Don’t Judge A Book By Its Cover. The neat and tidy front of this 3 bedroom
bungalow doesn’t prepare you for the superb open plan kitchen/diner and
sunroom at the rear. It’s in a quiet village that’s handy for Carlisle, the
sea and the National Park. Property ref: KD0516
This 1980’s bungalow is located at the heart of a quiet village that’s
conveniently close to the A595 but is set back so you won’t be bothered by
passing traffic.
The unassuming front and neat front garden suggests a well maintained property
but you’re in for a treat when you step inside. The current owners have lived
here for around 15 years and have lovingly updated and improved the property
in that time.
The single storey property has two distinct sides, with the bedrooms to the
left of the hall and the living accommodation to the right.
And whilst the two double bedrooms and single bedroom are a good size and
neutrally decorated, it’s the open plan living area which deserves most
attention.
Rather than fully opening up the living room and kitchen/diner, there’s a
partial diving wall which means you get the best of both worlds. The rooms can
feel like one sociable space when you want them to…but you can take yourself
off if you want to do your own thing.
The kitchen is super - sleek and modern with gorgeous quartz worktops and top of
the range neff appliances. A substantial island unit dominates the room -
chefs will love the 4 point neff induction hob, everyone else will just love
pulling up a stool and pouring a glass of something chilled.
The kitchen leads out to the conservatory where you can sit and look out to
the sun trap rear garden. The layout will be perfect for summer entertaining,
with a substantial decking area just outside.
The bathroom is also at the rear, and with both a bath and shower it means you
can have a relaxing soak after a busy day.
The property is practical too. A handy utility room at the rear means none of
the precious kitchen space is wasted. There’s also parking for several cars on
the paved front drive.
The current owners have clearly loved living here - and it shows. It’s in
immaculate condition - you wouldn’t have anything to do. Other than to make
yourself at home.
The village hall and pub are the only amenities currently in the village.
You’ll need to head to nearby Wigton for your daily essentials. It’s less than
a 10 minute drive to the centre of town.
There’s a selection of shops, cafes and pubs along with a popular market every
Friday. There’s also a host of leisure facilities in the town, with both a
swimming pool and badminton club.
If you’re looking for a greater choice or are heading further afield there’s
hourly trains which will take you from Wigton to Carlisle in less than 20
minutes.
But the village is also handy if you prefer to spend your time on the beach or
the fells. You’ve got a choice of unspoiled beaches all less than half an
hours drive away, or the north shore of Bassenthwaite is only 20 minutes drive
(or a 60 minute bike ride) away.
Given the superb condition and sought - after village location i’m expecting
plenty of interest, so call me to arrange a viewing.
