Description Flat 1b Kents Bank Apartment is a wonderful example of a Ground Floor, spacious yet easily managed, tastefully and neutrally presented Apartment. It actually has more of a Bungalow feel and is possibly larger than many Bungalows! It enjoys a spacious and airy feeling throughout and is immaculately presented.

Being Ground Floor, with easily managed outdoor space and within close proximity to the Promenade (for a level walk into town) and the Railway Station this property will appeal to retirees wishing to downsize, part time occupiers (those lucky enough to travel for part of the year) perhaps those looking for an ideal 'lock up and leave' or maybe even a young professional couple.

The lovely bright red front door opens into the Entrance Vestibule with recessed ceiling spot lights and ceramic tiled floor. A door to the left is to the boiler cupboard housing the Ideal gas central heating combi boiler (with storage) and to the right is the Wet Room. Very practical with WC, pedestal wash hand basin and corner shower area. Chrome ladder radiator and frosted window. From the Vestibule a glazed door leads into the Hallway.

The Hallway is spacious and welcoming with doors to all rooms and double doors leading into the Open Plan Living Area and Kitchen. Off the Hallway there is access to the Utility Closet with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble drier above. The open Plan Lounge/Diner is cosy and inviting with French doors to the Patio. The Kitchen is well proportioned with space for a breakfast table and is furnished with an attractive range of cream, high gloss wall and base cabinets with deep, solid wood work surface and 1½ bowl stainless steel sink unit. Built-in electric oven and ceramic hob, integrated dishwasher and wine cooler and space for American style fridge freezer. Lovely, wooden floor.

Both Bedrooms are doubles with Bedroom 1 having a glimpse of Morecambe Bay and a range of attractive grey high gloss bedroom furniture which includes a full wall of wardrobes, chest of drawers and bedside cabinet, all of which are included in the sale. Bedroom 2 has an additional useful hanging recess. The Bathroom has a white suite comprising WC, pedestal wash hand basin and bath with shower over. Recessed ceiling spot lights and striking half height black and white wall tiles.

The Patio Area is enclosed with wrought iron railings and provides an idyllic spot to relax and enjoy a glass or two and the lovely views towards Morecambe Bay. There is also an additional raised Communal Garden Area with drying facilities. Parking is provided for 2 vehicles with one space immediately outside the Apartment and the other within the parking area at the lower level. 

Location Conveniently located a short walk from Kents Bank Railway Station and the picturesque, level, mile long, Edwardian Promenade which provides a level walk into the town where amenities such as Medical Centre, Post Office, Library, Primary School, Café, Shops and Tea Rooms can be found. Kents Bank is situated on the outskirts of Grange over Sands, approximately 1 mile from the town centre. Grange is approximately 20 minutes from the M6 motorway and a similar distance from the base of Lake Windermere.

The village of Cartmel is approx 2 miles away and is renowned for the world famous steeplechase meetings, the highly prized L'Enclume restaurant and Sticky Toffee Pudding! The village boasts impressive historic architecture including the 12th Century Priory and Gate House. With Public Houses, Eateries, Coffee Shops, Bistro and a handful of eclectic shops it is easy to see why the village has gained such a popular reputation.

To reach the property proceed out of Grange over Sands along The Esplanade in the direction of Allithwaite. Proceed up Risedale Hill past the pink nursing home on the right. Take the left turning after 'Oversands View' into Carter Road and follow the road around into Kentsford Road. Proceed down the hill and upon nearing the bottom Kents Bank Apartments can be found shortly on the right hand side.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on March 24, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 24, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
