Brimming with character and ready for a complete transformation, 29 Park Road is a charming cottage with huge potential, set in a prime position overlooking the recreational fields and towards the picturesque hills of Dallam Park.
Now in need of full renovation, this property offers a fantastic blank canvas for those seeking to create their dream home. Whether you are an experienced renovator or an inspired first-time buyer, this is a rare chance to blend period charm with modern style, entirely to your own taste.
The accommodation is generous and versatile. The ground floor currently includes a double-fronted living room with a log burner and original features, two formal sitting rooms, and a bright kitchen area connected to a high-ceilinged, multi-functional room enjoying impressive open views of the garden and surrounding countryside. Modern-style kitchen units with integrated appliances remain in place, along with access to a pantry and a large utility room. From here, a door leads to the secure rear garden - a space with real potential for landscaping and outdoor entertaining once complete.
Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and a bright shower room. Many original details remain, hinting at the home's history and providing inspiration for a sensitive restoration. The rear garden enjoys uninterrupted views across the recreational fields and towards Dallam Park - a stunning backdrop for al fresco dining and relaxation.
The property offers excellent development potential, subject to the usual planning consents, with the opportunity to convert the existing property into two separate dwellings - a charming one-bedroom cottage and a spacious three-bedroom home. This presents a unique prospect for buyers seeking to create bespoke living spaces or explore rental/investment opportunities.
Milnthorpe is a vibrant large village with excellent amenities, including schools for all ages within walking distance, doctors' surgeries, dental practices, a pharmacy, vets, independent shops, pubs, cafés, and a supermarket. The M6 is just 10 minutes away, and a regular bus service connects Lancaster to Keswick, making it ideal for both commuting and leisure.
This is more than just a property - it is a project with incredible potential in one of South Cumbria's most desirable locations.
