary School, Kirkbie Kendal Secondary School and Kendal College.

Description

The property is approached via on-road parking, with gated pedestrian access alongside a walled forecourt leading to the front door. The entrance hall is inviting and retains original coving, corbels, and a recessed arch, with doors leading to two reception rooms and stairs to the first floor.

The front lounge is a cosy reception room featuring a bay window that floods the space with natural light, a central chimney breast with a (disconnected) gas fire, and arched alcoves on either side for displaying books and ornaments. The second reception room spans the full width at the rear, providing a generous family dining and seating area. A hearth offers space for a freestanding electric fire, or the potential for a gas fire to be re-instated, with built-in cupboards either side and a large cupboard beneath the stairs for additional storage.

The adjacent kitchen is fitted with wooden storage cupboards and a contrasting two-sided worktop, incorporating a one-and-a-half sink drainer with mixer tap, a four-ring gas hob with extractor hood, and an electric oven/grill below. An external door leads to the rear courtyard, and an opening connects the kitchen to the utility, which provides additional cupboards and space for white goods.

Stairs from the hall lead to the first-floor landing, giving access to two bedrooms and the bathroom. The master bedroom is a spacious double across the full width at the front, featuring a cast iron fireplace and space for freestanding wardrobes and drawers. The second bedroom is a single with space for storage, while the bathroom is fitted with a bath with wall-mounted electric shower, WC, and pedestal wash basin.

Concealed stairs with storage beneath lead to the developed loft room, with eaves storage offering further practical space.

Outside, the walled rear courtyard provides space for a table, chairs, and potted plants, with access to a secure workshop equipped with electric light and power, and an open storage area.
