Summary - 8 GREEN BANK LANE COCKERMOUTH CA13 9EF
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached Bungalow

Chain-free two-bedroom bungalow on the edge of Cockermouth
Generous plot, private rear garden with mature hedging and raised beds
Detached garage with power and light; driveway parking for two cars
Large interior footprint with flexible layout and extension potential
Requires full refurbishment throughout; ready for a knock-through or upgrade
Excellent fell views to the front and country lane at drive end
Slow broadband speeds; consider if remote working is essential
Affordable council tax; very low local crime and strong nearby schools
Set on the quiet edge of Cockermouth, this two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers peace, privacy and wide fell views to the front. The plot is generous with a private rear garden, mature hedging and raised beds — an easy-to-manage outdoor space for gardening or quiet evenings. Parking for two cars and a detached garage with power and light add practical value and hobby potential.
The interior is large but requires a full refurbishment. The current layout is versatile: you can knock through the kitchen and dining room to create an open-plan living area, extend to the rear, or reconfigure rooms to suit your needs. This is a clear opportunity for someone prepared to invest time and budget to unlock modern comfort and energy improvements.
Practical positives include chain-free sale, freehold tenure, very low local crime and easy access to open fields and the Lake District (Bassenthwaite about a 10–20 minute drive). Local amenities and Cockermouth town centre are walkable. Notable drawbacks: the property needs comprehensive updating throughout and broadband speeds are slow — important if you work from home.
This home will suit downsizers seeking single-level living with scope, or buyers who want a project in a quiet, affluent town-fringe location. With no forward chain, completion could be quicker for those ready to proceed.
