Sandalwood, located on Far Close Drive in Arnside, Cumbria, is a three-bedroom, one-bathroom detached property presented as a renovation project. The property’s listing highlights its elevated position, scenic views of the Kent Estuary, and proximity to walking trails. The images showcase a property requiring complete modernisation. Interiors feature dated fixtures and fittings, including extensive wood panelling, patterned carpets, and original kitchen and bathroom suites. The style is consistent with a 1960s or 1970s build. While the existing structure appears sound, significant renovation would be needed to bring it up to modern standards.

The property’s significant advantage is its generous land, which includes a sizable garden featuring mature plantings, well-maintained hedges and lawns, and a stone pergola. There is also a detached garage.

Arnside itself is a popular village location on the edge of the Kent Estuary. It boasts picturesque surroundings and convenient access to transport links, including Arnside train station. Nearby amenities such as schools (Arnside National Cofe School requires improvement) and shops are readily available although a car is likely needed for convenient access.

Potential buyers should budget accordingly for the extensive renovation work required before the property becomes habitable. Those looking for a project in a beautiful location with substantial land might find this property attractive, although the overall investment will be considerable. The pricing appears competitive for this type of project in the area.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
