14 West Street, Kendal, Cumbria, LA9 5QL

A charming Victorian end-terraced stone and slate home, ideally positioned on the southern side of the market town of Kendal, within easy walking distance of local shops and the picturesque River Kent. This characterful property offers generously proportioned accommodation including two bedrooms, a study/dressing room, two reception rooms and a fitted kitchen, together with a south-facing rear yard and garage. The property also benefits from gas central heating with period-style cast radiators throughout, complementing the many original features retained within the home. Retaining much of its period charm, the property provides a warm and welcoming atmosphere. An early viewing is highly recommended.

A front door opens into the entrance porch, complete with useful coat hooks, before leading into the hallway where stairs rise to the first floor and doors open into the reception rooms.

The living room is a delightful space, featuring a bay window with an aspect to the front and a feature fireplace with tiled inset and open fire, framed by a wooden mantel. Built-in storage cupboards sit neatly within the fireside alcoves, while period details including a ceiling rose, picture rail and decorative coving enhance the room's charm.

The second reception room enjoys both rear and side aspects and features a further fireplace with tiled inset, gas fire and slate hearth. Additional storage is provided by a built-in pine cupboard within the alcove and a practical understairs cupboard, while a period pulley laundry rack adds both character and practicality to the space.

To the rear of the property, the fitted kitchen is appointed with a range of wall and base units with complementary work surfaces incorporating an inset sink and drainer and coordinating part tiled walls. Integrated appliances include a double Neff oven and four-ring gas hob with concealed extractor above, alongside plumbing for a washing machine and space for a fridge/freezer. A window overlooks the south-facing rear yard and a door provides direct external access.

On the first floor, the landing provides access to the loft, bedrooms and bathroom.

Bedroom one is a spacious double room with front and side aspects, a feature fireplace and a deep built-in storage cupboard. Bedroom two is positioned at the rear and is accessed via a useful study/dressing room, making it a versatile space for home working or additional storage.

The bathroom is fitted with a three-piece heritage-style suite comprising a freestanding claw-foot cast iron bath with shower over, a vintage-style wash hand basin and WC, complemented by part tiled walls, a radiator and a window providing natural light.

Externally, the property benefits from a south-facing rear yard giving access to the garage, which is fitted with double doors, power, lighting and a workbench. To the front, a small flower bed adds to the property's kerb appeal.

Combining period charm, flexible living space and a highly convenient location on an open corner position at the junction of Park Street and West Street, 14 West Street presents an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to create a truly special home. Early viewing is strongly advised.
