## Description

The apartment was built by Mr Keith Dudson, a local NHBC registered builder of sound repute. Sand Croft leads from the foot of Fell Lane just beyond the Sandgate bus station and hence within a short walk of the day-to-day facilities which the town centre offers - varied shops, supermarkets, banks, hotels, primary and secondary schools, churches, etc. For those for whom access is important, Penrith has a West Coast Main Line railway station and the M6 is just a mile away at Junction 40.

This is an excellent opportunity for those seeking an easily-run and conveniently located apartment.
