OVERVIEW
Having outstanding open views across the Lyth Valley towards Whitbarrow and Lakeland mountains, Wedgwood is a versatile three bedroom property with excellent potential and no onward chain. The original house has a lovely dual aspect lounge with stunning views as does the dining room. The kitchen is to the rear of the property with access to a utility area and porch. On the first floor are two good sized bedrooms, again with views and a shower room. The accommodation has been extended at first floor level over the garage creating a useful guest suite or annexe for a dependent relative – again there are lovely views. Externally, the property sits centrally on the plot with well tended mature gardens to the front and rear. Sweeping lawns and well planned borders frame the views at the front and there are mature trees and veg beds at the rear. Rarely do properties of this nature become available in Levens and a viewing is recommended.
Levens is a popular village on the edge of the Lake District National Park. Offering excellent road links to Milnthorpe and Kendal, the village has a local shop, primary school and is on a bus route.
