Just a short walk from Kendal Castle, and prominently set within the market town, it's easy to understand why homes along Sunnyside seldom come up for sale.

Designed and built on the concept of the green squares of London's imposing townhouses, Sunnyside overlooks Fletcher Park, an expanse of tree-lined greenery that once belonged to the homes. Ultimately, only one side of Sunnyside was completed, and Fletcher Park was gifted to the public.

Exuding a quiet calm and an understated repose, Maple Tree House, a grand Victorian townhouse, stands proudly behind mature front gardens planted with conifers, acers and fragrantly wending wisteria.

Park up at the front where there is off street parking available or to the rear, where there is a large, detached double garage.

Steps lead up past a paved patio to the sage green front door, where there is space to don and doff coats and shoes in the handy entrance porch with coir matting underfoot.

Handsome, glazed oak doors open into the entrance hallway, carpeted and instantly welcoming. To the right the original staircase turns up to the first two floors, where numerous bedrooms await.

For now, open the period wooden door to the left and step through to the living room. Light bright and surprisingly modern, this room is dressed in creamy white walls with plush carpet underfoot. The perfect room in which to relax and unwind, pause in the window seat and escape the world for half an hour with a book, looking out over the park to the front through the broad bay window.

Return to the hallway, a quiet study is dressed in zesty tones, peacefully set to the rear of the home. Light-toned wooden flooring extends underfoot with fitted shelving and double corner beechwood hand built fitted desk. Leafy, elevated views extend through the window.

From the entrance hallway, take the stairs down to the lower ground floor, where an exposed stone wall initiates the comforting feel of the downstairs sitting room; cosy and snug, a log-burning stove infuses the room with toasty warmth in wintertime whilst a built-in alcove is the perfect space in which to stash the seasoned logs. Cream carpet and contemporary wall lighting provide a soft and comforting ambience, whilst two sash windows offer leafy views to the front. Sliding doors open to the rear to reveal the stunning family kitchen-dining-living room.

North facing, the wow-factor kitchen soaks up light throughout the day and is consistently warm and welcoming. Extended via a light and bright garden room, the kitchen has been designed to serve as a sociable space in which all the family can come together. Designed to the 'magic triangle' formula, everything is within easy reach, with deep pan drawers close to the fitted dishwasher. A range of Neff appliances also includes a double oven, microwave, gas hob and extractor unit. Sleek granite worktops offer abundant preparation space as well as casual dining at the breakfast bar.

Light suffuses the living area to the rear, as glass roof and walls combine for a bright and cheerful space. Dine with views of the garden or slide open the doors to dine alfresco.

A handy utility room contains wash basin, WC, a sink and has plumbing for a washer-dryer.

Take the stairs up from the lower ground floor to the first floor, onto the brightly lit landing, where the family bathroom lies to the right. Fitted furniture accommodates the WC and wash basin, with storage beneath. Soak away the aches in the curved bathtub, with stylish uplighting. An overhead shower offers you the option of a refreshing morning spritz.

Turning right from the bathroom, make your way into bedroom two, a spacious and light room with impressive views out over the garden to the distant hills and Benson Knott. Louvred cupboards extend above and to either side of the king size bed offering ample storage, also concealing a hidden vanity unit wash basin. Cream carpet extends underfoot.

Next door, overlooking the leafy greenery of the park, arrive at the master bedroom. A room that exudes tranquil calm, cream carpet coats the floor, with a large sash window delivering in daylight. Storage space is in abundance, currently furnished with wardrobes, drawers and a double bed. In the summer, wake up to the soft sound of leaves rustling and swaying in the parkland to the front.

Also nestled on this floor is bedroom five. Currently used as a gym, this front facing bedroom with its fitted wardrobes could easily serve as an office or nursery.

Continue up the stairs to the second floor, turning right to arrive at bedroom three. A sumptuously sized bedroom, dressed in calming earthy shades, storage is available in the fitted wardrobes, with plenty of space for a King size bed. Stunning views extend over the allotments and cycle tracks to the distant hills.

Also sequestered on this penthouse level is bedroom four, another comfortable double bedroom brimming in eaves storage. A large Velux window draws an abundance of light in. Private and peaceful, with its own bathroom with shower, wash basin, WC and vanity unit wash basin, this floor is the perfect refuge for guests or older teenagers.

A home that accommodates children of all ages, Maple Tree House soaks people up, providing ample space for family to come together and also to enjoy moments of peace and quiet in their own space.

Garden
Dine alfresco in the sun kissed rear garden, easily accessed by sliding doors in the kitchen, which open to a large patio where there is a dining table and chairs. Enjoy long evenings around the pizza oven in the summertime, laughing with family and friends.

Tropical planting creates a Mediterranean feel, inspiring an on-holiday vibe all year round. Soak up the sunshine and shade throughout the day on the different seating areas that rise up through the different levels of this garden oasis.

For the ultimate family home, Maple Tree House is a hidden gem in which all the family can seek sanctuary and recharge, with the convenience of the schools, shops and transport links of Kendal at your doorstep.
