Property description

Description: Standing in an elevated location number 50 Lound Road enjoys an open aspect to the front across to the river Kent. Those view will begin to appreciate the excellent attention to detail and programme of works that the current owner has undertaken from the minute they open the wrought iron gate and ring the door bell. Then on entering the hall with its warm and welcoming atmosphere together with the tasteful decoration that runs throughout the house it will become apparent the owner is an interior designer. The property has over the last ten years undergone a total renovation from the new roof at the top of the house down to the basement on the lower ground floor, including re-wiring, central heating system, double glazed sliding sash windows, throughout repointing of the stone work and traditional lime render to the gable wall. The accommodation is laid out over four full floors with an excellent family/living/dining kitchen, cloaks and store having been created in the basement, two reception rooms and a utility room on the entrance level, two double bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom on the first floor, with a third double bedroom and the master bedroom with its mood lighting and en-suite shower room on the second floor. To complete the picture at the rear is parking for one car together with a private walled paved courtyard which provides secure off road parking and space for entertaining.  

Location: From Kendal Town Centre proceed along Aynam Road and continue onto Lound Road and number 50 can be found on your left just after the turning into Lound Street overlooking the river Kent and opposite K Village. A private access lane from Lound Street leads to the private parking area and the courtyard to the rear of the property.
