Full Details for 3 Bedroom Cottage for sale in Kendal, LA8 :
Location: Brigsteer is a small village nestling on the easterly side of the Lyth Valley and can be found from the market town of Kendal by taking the Brigsteer Road out of town and proceeding by way of Scout Scar. Drop down into the village and take the first turning left by the popular Wheatsheaf Inn. The shared driveway for Kell Cottage is the first one on your left after about 100 yds, the two parking spaces for the cottage are immediately on your right as you turn in.
Description: Kell Cottage is a delightful white painted cottage with the most charming hidden cottage garden. Walking up the garden path sets the scene, then step inside this pretty village home and be delighted by the warmth and character that welcomes you. The present owner has with care and attention to detail extended the original layout creating a splendid bedroom with en-suite shower room that complements the two further bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor, and the dining kitchen and sitting room on the ground floor. Located in the heart of the village the cottage faces west with the principal rooms and the garden enjoying views across to Whitbarrow Scar. There is private parking for two cars and a well tended private cottage garden in which to sit and enjoy the sun from morning onwards through to the splendid sunsets over the scar. The property is in good condition and was fully decorated when extended in 2013.
Note: Kell Cottage will make an ideal home for those seeking a permanent home to live in, for early retirement or even for holidays - however a covenant on the cottage does not allow for the owners to run a commercial holiday letting business.
