Property Description
Sale of a well presented four bedroom detached property located on Collin Hill, and positioned in a quiet cul-de-sac on the southside of the town. The property sits on a corner plot with lovely gardens to three sides, and from the rear of the house there are extensive views over Kendal and the surrounding countryside. There are many features that will appeal, with one highlight being the excellent studio that has been built in what was half of the original garage, complete with a cosy multifuel burner and views of the garden. The internal accommodation consists of two floors, with the ground floor being split into a lower and an upper level. There is a living room, cloakroom and utility, kitchen diner, family bathroom, and three bedrooms, whilst to the first floor you will find the master bedroom and ensuite. Externally there are well kept gardens to 3 sides and in the rear garden there is a sense of complete privacy with the mature planting. The studio room is accessed from the raised patio, and there is a good sized driveway and a single garage. Ideally suited to up-sizers looking for a spacious property for the family, perhaps retirees attracted by the generous garden spaces, and hobbyists who will be able to utilise the studio room to it's full potential.

Kendal's vibrant market town centre is less than a mile away, providing an extensive range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, leisure facilities and cultural attractions. Families are well served by a wide choice of schools within easy reach. Nearby primary schools include Vicarage Park CE Primary School, Dean Gibson Catholic Primary School and Ghyllside Primary School, while secondary education is provided by the well-regarded Kirkbie Kendal School and The Queen Katherine School. Kendal is also home to Kendal College, offering a wide range of further education and vocational courses. You have excellent rail and road links, and the Lake District National Park is just a short drive away.
