Park House, Whittington

Set in the heart of the picturesque village of Whittington, Park House is a charming Grade II listed semi-detached property offering generous living accommodation, original period features, and an exciting opportunity for modernisation. This elegant home presents the ideal canvas for a new owner to update to their own tastes, creating a unique countryside residence full of character and potential.

Whittington is a quintessential Lune Valley village, steeped in history and surrounded by beautiful countryside. Just a short drive away from the popular town of Kirkby Lonsdale, known for its independent shops, cafés, schools, and scenic river walks. The village is well-placed for access to the Yorkshire Dales, Lake District, and nearby towns such as Lancaster and Kendal via the A65 and M6.

Step into a welcoming entrance hall, leading into the main living areas. To the right, the living room features a fireplace with tile surround and a door opening directly outside– perfect for relaxed evenings and enjoying the garden.

Further along the hallway, the dining room offers an inviting space for entertaining, with natural light streaming in through front-facing windows.

At the rear, the kitchen is fitted with base units, tiled worktops, a one-and-a-half sink and drainer, two Bosch ovens, and two four-ring hobs. A walk-in pantry provides storage, while steps lead down to a handy utility room with additional cabinetry, worktop space, and plumbing for a washing machine and dryer. A separate W.C. and access to the garden are also located here.

Upstairs, a split-level landing leads first to the family bathroom, a generous space complete with a roll-top bath, corner shower, pedestal sink, W.C., and two useful airing/storage cupboards.

The main first floor landing gives access to four bedrooms. Bedroom one is a double room with front aspect views and its own shower room with dressing area. Bedrooms two and three are also double rooms, while bedroom four is a single – ideal as a nursery or study.

To the rear, the property enjoys a delightful lawn garden, bordered by mature planting and flowers. A gravelled parking area provides off-street parking, and there is a garage for additional storage or vehicle use.

While Park House is perfectly functional as it stands, it is now ready for sympathetic modernisation, offering scope to enhance and tailor this beautiful home to modern living standards while preserving its historic charm.
