Welcome to STABLE COTTAGE 9 Thornleigh Drive, Burton-in-Kendal, LA6 1NQ Highly unusual and certainly quirky, Stable Cottage was converted from the stables of a country house and has been developed over the years by the current owners since their purchase in 1983. The property offers scope to refurbish, remodel and add your stamp to this unique family home. The property is U-shaped and sits around a magnificent central glazed courtyard - imagine re-working the layout so there was a contemporary and open plan flow, all revolving around the fabulous courtyard! The aged glass roof leaks in places (great for plants) and isn't insulated so at present its not an all year round space but the roof could be replaced and the room will come into everyday use. In a quiet and secluded residential setting, the gardens are mainly situated to the front of the property with large lawns and mature planting and trees. A small, private seating area is to the rear and this leads from the master bedroom - perfect for breakfast or morning coffee. The driveway provides good parking. If you have been seeking a perfect holiday hideaway this could be it with its large secure garden for the children which gets frequent visits from hedgehogs, pheasants, rabbits and the like plus the pond for an endless supply of tadpoles. For the grownups there is the that amazing yard for undercover barbecues and large family parties and there is masses of space for all the year round storage of your boat, cycles and other holiday paraphernalia plus that classic sports car for touring the Lakes! Mains electricity, drainage and metered water. Electric heating along with a multi-fuel stove. Double glazed windows. Carpets, curtains and blinds, curtain poles, dishwasher, fridge freezer, washing machine, tumble drier, some light fittings and tool shed are included in the sale. The lantern in the courtyard, garden pots and bird bath are specifically excluded. An attractive and popular village with families due to schools and commuters because of the road and rail accessibility, Burton-in-Kendal offers a good range of local amenities; a Post Office selling a basic selection of provisions, a well-regarded local butcher’s shop, a primary school (Burton Morewood), bowls and tennis clubs, the Kings Arms public house as well as a thriving and busy village hall. Exit at Junction 36 of the M6, and at the round-a-bout, take the third exit signposted Kirkby Lonsdale. At the second round-a-bout, take the third exit onto the A6070, signposted Burton-in-Kendal and Holme. Continue into Burton in-Kendal and take the last turning on the left on Dalton Lane. Take the first left onto Thornleigh Drive and Stable Cottage can be found on the the left hand side, approximately half way up.
