Nestled in the heart of the historic market town of Kirkby Stephen, Bayleaf Cottage is a beautifully presented semi-detached property offering a perfect blend of traditional charm and modern living.
Kirkby Stephen is ideally located just ten miles from Junction 38 of the M6 motorway, providing excellent access to Kendal, Penrith, Appleby, and the Lake District National Park. The renowned Settle to Carlisle railway line is close by, while the popular Coast to Coast and Lady Anne’s Way walking routes pass through the town. The area is well-served by highly regarded primary and grammar schools, a range of independent shops, welcoming pubs and restaurants, places of worship, a doctor’s surgery, a weekly outdoor market, and an agricultural auction mart—highlighting the vibrant and self-sufficient nature of this picturesque community.
Bayleaf Cottage is a turnkey home that has been thoughtfully refurbished and maintained to a high standard. The accommodation includes two generous reception rooms, a well-appointed kitchen diner, utility room, three spacious double bedrooms, and a contemporary family bathroom featuring a sauna—offering both comfort and luxury.
Externally, the property benefits from low-maintenance patio areas to the front and rear. The private rear courtyard includes a BBQ area, a raised patio ideal for outdoor seating, and an external water tap. This space is also accessible via a rear lane, offering convenient entry and exit.
While the property does not include private parking, ample safe off-road parking is available nearby.
This versatile home is ideally suited to a range of buyers, including first-time purchasers, those seeking a holiday retreat, buy-to-let investors, or downsizers looking for a stylish and low-maintenance residence in a thriving community.
