Location

Nestled on a generous plot on the edge of Levens village, this property enjoys a tranquil setting with picturesque views over neighbouring farmland. Despite its peaceful position, it remains conveniently close to the village’s amenities, including a local shop, primary school, Village Hall, church, and traditional public house. The nearby market towns of Kendal and Milnthorpe are just a short drive away, and excellent transport links, including Junction 36 of the M6 motorway, can be reached within 10 minutes, making this an ideal location for both countryside living and easy commuting.

Description

Set back from the road, the property is approached via a gravelled driveway with an EV charging point, offering convenient off-road parking.

A welcoming tiled porch provides a practical space for coats and shoes before leading into the lounge, a warm and characterful retreat ideal for cosy evenings. Featuring an exposed stone alcove, a charming fireplace with wood-burning stove, and painted wooden beams, the room blends rustic charm with modern comfort. A generous understairs cupboard offers excellent storage, while the layout flows naturally through to the kitchen/diner.

The kitchen/diner is the true heart of the home—an inviting open-plan space perfect for both everyday family life and entertaining guests. The dining area, with its exposed stone wall and chimney breast, creates a characterful setting for relaxed meals or gatherings, while the well-equipped kitchen offers a range of modern units, wraparound worktops, and integrated appliances to make cooking a pleasure.

From here, the space extends effortlessly into the conservatory, a bright and versatile room that invites the outdoors in, ideal as a second sitting area, playroom, or a peaceful spot to unwind while enjoying views over the garden.

Upstairs, doors lead to three bedrooms, the bathroom and a separate WC, while a hatch with a drop-down ladder provides access to a large, fully boarded loft, ideal for additional storage.

There are two generous double bedrooms, both offering ample space for freestanding furniture, along with a third single room currently used as a home office, perfect for flexible modern living. The bathroom is fitted with a contemporary two-piece suite, comprising a bath with wall-mounted shower and a pedestal wash basin, while a separate WC with wash basin adds further convenience for busy households.

Outside, the property truly comes into its own, boasting an expansive and beautifully maintained garden. This generous outdoor space is ideal for gardening enthusiasts, featuring established, colourful planted beds alongside a paved patio area—perfect for relaxing and taking in the picturesque surroundings.

Additional benefits include hardstanding for a timber shed and greenhouse, as well as a detached stone-built outbuilding with electric light and power.
