Description

Situated to the south of Kendal, easily accessible to the town centre, M6 at junction 36 and Oxenholme railway station, a fantastic opportunity to acquire a most appealing, 4 bed, detached family home, in a quiet rural setting, in generous mature gardens with adjacent field, in all circa 7.69 acres

BEST & FINAL OFFER By Noon on THURSDAY 23rd JULY 2026

Offered to the market with no onward chain, and presented in well-maintained order throughout, albeit now requiring a degree of modernisation and priced accordingly, Furrows End represents an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in this highly desirable and much sought-after location.

Occupying a generous plot extending to approximately 1.52 acres, the property enjoys an enviable position at the head of a quiet country lane with no through traffic. A sweeping private driveway leads through mature, beautifully established landscaped gardens, creating an impressive approach to the house.

To the front of the property is a turning area, while additional parking to the side provides access to a double garage incorporating a workshop/store room with a room above. An additional adjoining workshop offers further potential, although remedial attention to the roof will be required.

Constructed in 1971 by the current owners’ family, the property has been thoughtfully designed in keeping with the character and style of other well-regarded local homes.

The accommodation is both spacious and versatile in its layout. To the ground floor, a front porch with bespoke stained-glass windows and a studded entrance door opens into a vestibule and welcoming reception hall beyond, complete with built-in cloak storage and a downstairs WC. The principal reception room enjoys a dual aspect from front to rear, with French doors opening onto the gardens and a striking inglenook fireplace housing a multifuel stove. Further accommodation includes a separate study, formal dining room, kitchen, and adjoining utility room.

To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, together with a family bathroom and separate shower room.

Beyond the surrounding gardens, the sale also includes an adjoining field extending to approximately 6.17 acres. Positioned along the approach lane, the land is gently sloping, well-drained, and enclosed by established boundaries. Combined with the potential to adapt the workshops into stabling, the property could lend itself perfectly to equestrian use.

Properties offering such a comprehensive package, combining privacy, land, versatility, and a prime location close to Kendal, are seldom available on the open market. Early viewing is therefore highly recommended to fully appreciate all that Furrows End has to offer.
