Central location — two-minute walk to bus station
Set in the heart of Workington, this Victorian three-bedroom end-terrace offers practical living close to transport and local shops. The open-plan lounge and dining area and a modern kitchen give a contemporary feel, while a spacious master bedroom and two further bedrooms suit a couple or small family.
The property is well maintained throughout with double glazing (installed post-2002), a gas boiler and radiators, and a fully tiled bathroom with rainfall and hand-held shower. A private, low-maintenance rear yard with artificial turf and gated access provides outdoor space without heavy upkeep. Council tax is very cheap and broadband speeds are fast.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward: the house lies in a very deprived area with very high local crime rates, and parking may be limited on the street. The building is stone construction predating 1900 and likely has little or no wall insulation, which could mean higher heating costs and scope for improvement. There is only one bathroom and the plot is small.
This property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a centrally located, move-in-ready terrace with scope to add value (insulation, parking solutions where possible). Buyers should account for area-related considerations and basic retrofit opportunities when planning longer-term improvements.
