Castle Crescent, Kendal, LA9

OVERVIEW

Within walking distance of the town centre, train station and riverside walks, this period three storey home is full of character features and available with no onward chain. The current owners have retained and enhanced many of the features with some the original sash windows having shutters and window seats, the wide floorboards have been exposed and there are character fireplaces. A lovely dining room has been added at the rear with bi fold doors and rooflights along with a ground floor WC. Two of the three bedrooms are good sized doubles and there is an impressive house bathroom with four piece suite. Located close to St Georges Church, the residents of Castle Crescent use the green space at the front for children to play and to socialise with neighbours.
