This contemporary five-bedroom detached home, built in 2022, is designed for family life with generous, light-filled spaces and high-spec finishes. The open-plan kitchen/living area features floor-to-ceiling glazing and patio doors that frame uninterrupted fell views. Practical touches include a tucked-away utility, Corian worktops, Quooker tap, integrated Siemens appliances and a garage with power and water.
Sleeping accommodation spans three floors with five double bedrooms, two ensuite bathrooms and a master suite with dressing area and Juliet balcony. Ground-floor underfloor heating, radiators upstairs and a mechanical heat recovery and clean-air system help with comfort and efficiency. The landscaped, low-maintenance garden, tiled patios and decked seating area make outdoor life simple and private, backing onto the local rugby pitch.
Location strengths are clear: an exclusive small estate less than a mile from Cockermouth town centre, easy access to the Lake District, and good local schools rated Good–Outstanding. Practical advantages include parking for four cars, a car port, and an insulated garage suitable as a workshop.
Be aware of some real considerations: broadband speeds are slow, council tax is above average and the wider area shows higher levels of deprivation. The house backs onto a rugby pitch, which gives great views and privacy but can generate noise on match days. Overall, this is a stylish, family-focused new build offering low-maintenance living and strong access to outdoor amenities, best suited to buyers prioritising space, finish and location close to the fells.
