Kendal is a popular market town in the South Lakeland District of Cumbria, offering a mix of amenities and a desirable location. The property is situated on Union Street, which is within walking distance of Kendal town centre, providing convenient access to shops, restaurants, and other services. The proximity to several well-regarded schools, such as Kendal Nursery School and St Thomas’s C of E Primary School, adds to its family-friendly appeal. Train travel is also easily accessible with Kendal train station being within a reasonable distance. However, the plot size is very small, lacking any significant outdoor space.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in generally fair condition, although some modernisation would likely enhance its appeal. The kitchen and bathroom show signs of wear and tear, and some cosmetic updates would improve the overall presentation. The property does however benefit from a traditional fireplace, which is a desirable feature for many buyers.

Considering the list price of £160,000, the average price per square foot in the area (£265) and the condition of the property, the price seems reasonable. However, it is important to note that the average house price in the area is significantly higher (£475,979), suggesting that this property may be priced competitively due to its size and condition. The lack of plot size is a significant drawback and will likely impact the overall value.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
