Family-sized renovated cottage on the Lake District fringe with large garden.
Extended three-bedroom semi with open-plan living-dining kitchen
Set on the edge of the Lake District National Park, this extended three-bedroom semi-detached house offers family-sized accommodation and generous outdoor space. A recently completed extension and tasteful refurbishment create an open-plan living-dining-kitchen with island, walk-in pantry and French doors to a large lawn and patio — a clear family hub for cooking, dining and entertaining.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms and a four-piece family bathroom, giving comfortable sleeping and bathing arrangements for a growing family. The property includes a detached two-storey garage and extensive off-street parking for several vehicles; the garage could be repurposed subject to planning, offering flexible work-from-home or holiday-let potential.
Practical points to note: the property is sold with no onward chain but is subject to a Section 157 local occupancy restriction and must be sold to someone who lives or works in Cumbria. The EPC rating is E. While the house has been newly renovated and benefits from modern double glazing and a multi-fuel stove, the E rating and occupancy condition are material considerations for buyers.
This home will suit an outdoors-oriented family seeking countryside living with good access to National Park walking and local village amenities. It blends ready-to-use living space with future potential in the garage and garden, but purchasers should confirm eligibility under the occupancy restriction and consider energy-efficiency improvements to raise the EPC rating.
