Summary - 5 PARKLANDS CRESCENT PENRITH CA11 8SL
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable two-bedroom starter with parking and low-maintenance garden.
80% shared-ownership; 20% retained by housing provider
A tidy two-bedroom semi in Parklands Crescent offered on an 80% shared-ownership basis — an affordable route into Penrith’s market. The house is presented to a good standard with a welcoming living room featuring a living-flame gas fire and a practical kitchen that opens onto a low-maintenance rear garden.
Suitably sized for a first-time buyer or downsizer, the home has off-street parking for two vehicles, double glazing and mains gas central heating on a modern boiler. The long lease (999 years) removes common short-lease concerns and the property sits close to Penrith town centre, local schools rated Good, and reliable transport links.
Be clear-eyed about the limits: this is a compact property (about 538 sq ft) with two bedrooms and a single family bathroom, so space is tight compared with larger family homes. Ownership is shared (80% sale, 20% retained by the housing provider), which can affect staircasing, resale and service arrangements — buyers should check the shared-ownership terms and any associated costs.
Overall, this is a practical, low-upkeep starter home in a quiet residential crescent. It’s an economical way to buy into a desirable area of Penrith, especially for buyers prioritising location, low running costs and straightforward maintenance over large living spaces.
