Windermere Road, Kendal

Occupying an elevated position on the highly sought-after Windermere Road, this beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached family home enjoys an enviable setting with exceptional views and superb access to the Lake District. From the front, the elevated position allows far-reaching views towards Benson Knott and the Lakeland Fells beyond, while to the rear, rolling green fields with grazing sheep create a wonderfully peaceful rural backdrop. The property is ideally placed for easy access into the heart of the Lake District via Plumgarths Roundabout, while Kendal town centre and a wide range of local amenities are just a short distance away.

A welcoming front porch opens into the bright entrance hall, where a staircase rises to the first floor. To the left is the inviting living room, a cosy retreat centred around an attractive open fireplace with tiled surround. An expansive bay window fills the room with natural light and perfectly frames the elevated views towards Benson Knott and the distant Lakeland Fells, creating a wonderful focal point and a constant reminder of the beautiful surroundings.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the contemporary dining kitchen, a generous and sociable space designed perfectly for both family life and entertaining. There is ample room for formal dining, while a central island provides a natural gathering point. The modern fitted kitchen features sleek navy wall and base units complemented by crisp white granite worktops, together with a range of integrated appliances including a dishwasher, four-ring induction hob with extractor, built-in oven, grill and microwave oven complete with an inset sink with drainer. Glazed French doors flood the room with natural light and open directly onto the rear patio and garden beyond.

A useful utility room sits to the side of the kitchen and is fitted with wall units and worktops, together with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. It also provides excellent practical storage for coats, shoes and everyday household essentials. From here, a convenient shower room is accessed, fitted with a WC, wash hand basin and walk-in shower cubicle with panelled walls.

Ascending to the first floor, the principal bedroom is a generous double room, with another impressive bay window perfectly framing the elevated front-facing views. Bedroom two is a further spacious double bedroom enjoying a peaceful rear aspect over the garden and across the adjoining green fields, where occasional grazing sheep add to the idyllic rural outlook. Accessed directly from bedroom two, a thoughtfully created hobby space provides an exciting and versatile additional space. Featuring a Velux window, useful under-eaves storage and plenty of floor space, this flexible area could lend itself to a home office, hobby room, reading space or additional occasional accommodation.

Bedroom three is positioned at the front of the property and is a versatile single room, equally suited to a child's bedroom, study or home office. The family bathroom is stylishly appointed with a four-piece suite comprising a tiled bath with centrally positioned wall-mounted taps, WC, wash hand basin and walk-in shower with sliding glass door. A chrome heated towel radiator and useful cupboard housing the boiler complete the room.

Outside, the rear garden is an exceptional feature of the property. Enjoying a desirable south westerly aspect, the garden captures the afternoon and evening sun and provides a wonderful setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing while enjoying the idyllic surrounding and sunsets. A paved patio leads onto a generous lawn bordered by an attractive stone wall, with a gate providing direct access into the fields beyond. The surrounding countryside offers wonderful walking opportunities, with routes leading towards The Scar and Kendal Golf Club, meaning beautiful countryside walks can be enjoyed virtually from the doorstep. An external outhouse provides useful additional storage.

To the front, the property benefits from off-road parking and an elevated position that makes the most of the stunning outlook. Combining generous and versatile accommodation with a superb contemporary dining kitchen, wonderful outdoor space and truly impressive views, 142 Windermere Road offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a home with a peaceful setting while remaining exceptionally convenient for Kendal and the wider Lake District. This is a home that perfectly combines comfort, practicality and an enviable Lakeland lifestyle.
