Set in an idyllic rural location, The Stable is a beautifully presented end terrace stone converted barn property, which has been developed to balance traditional charm and modern comfort whilst enjoying a highly accessible and well-connected location.The Stable is situated in a highly convenient yet peaceful setting, close to the village of Milnthorpe, offering shops, cafes, a regular market within the market square and health services, all located only a few minutes away. The bustling town of Kendal is within easy reach for a wider selection of amenities and offers excellent transport links with connections at nearby Oxenholme Railway Station, which provides links to the West Coast Mainline, with trains to Manchester, London Euston and Glasgow. The location also enjoys excellent access to the M6 motorway, with Junction 36 being approximately 5 minutes away. Families are well catered for, with a choice of well-regarded primary and secondary schools within Milnthorpe and the surrounding villages.
The property is approached via a shared entrance leading to a generous gravelled driveway, with space for several vehicles. Entered through the over-sized barn door, this space is a welcoming porch with fitted practical storage to one side.
The main reception room exudes character, with a feature stone chimney breast and fireplace with an inset wood burning stove on a stone flagged hearth. Beamed ceilings and dual aspects windows frame the open countryside views. A highlight of the home is a newly fitted kitchen, which offers generous storage with wall and base mounted units. Off the kitchen can be found a utility area providing excellent storage and laundry facilities with a rear personnel access door. A later addition to its original construction is the light-filled garden room, which is predominantly glazed and overlooks the gardens. This area enjoys underfloor heating and is a great additional reception room or sunroom.
The first floor provides the bedroom and bathroom accommodation. The principal bedroom stretches the full width of the property and has exposed beams and an ensuite shower room. A further double bedroom has beautiful views over the open countryside and uses the house bathroom, which offers a jacuzzi bath, shower, WC and wash hand basin. The staircase continues to a third double bedroom set within the roof space, which has the benefit of eaves storage.
The gardens and grounds have been thoughtfully landscaped to complement the rural setting and offer cottage-style gardens. A raised stone terrace with ornamental pond provides a perfect seating area, with an expanse of lawned garden, planted borders and a feature pergola. Beyond the garden are views of open countryside, adding a true sense of space. To the side of the property there are a range of external storage buildings adding practicality, which include a wood store and workshop space.
