8 bed detached house for sale

Mount Pleasant House, Mount Pleasant, Kendal LA9

Mount Pleasant House is an impressive Georgian Property located in Greenside, one of Kendal’s most desirable addresses. Originally built as one house, the property was separated into two grand apartments some years ago and each have had a great deal of investment to keep them in good condition and helping to maintain and restore many of the original Georgian features.

The property is ideally suited to buyers seeking a quality, spacious home that also comes with an income, living in one part of the building and letting out the other. Alternatively, it could be suited to intergenerational living, perhaps with extended families taking residency in their own private apartment alongside the main home. The larger apartment, Apt 1, has been let out most recently for £1,450 while Apt. 1A has been achieving in the region of £1,150pcm, but both could do better in a rising rental market. Alternatively, with the four rooms in Apt 1A all being ensuite, there is scope for generating more income by Airbnb or HMO.

Apartment 1 is arranged over two floors, ground and lower level. On the ground level you will find a large lounge, huge kitchen/diner, a WC and shower room and depending on your lifestyle needs, a second reception or a bedroom. Heading downstairs you will find three ensuite bedrooms and a laundry room. There is parking out the front for two vehicles (four including 1A’s allocation) and a spacious Courtyard Garden to the side. There are ornate skirtings and architraves and shuttered windows within the property, and all the room sizes are generous.

Apartment 1A is accessed from the back of the building and from the ground floor entrance there is a flight of stairs rising to the first floor living accommodation. Here you will find a living room, an office, the kitchen and a large ensuite bedroom. Ascending the stairs to the second floor you find three more bedrooms and two further bathrooms. This apartment has two of the parking spaces to the front.
