The property

Apple Byrd – Exceptional Value in a Prime Location.

Apple Byrd is a beautifully decorated, light-filled semi-detached home offering three individually styled bedrooms, established gardens, and an extensive driveway with ample off-street parking – perfect for families or groups of friends.

Location is Everything, and Apple Byrd delivers.

Situated within easy walking distance of Kendal’s vibrant town centre, you’ll have a local pub, eateries, takeaways, a corner shop, and Kendal railway station just minutes away.

The station provides direct links to Windermere and Oxenholme (East Coast Mainline) for London and Scotland, making this an ideal base for exploring the Lake District without the premium price tag of Windermere itself.

Windermere is only an 8-mile drive, bypassing Kendal’s centre, so you can enjoy world-class attraction – Windermere Lake Cruises, the World of Beatrix Potter, boutique shops, and fine dining – while benefiting from Kendal’s affordability.

Compared to Windermere’s high property prices, Apple Byrd offers exceptional value without compromising on style or convenience.

Supermarkets, petrol stations, and EV charging points are less than a mile away in the opposite direction.

Inside, the owner's creativity shines through textured wallpapers, curated mirrors, artworks', and soft furnishings, creating a calm, harmonious atmosphere.

Natural light enhances a soothing palette of neutral tones, blending Scandinavian minimalism with Japanese functional elegance.

Film and art lovers will appreciate playful cinematic references throughout the ground floor.

The newly installed kitchen features a central island with stools – a sociable spot for drinks while cooking.

Dine at the large oak table in the living room, then relax on the comfy sofa and chairs, watch TV, or browse the well-stocked bookshelves.

Upstairs, two double bedrooms offer lovely views over the garden and distant fells, while the single bedroom overlooks the front garden.

Outside, the garden wraps around three sides, with the rear offering a peaceful haven of lush lawns and mature fruit trees – perfect for tea or a G/&T with friends.

From Kendal, explore historic castle ruins, the Kendal Museum, Abbott Hall Art Gallery, and The Brewery Arts Centre or theatre, film, and food.

Beyond Windermere, hikes up Scafell Pike, stunning views of Derwentwater, and endless natural beaty await – all from a location that balances convivence, charm, and cost.

Once at the Property: Leave the Car/s at the property and take the train – it’s the smart way to enjoy the Lakes.

You'll avoid the stress of navigating busy road through prime tourist spots and escape the extortionate parking charges that can hit even if you manage to find a space.

From Kendal, you can reach Windermere in minutes, then explore the region with ease.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

KENDAL

Windermere 8 miles.

A historic market town with a fine reputation for shopping, Kendal nestles on the banks of the River Kent and is known as the Southern Gateway to the Lakes. Its old cobbled lanes and byways branch off the attractive main street, and the stone ruins of 12th century Kendal Castle sit perched on a hill with views over the town. Visit The Abbot Hall Art Gallery, its regular collection holding portraits by Kendal born George Romney and works by Turner and Ruskin, with other exhibitions through its links with the Tate. Both Sizergh Castle and Levens Hall with its superb Topiary Garden are nearby, as are limestone escarpments for easy walking, offering thrilling views of the Lakeland Mountains, the Howgills and Morecambe Bay. Kendal itself is ideally placed for exploring South Lakeland, the Yorkshire Dales and beyond. With other attractions such as Kendal Museum and the Museum of Lakeland Life, the fascinating Quaker Tapestry, Lake Windermere and the wider National Park within easy reach, Kendal provides a superb base for a relaxing break.
