Property Overview: Rosewood is situated in a rural location, yet it remains conveniently close to Kendal. Known as the "Gateway to the Lake District," the market town provides easy access to both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks. The M6 motorway and the mainline railway station at Oxenholme ensure quick travel, with London reachable in just under three hours. Kendal's town centre offers a library, supermarket, churches, banks, and medical practices, along with specialist artisan providers and small businesses. Nearby, there is a leisure centre with a swimming pool, and The Brewery Arts Centre, a renowned venue for theatre, cinema, music, and cultural events.

Stepping through the front door, you are greeted by a large entrance porch adorned with exposed brick and beams, and a window with a deep sill that adds to the rustic charm. This leads into the spacious entrance hall, featuring stairs to the first floor and a door to the attached garage. A further door opens into the inner hall, which includes useful storage cupboards and provides access to two bedrooms and a shower room.
