Description

Guide Price £395,000 - £425,000.

Prospect House is an exceptionally well-presented double-fronted character home, ideally situated in the heart of the thriving market town of Kirkby Stephen.

Located on the northern edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Kirkby Stephen is a vibrant and well-connected market town offering an excellent range of amenities alongside outstanding access to some of the country's most spectacular countryside. Approximately ten miles from Junction 38 of the M6 motorway, the town provides convenient links to Kendal, Penrith, Appleby and the Lake District National Park. The renowned Settle–Carlisle Railway is close by, while the famous Coast-to-Coast walking route passes through the town. Residents benefit from a highly regarded primary school and grammar school, a selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and traditional pubs, together with healthcare facilities, a weekly outdoor market and a long-established agricultural auction mart.

The property offers spacious and beautifully appointed home arranged over two floors. A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone, leading through to a dining room and an impressive open-plan living room that flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining area. Double patio doors open directly onto the garden, creating an ideal space for both everyday family living and entertaining, while a convenient cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

To the first floor, the property's character continues with three double bedrooms, with a modern family bathroom.

Externally, Prospect House enjoys a delightful enclosed garden with an attractive, low-maintenance patio, providing the perfect setting for outdoor dining and relaxation. A detached outbuilding offers excellent versatility and could make an ideal workshop, home office or, subject to the necessary planning consents, be converted into a self-contained annexe. The outbuilding also benefits from its own generous private garden area, which could be separated from the main house to create a more independent space, or simply used to enhance the existing garden.

Combining character, generous living space and a highly desirable location, Prospect House would make a wonderful family home, an idyllic holiday retreat or an attractive investment opportunity.
