Description
GUIDE PRICE: £1,100,000 - £1,200,000. Originally built in the 1890s, Kirkstone forms the principal part of this impressive attached residence, set within mature gardens and grounds extending to approximately one and a half acres. Having been a much-loved family home for many years, the property offers an abundance of space and a wealth of character, providing comfortable and versatile accommodation throughout. The impressive sitting room is a particularly attractive feature, with its vaulted ceiling, York stone floor and log burner, while the adjoining family room provides an equally welcoming space, complete with a small library nook and further log burner. Together, these rooms create comfortable and highly usable living areas for family life and entertaining. The kitchen provides ample space for a breakfast table and is equipped with a selection of appliances. A separate utility room and downstairs cloakroom add further practicality. For more formal occasions, there is a separate dining room, with an archway leading through to the entrance hall and stairs rising to the first floor. In total, the property offers seven bedrooms, one of which is currently utilised as a study and is fitted with a desk and shelving. There are also two separate bathrooms, making the accommodation particularly well suited to busy family life. Heating is provided via a gas central heating system. Externally, the property benefits from generous parking on the shingle driveway, together with a turning area leading to a brick-paved courtyard, creating an attractive approach and entrance to the property. Situated within this popular and sought-after village, properties of this nature are always highly desirable. Kirkstone is offered with the benefit of no forward chain and vacant possession, providing an excellent opportunity for those seeking a substantial family home in an attractive setting.
