5 Empsom Road, Kendal, LA9 5PR

5 Empsom Road is situated in a popular residential position just off the sought-after area of Kendal Green, within easy reach of Kendal town centre and the surrounding countryside. This two-bedroom mid-terraced bungalow offers well-proportioned single-level accommodation, a small driveway providing off-road parking, and gardens to both the front and rear. While the property could benefit from some modernisation, it presents an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to personalise the accommodation to their own tastes and requirements. With its manageable layout and convenient location, the property would particularly appeal to those looking to downsize, enjoy retirement close to local amenities, or buyers seeking a home they can make their own. Offered with no onward chain.

Kendal town centre is just a short distance away and provides a wide range of amenities for everyday life, including supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs and local services. The property is also well placed for access to Windermere Road and the wider Lake District National Park, making it an excellent base for those who enjoy walking, cycling and exploring the surrounding countryside. Kendal also benefits from a range of leisure and healthcare facilities, while Oxenholme Lake District railway station is within easy reach, providing connections to destinations further afield.

Entrance to the property is through the front door into the entrance porch, where a side aspect window provides natural light and a useful storage cupboard offers space for coats, shoes and everyday items. A door leads through into the living room, which acts as the central hub of the bungalow and provides access to the kitchen, bedrooms and wet room. The room benefits from a front aspect window and a wall-mounted electric fire, creating a comfortable reception space.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, complemented by tiled splashbacks and work surfaces. There is space for a washing machine and freestanding cooker, while the sink and drainer are positioned beneath the rear aspect window. Additional space is available for a fridge freezer, and a rear door provides direct access to the outside space.

Bedroom one is a well-proportioned double bedroom with a front aspect window. The room benefits from excellent built-in storage, with triple fitted wardrobes extending across the rear wall, together with two further double cupboards providing additional storage. The property's Worcester boiler is also housed within the bedroom's storage.

Bedroom two is positioned to the rear of the property and benefits from a rear aspect window. This single bedroom would also lend itself well to use as a home office, hobby room or occasional guest bedroom, depending on the requirements of the new owner.

The wet room comprises a shower with handheld attachment, WC and wash hand basin, together with a rear aspect window providing natural light.

Externally, the property benefits from gardens to both the front and rear, as well as off-road parking. To the front, a flagged pathway leads to the entrance door alongside the driveway, while a flagged patio area sits in front of the living room window. A variety of established plants and shrubs provide greenery and definition to the boundaries.

To the rear, there is a flagged patio area with steps leading through the different levels of the garden. The space offers an excellent opportunity for the new owner to develop and landscape according to their own preferences, whether creating a low-maintenance garden or a more peaceful outdoor seating area. Gates also provide access to the shared right of way serving the bungalows.

This is a great opportunity to acquire a two-bedroom bungalow in a convenient and well-established area of Kendal. The property's single-level accommodation, off-road parking and proximity to Kendal town centre make it particularly suited to those looking to downsize or enjoy a more manageable home, whilst the surrounding amenities and easy access to the Lake District provide an appealing lifestyle for the new owner. With no onward chain, early viewing is highly recommended.
