Property description

Location: This interesting Victorian property built in 1868 and now sub-divided into four individual residences is situated on the south side of Greenside on the outskirts of The Market Town of Kendal and is approached from the Town Centre by way of Allhallows Lane and Beast Banks which run into Greenside. The entrance to Number 9 is situated in a private drive with its own parking on the left hand side of the road, and is the second turning after Bankfield.  

Description: This fine and prestigious family house forms the centre portion of what is also known as "Ghyll Close". Originally a substantial detached house and perhaps one of the most impressive in the town "Ghyll Close" was built in 1868 for a local Quaker woollen merchant Charles Lloyd Braithwaite & his wife Sarah Wilson and was subsequently divided in later years into four substantial family homes. The present owners have in recent years with care and attention to detail, sympathetically restored and updated the property creating a most welcoming home that offers 21st century living in a period setting.The gardens have been landscaped and a new garage built and with no upward chain and early possession available, the next step is an appointment to view.

Note: All the original sash windows have been reconditioned and draught proofed by Ventrolla.
