Views Of Solway Firth To The Front. This surprisingly spacious cottage could
be the ideal weekend retreat, a popular holiday let or unlock a permanently
slower pace of life, being so close to both the coast and National Park.
You’re looking for a major lifestyle change or just an occasional Cumbrian
getaway, this substantial double - fronted detached cottage could fit the bill.
It’s in a handy location that’s less than 10 minutes drive to Maryport Marina
or the beach and less than 20 minutes to the shores of Bassenthwaite Lake.
That would make it a perfectly placed weekend retreat - either for yourselves
or Airbnb guests.
You enter through the porch to a fabulous open plan living room with a red
brick inglenook fireplace with a real log burner and gorgeous exposed beams.
There’s stairs to the first floor on one side of the room and a conservatory
on the other side. It could be a lovely place to sit with a coffee and relax,
whatever the weather.
There’s a spacious open plan kitchen and dining room at the rear that’s surely
to be the social hub of the home.
Upstairs has three bedrooms (two doubles and a good size single) along with a
large family bathroom.
Depending on your tastes you may eventually decide to update the kitchen and
bathroom but there’s no urgent need if you just wanted to move in and make
yourselves at home.
The outside space isn’t huge but that’s one thing less to worry about if
you’re not going to be here all the time. There’s a small courtyard garden at
the front, a long drive with parking for a couple of cars and a south facing
lawned garden at the rear.
There's a detached garage that can potentially house a couple of cars. As few
people park a car in the garage nowadays, it would make a great workshop or
gamesroom.
Crosby is a small village on the main A596 between Maryport and Carlisle. The
village primary school is rated “Good” by Ofsted and the friendly local pub,
The Stag Inn, serves up delicious home cooked food.
Maryport town centre is less than 10 minutes drive away but if you wanted a
greater choice of big name retailers, restaurants and leisure facilities it’s
only 40 minutes in the car (or around an hour on the bus) to Carlisle.
If you prefer to get out into nature it’s the perfect base to explore the
quieter side of the National Park, with Bassenthwaite being the closest lake.
If the coast is more your thing, you could enjoy a stroll along Allonby beach
in less than 10 minutes by car.
This is a spacious and versatile home that could become your perfect Cumbrian
retreat or family home.
We’re expecting plenty of interest so call to arrange a viewing.
