Property description

Location: Natland is an attractive and picturesque village situated to the south of the Market Town of Kendal set around an open green with church, primary school, shop and post office, and with good communications for visiting the Lake District & Yorkshire Dales National parks. The mainline railway station at Oxenholme is a short drive away from where you can be in London in under 3 hours.



Leave Kendal on Burton Road and proceed past Asda and The Westmorland General Hospital. Take the first turning right at the top of the hill, signposted Natland, onto Oxenholme Lane and follow the lane down to the bottom and the Village Green. The property is tucked away off the green behind the Village Hall. Proceed over the Village Hall car park and continue through the narrow entrance, turning immediately onto the walled drive and The Orchard is the second property on your right.  

Description: This splendid conversion created and completed by the vendors, is in a discreet position bordering open fields to the rear and enjoying uninterrupted views to the distant Lakeland fells, yet only a few steps away from the heart of the village with its green, primary school, Church, Post Office and Village Hall. Designed and finished to a high standard and specification with the 20' living room and 20' dining kitchen balancing well with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, downstairs WC and utility.



There is plenty of parking on the level driveway and the gardens have been landscaped to the front with the lawned rear garden offering the new owners an opportunity to create the outside space to suit their own needs. An ideal property especially suitable to those seeking a family home or for early retirement in Lakeland. Come and along and see if you agree.
