Description

This is an amazing, unique three-bed detached home, with incredible views over Kendal and onwards to the Lakeland Fells. Built into the side of a rock shelf, the internal accommodation is spacious, light filled, and well presented throughout. Built in 1995, the current owners have modernised the interior with luxury bathrooms, wonderful room settings, and just installed new flooring and carpets throughout. You will also find a generously sized garden, parkings bay for two vehicles, hardwood double glazing and gas central heating.

The design of the house uses the rock shelf as it's inspiration, with accommodation descending down multiple levels from the street level access, and each room makes full use of the incredible views with front and side facing windows. You enter into a welcoming hallway, and at this level you find the first of two stylish bathrooms and the first of three double bedrooms. Descending down a few steps you arrive at a large living room with dining potential, and this sits alongside a fitted kitchen. Down the turning stairs to the lower level you come to two further double bedrooms, a second bathroom, and a bright landing which leads out the balcony, wrapping around the house and leading to the garden. Throughout the home there are plantation blinds covering each of the windows and brand new carpeting that flows through all the rooms, with runners on the stairs, creating a coordinated and contemporary look.

The house is found on Queens Road, one of Kendal's most desirable residential areas, ideally located for enjoying the town's many local amenities. The Lake District National Park is a short drive away, as is the M6 and the main West Coast rail line at Oxenholme with connections to London and Glasgow. There is something in the house for everyone and it will suit a wide range of buyers from families to downsizers & upsizers, as well as retirees and second home buyers. Take the virtual tour and arrange to view with Hunters.
