Holly Cottage is looking for a new owner, one that wants to put their stamp on this charming, period cottage. Now a little dated and tired it is ready for an injection of energy, enthusiasm and money to restore this once much-loved period home to its former glory. There is an abundance of original features with beamed ceilings, recess niches and a stone fireplace in the reception room, a stone bench and ceiling hooks in the pantry (it’s a similar size to the kitchen itself and provides excellent storage space), some sash windows, slate cills, flagged floors in the side entrance vestibule and panelled doors. There’s also a surprising amount of space behind the cottage with a generous parking area, single garage and summerhouse. The cottage gardens are private with lawn, mature trees and shrubs, in all 0.14 acre (0.06 hectares). A lovely place to sit and pass an hour or two, there’s also scope to introduce more planting and a greenhouse if you are green-fingered. Sedgwick is a small village in South Lakeland, highly accessible for the market town of Kendal (4 miles), commuting via the M6 J36 (4.3 miles) and Oxenholme Station on the West Coast line (3 miles). There’s good access to schools with a primary school at neighbouring Crosscrake and a choice of secondary schools at Milnthorpe (Dallam), Kendal (Queen Katherine and Kirkbie Kendal) and Kirkby Lonsdale (Queen Elizabeth). The Lancaster Canal aqueduct runs through the village and provides a level and scenic route for walking or running. Well- renowned Low Sizergh Barn Farm shop and cafe as well as the Strickland Arms (a popular foodie pub) are both within walking distance with the National Trust’s Sizergh Castle, gardens, cafe and shop also close at hand. If you like rambling or a more serious hike, running, cycling or sailing then Sedgwick is accessible for the splendour of the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks and the coastal AONB at Silverdale and Arnside. Mains electricity, drainage and water. Electric storage heaters with off-peak tariff and immersion to heat the water. Fibre optic broadband available (currently not connected). A mixture of double and single glazed windows. Fitted carpets, curtains and poles, blinds, light fittings and white goods are all included in the sale. Garden planters available by separate negotiation. Please note: as you would expect the adjoining property has a right of way across the rear of Holly Cottage for maintenance purposes. To find the property, leave the M6 at J36 and head north on the A591 towards South Lakes. Take the slip road signposted Barrow/Milnthorpe and take the third exit signposted Sedgwick. Follow the road round over the river bridge and up into the village. After passing the stately Sedgwick House on the right, proceed under the canal bridge and Holly Cottage is on the left, opposite the entrance to Wellheads Lane.
