Set within a generous plot in the rural hamlet of Helsington, on the outskirts of Kendal, Prizet Farmhouse is an impressive stone-built semi-detached home offering substantial and versatile accommodation across two floors. Blending charming period features with modern comforts, this exceptional property is ready for a new owner to move straight in and make it their own.

Surrounded by rolling countryside and enjoying convenient access to Junction 36 of the M6, the historic market town of Kendal and the breathtaking landscapes of the Lake District National Park just 15-20 minutes away, the location perfectly balances rural tranquility with everyday practicality.

Approached through a traditional timber field gate set within mature hedgerows, the property benefits privacy and exudes countryside charm. There is off-road parking for multiple vehicles, access to a garage with an up-and-over door and gated entry to the rear garden.

A spacious log store sits beside the entrance, leading into a bright porch with long glass panes overlooking the driveway. From here, you step into an impressive entrance hall where a staircase rises to a striking open first-floor landing. Above, a statement chandelier with cascading glass orbs creates a dramatic focal point, while natural light streams in from a rear window overlooking the orangery.

To the left of the hallway lies the bright, well-appointed kitchen, enjoying beautiful rear views across green fields towards The Helm. Designed with both style and functionality in mind, it features marble-effect granite worktops with drainer grooves, an inset stainless steel sink, contemporary soft-close base units, glass display cabinetry, a freestanding Bosch fridge, Bosch dishwasher and a four-ring gas hob and cooker with extractor over. There is ample space for a dining table, making it perfect for breakfast and informal family meals.

The kitchen leads to a generous utility room with additional wall and base units, worktops, inset sink, integrated washing machine, boiler and a traditional Sheila Maid. A ground floor shower room with step-up shower cubicle, electric shower and WC sits just off the utility, which also provides direct external access.

Beyond the kitchen is a spacious dining room, again benefiting from stunning rear views; an ideal setting for entertaining and family gatherings. Glazed doors open into the orangery, a delightful space with installed sound system and garden access, perfect for enjoying a quiet cup of tea while taking in the outlook. Sliding glass doors connect seamlessly to the living room.

The living room pays homage to the properties heritage, with exposed wooden ceiling beams and a log burner set within a traditional wrap-around stone fireplace with hearth and mantel extending to a media shelf.

Off the entrance hall are two additional versatile rooms, both ideal as a study/home office, hobby room, and one of which could also pose as a fifth bedroom – offering flexibility to suit modern family life.

Ascending to the spacious landing, the sense of light and openness continues. On the west wing, Bedroom One is a generous double with built-in storage and beautiful rear aspect views. Adjacent is the family bathroom, fitted with a paneled bath with central taps and overhead shower, pedestal wash hand basin, WC, heated towel radiator and tiled walls.

The east wing hosts three further bedrooms. Two are spacious doubles – one enjoying dual rear-facing windows overlooking the orangery, while the fourth is a comfortable smaller double. A second family bathroom at the end of the landing includes a wooden paneled bath with overhead shower, pedestal wash basin, WC, heated towel rail and part-tiled walls. A handy linen cupboard completes the upstairs accommodation.

Externally, Prizet Farmhouse truly comes into its own. The generous garden enjoys uninterrupted countryside views towards The Helm, accompanied by the subtle sound of the nearby River Kent. The grounds include a large lawned area, a flagged terrace, a natural stone-bordered pond, vegetable beds and steps leading to a lower lawn. Vehicle access from the front lane extends to the bottom of the garden, adding practicality to this idyllic setting.

With brand new carpets, a modern kitchen and spacious, flexible living accommodation, Prizet Farmhouse is ready to move into while still offering exciting potential for further development, personalisation and modernisation.

This is a rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful countryside living with schools, supermarkets and leisure facilities all within easy reach. A magnificent family home in an enviable location, ready for its next chapter.
