Elevated 3-bed detached home with large garden and superb countryside outlook, ready for renovation..
Detached three-bedroom house on elevated plot with countryside views
A rare detached family home set on an elevated, large plot with wide countryside views and glimpses of the Lake District fells. The house delivers generous, light-filled living and larger-than-expected bedrooms across approximately 1,370 sq ft, a single garage and substantial gardens front and rear — ideal for family life or sympathetic extension (STPP).
The property does require renovation and upgrading in places: cosmetic improvements, potential insulation work (granite/whinstone walls assumed uninsulated) and standard servicing of appliances and systems are needed. EPC band D reflects room for thermal improvement. Practical positives include mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile signal in a very affluent, low-crime area.
Location is a strong selling point — roughly a 12-minute walk to Cockermouth town centre, close to good primary and secondary schools, sports facilities and immediate countryside access. The plot, patio, summer house and woodland backdrop create excellent scope for outdoor living and adding value through improvements or an extension.
Buyers should note measurements are approximate and appliances/fixtures have not been tested; a survey is recommended to confirm condition and any structural or insulation work required. For a family seeking space, views and long-term improvement potential in a convenient town-fringe location, this home offers a compelling canvas.
