This ground-floor two-bedroom flat in Cockermouth offers a straightforward, affordable home or lettings opportunity under £100,000. Fresh new carpets and recent decoration mean it’s move-in ready, while the kitchen and bathroom are fully usable now with scope to modernise later. The property is freehold and chain-free, so a swift purchase is possible for the right buyer.
Internally the layout is traditional and compact (about 595 sq ft): a double and a single bedroom, living room and practical bathroom. The previous night storage heaters have been removed, so a new heating system will need to be chosen and installed — a chance to fit a more efficient solution that suits you. There is no flooding risk and council tax is very low.
Outside there's a private front garden with lawn, patio and a shed — a handy space for a cup of tea or small-scale gardening. The location is walkable to Cockermouth town centre with local shops, pubs and transport links close by. Nearby schools include several well-rated primaries and a good secondary, making this a sensible low-cost option for local buyers or investors.
This is a simple, honest property: one of the most affordable homes in Cockermouth. It will suit first-time buyers looking for a low-entry local purchase, landlords seeking a budget buy-to-let, or someone wanting a small lock-up-and-leave second home close to town. Expect modest size and some updating, but clear potential for value with straightforward improvements.
