Bowdon, Kirkland, CA26
Dormer Bungalow
Description
Quietly nestled in the rural village of Kirkland, just moments from the shores of Ennerdale Water and the breathtaking landscapes of the Ennerdale Valley, Bowdon is a detached dormer bungalow occupying a generous plot with mature gardens and endless possibilities. Having been in the same ownership for many years, the property has been lovingly maintained throughout and presents an exciting opportunity for a new owner to modernise, extend, or reconfigure the space to suit their needs.
The setting is particularly special, peaceful and private, yet within close proximity to local towns and the Lake District National Park. With flexible internal accommodation and substantial outdoor space, the property is ideally suited to families, relocators, or those seeking a quieter pace of life without compromising on accessibility.
The accommodation is currently arranged with an entrance hallway leading to a spacious lounge overlooking the front garden, a separate dining room that could also serve as a fourth bedroom, a good sized kitchen with access to the gardens, a ground floor double bedroom, a bathroom with three piece suite, and a separate WC. Upstairs are two further double bedrooms.
Externally, Bowdon is surrounded by well kept lawned gardens to the front, side and rear, providing plenty of space for children to play, entertaining, or simply enjoying the outdoors. The attached garage and wide side section of the property offer excellent potential for extension or conversion, including the possibility of creating a self-contained annexe for a dependent relative, subject to the necessary approvals. The driveway provides ample offroad parking and completes the picture of a home with both substance and potential, in one of Cumbria’s most desirable rural locations.
