Welcome to 22 Kendal Green, an impressive four-bedroom detached family home occupying a particularly enviable elevated position above Kendal Green.
Built in 1937 within the grounds of the neighbouring Victorian property at number 21, this individual home enjoys a wonderful sense of character, privacy and individuality, while remaining just a short stroll from the heart of Kendal.
From its elevated setting, the property enjoys splendid rooftop views towards Benson Knott and the surrounding fells, providing a beautiful backdrop to both the home and its exceptional gardens.

Beautifully landscaped and exceptionally private, the garden has been thoughtfully arranged into a series of small courtyards, flagged patios, pathways and planted areas, creating a wonderful sense of discovery as you move through the space.
Mature trees, stone walls, rockery and established borders provide an abundance of colour and character, while the various secluded seating areas offer numerous opportunities to relax and entertain.
