Property description
Location: The popular and attractive South Lakeland Village of Levens enjoys a thriving community with local shop and village hall, school, churches, public house, playing field and Levens Park on the doorstep. Levens village offers easy access for both the market town of Kendal and nearby Milnthorpe, the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales national parks as well as the M6 motorway.
Situated on the fringe of the village the property can be found by entering the village at the southerly end from the A590. Woodcroft can then be found on your right overlooking open fields.
Description: This attractive detached village property stands on a good sized facing plot that takes full advantage of the splendid far reaching views across the Lyth Valley to the distant Lakeland fells in the north and down the Kent Estuary to the south. The property enjoys a well-planned layout that offers spacious family living. On the ground floor you will find a large entrance hall, cloakroom, three excellent reception rooms, conservatory, recently added atrium porch and a dining kitchen with walk in pantry and utility. To the first floor are four good double bedrooms that enjoy open views, bathroom and shower room. The property has the benefit of a double garage with useful store, a gated driveway providing ample off road parking and turning and good sized landscaped gardens to the front and rear. With no upward chain and vacant possession on completion the next step is an appointment to view.
Note: The current vendors were granted planning permission in 2008 for a single storey front extension which has now lapsed.
