A spacious three-bedroom mid-terrace in Carlisle, offered chain-free and ready for a first purchase or investor upgrade. The house keeps many period features — high ceilings, picture rails and stripped pine floors — that give rooms character and generous feeling. Practical comforts include double glazing and mains gas central heating; the property totals about 1,015 sq ft.
Layout works well for family life: a bay-fronted living room open to a dining room, a large kitchen with appliance spaces, and three bedrooms served by a single first-floor bathroom. A small forecourt garden and a secure rear yard give useful outside space in a compact plot. The house sits within a mile of Carlisle city centre, close to local shops, buses and the railway station.
Be realistic about running and improvement costs. The stone walls are likely uninsulated, and some rooms need redecoration; the property will benefit from targeted refurbishment and possible insulation upgrades to improve comfort and efficiency. Crime levels in the area are described as very high and the neighbourhood is relatively deprived, factors to weigh for family buyers or tenants.
Strengths are location, period charm, size and chain-free sale — good for first-time buyers, young families or buy-to-let purchasers wanting a straightforward, traditional terrace to modernise. The single bathroom and small plot limit appeal for larger families, but the property’s scale and proximity to schools, transport and local amenities make it a practical, affordable entry into Carlisle’s housing market.
