Location
Kirkbarrow is a popular residential area located on the southern outskirts of Kendal town centre. The property is ideally positioned within walking distance of local amenities, including a play park, Ghyllside and Vicarage Park Primary Schools, Kendal College, and Kirkbie Kendal Secondary School. The town centre is just a 10-minute walk away, while the A591, providing excellent commuter links, can be reached by car in only a few minutes.
Description
Positioned at the head of the cul-de-sac, the property is approached via a gated driveway with a raised planted bed and hedgerow boundary, offering parking for two vehicles. At the top of the drive sits a detached single garage, providing useful space for motorbikes, bicycles, or general storage.
Upon entering the home, you're welcomed into a vestibule, with stairs directly ahead leading to the first floor and a door to the right opening into the lounge. This spacious, light-filled reception room features a bay window and a gas fire, flanked by recessed alcoves ideal for shelving or display furniture. A practical under-stairs storage cupboard adds convenience, while another door leads through to the kitchen.
The kitchen spans the rear of the property and opens seamlessly into a bright dining room extension, creating a sociable, open-plan space perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with white cabinetry and a three-sided worktop, incorporating a single drainer sink with mixer tap and a four-ring gas hob. An integrated electric oven/grill is included, along with space for an under-counter fridge and dishwasher. At the far end of the kitchen, there is additional room for a large freestanding fridge freezer and extra storage cupboards. The dining area enjoys a large double-glazed window and French doors that open directly onto the rear garden, bringing in an abundance of natural light and easy indoor-outdoor. This area also benefits from a fitted worktop with space and plumbing for a washing machine, along with access to a convenient cloakroom, complete with WC and a vanity wash basin with cabinet storage below.
Upstairs, the landing leads to all three bedrooms and the bathroom. A fitted cupboard extends over the stairs for useful storage, and a ceiling hatch provides access to the loft. There are two similarly sized double bedrooms, each offering contrasting views, one to the front with a bay window and space for wardrobes, and one to the rear with a built-in wardrobe and views over distant fields. The third bedroom is a single, ideal as a child’s room, home office or guest space, with room for a desk and drawers. The bathroom includes a bath with overhead electric shower, WC and wash basin with vanity storage beneath. 
Outside, the surrounding gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to create a variety of spaces for relaxation and alfresco dining. A gently sloping lawn is complemented by stone steps for easy access, bordered by mature hedging and trees that add privacy and greenery. At the lower end of the garden, a separate area is set aside for a shed and greenhouse, ideal for gardening enthusiasts. Adjacent to the dining area, a paved patio provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining and enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Rent-driven metrics

Based on Area rent estimate.

Rent ratio 0.37%
Max investor price (0.8%) £120,125
Target investor price (1%) £96,100
  • Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
  • Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
  • Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
