If you are looking for a detached well-proportioned family home with character features, manageable gardens, good parking and excellent garaging in a popular and accessible village setting, Church Bank Farm may be the one for you. Here are our highlights:



* It's all in the details - feast your eyes on the decorative cornices and moulded architraves, panelled doors, decorative fireplaces (of which two are in the bedrooms), pine floorboards in the dining room, ceiling beams, an oak staircase and an original stone bench in the cellar.



* Room to grow - with a gross internal measurement of 4841 sq ft (449.8 sq m to include the garage and store) the accommodation is generous with a flexible layout.



Spread out - the large triple aspect sitting room (in the photo above) has doors leading out to the garden. A second room and the dining room both overlook the garden to the front and have open fires. The dining room is a lovely sociable space, ideal for entertaining being open to the fitted farmhouse kitchen with its Aga and Belfast sink.



* Practical working spaces are a must for modern day busy families. There is a useful boot/laundry room, cloakroom, two cellar rooms and a workshop.



* Bedtime... an attractive staircase with tall window leads to a spacious landing, off which are three double bedrooms, a fourth single, a large house bathroom and separate cloakroom with airing cupboard.



* The staircase continues to the second floor with two rooms currently used as a cinema and an office, however the options are open as this floor could be used as further bedrooms (or a master bedroom suite with installation of a bathroom), playroom (or den for older children) or hobbies room. the view toward Farleton Knott from the office is impressive!



* No shortage of outside space - there is a double garage with remote controlled up and over door, power and light and an attached wood store. There is a large driveway providing parking for a number of vehicles - cars, a caravan or even a boat! Safe, gated and off the road.



* Room to run around as well as sit and enjoy - the formal fore garden is laid to lawn with mature shrubs and enjoys views across open countryside to the Lakeland fells. The rear garden is secure, child and pet friendly with lawns, south facing seating area, established shrubs, a greenhouse and an orchard. In all 0.42 acres (0.17 hectares).



* A popular and attractive 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 primary school (Burton Morewood), bowls and tennis clubs, the Kings Arms public house as well as a thriving and busy village hall. Nearby Carnforth and Lancaster offer a wide range of facilities. There is also a local bus route from the Lakes to Lancaster.



* If you like fresh air and fun, you will be spoilt for choice! Close to the Yorkshire Dales, the Lake District National Park and the Lune Valley, the area provides a stunningly scenic adventure playground. If you fancy some sea air then Arnside, Silverdale and the wonderful promenade at Morecambe are not too far away.
