Summary - THE SPINNEY, WORKINGTON, LAMPLUGH CA14 4TY
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Character cottage with large gardens and countryside views near the Lake District.
Three double bedrooms, one ground-floor flexible room
Set on the edge of the Lake District National Park, this charming three-bedroom detached cottage offers an attractive mix of character and practical updates. The beamed living room with a multifuel stove, country-style kitchen, wraparound lawns and mature trees create a peaceful countryside retreat with superb hill and field views. Recent improvements include new UPVC sash windows and doors (2023), replaced fascias/soffits/gutters (2024) and a new electric garage roller door (2023).
The house sits on a large plot with parking for two and a useful single garage. Accommodation includes a flexible ground-floor bedroom/study and two generous double bedrooms upstairs, one with an en-suite. Oil-fired underfloor heating (Worcester boiler) provides warmth throughout. The property is freehold, EPC C and recorded as having no flood risk.
Important practical points: drainage is via a private septic tank and heating relies on oil (not a community supply). Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal. The stone walls are original (pre-1900) and assumed to lack cavity insulation, so upgrading insulation could be beneficial. The house is in a remote hamlet setting — peaceful but a 15-minute drive to Cockermouth for shops and services.
This home will suit buyers seeking rural lifestyle and strong character who value outdoor space, views and recent maintenance work. Investors or buyers wanting immediate low-maintenance living will appreciate the finished presentation, while buyers wanting maximum energy efficiency should budget for insulating improvements.
