OVERVIEW
Having undergone modernisation and updating in the past couple of years, this semi-detached house has lovely light and bright rooms, contemporary neutral decor and a great layout. Reconfigured to incorporate the garage into living accommodation, the generous ground floor now has a flexible layout - the second sitting room could double as a fourth bedroom and as there is a modern shower room on the ground floor, perfect for guests or dependent relatives. The kitchen has a Scandi feel with clean lines and pale toned units, the view is fantastic over rooftops towards Kendal Castle and the Kentmere Valley and a utility room helps keep the kitchen clutter free. The first floor has three bedrooms, two doubles and a single plus a bathroom.
ACCOMMODATION
Approaching over the well-tended front garden, the lovely magnolia tree and the scrambling wisteria are real delight. A porch space provides room to shed wet coats and shoes before entering into the main hallway. From here, oak doors lead to the inner hallway and lounge and stairs to the first floor. The nicely proportioned lounge has a large picture window ensuring lots of light even on a gloomy day and a Gazco gas flame effect woodburner provides a focal point. The adjoining kitchen diner is also light and bright with windows running the full length and views over rooftops towards the distant Kentmere Valley. Modern units are fitted with contrasting oak handles, slim profile quartz style worktops and easy to maintain splashbacks. There is a gas hob with filter hood above, an electric oven, integrated dishwasher and space for a fridge freezer. A door leads to the terrace, perfect for al fresco dining. A larder style cupboard under the stairs has been retained with shelving and a sensor light.

The shower room has also undergone an update and now fitted with a stylish suite and contemporary tiling.

Once on the first floor, the property retains the feeling of light and airiness with a window on the landing. Oak doors lead to the three bedrooms and bathroom. The double bedroom at the rear of the house has an outstanding view over rooftops towards Kendal Castle and Kentmere, the second double at the front has a built in double wardrobe and the third, single bedroom also has a built-in cupboard. Fully tiled, the main bathroom has a three piece suite with mixer attachment over the bath and there is a heated towel rail and radiator.

Externally, the property does not disappoint. A generous driveway provides off road parking for a number of cars and there is a well-stocked front garden with colour throughout the year. Access at the side leads into the rear garden. Over two levels with steps connecting the two spaces, the rear garden has an upper level terrace and lower lawn. The terrace is also accessed from the kitchen diner and perfect for outdoor dining and relaxing. The lower lawn is edged with a rockery, shrub borders, fruit trees and lovely peonies and azaleas.
