Prospect House is a superb property set in the centre of the bustling market town of Kirkby Stephen.
Kirkby Stephen is just ten miles from junction 38 of the M6 motorway and is well placed for Kendal, Penrith, Appleby and the Lake District. The scenic Settle to Carlisle Railway is on the doorstep and the Coast to Coast and Lady Ann footpaths run through. Kirkby Stephen has highly regarded primary and grammar schools as well as a good range of shops, restaurants & pubs, church & chapel and doctor's surgery. There is still a weekly outdoor market and an agricultural auction mart.
Prospect House is a traditional period property with high ceilings, deep skirting boards and beautiful character features including coving, cornicing and plate racks. The property offers spacious accommodation with potential to further develop.
On the ground floor the entrance hall leads to a sitting room with bay window and a family sized dining kitchen with sliding doors to another, front reception room. There is a rear hall with turned staircase and utility/ cloakroom. Upstairs are three bedrooms, two large doubles and a single room and a family bathroom. There is a large loft with good head room should any one which to increase accommodation by converting this space.
