3 bed light industrial for sale

Southwaite, Cockermouth CA13

Is This The Lake District Lifestyle You’ve Been Looking For? A superb, spacious former mill on the edge of the National Park with a quirky layout, sunny garden, huge basement and picture postcard views - plus the chance to grab the one-bed next door too.

If you’ve been waiting for a three bedroom home that’s genuinely different – with more space, more flexibility and a few unexpected touches – this could be exactly what you need.

With a sunny garden, a big basement that’s full of potential and an unusual layout that just works, The Mill offers something a little more practical and a lot more fun.

Let’s start with the layout - if you’ve seen this listed as a “three bedroom terrace” then the floorplan is going to be a little different to what you’d expect...

You enter via a set of external stairs, bringing you straight into the heart of the home: A smart and stylish kitchen that flows into the lounge, all backdropped by picture postcard views that will never get old.

There’s space here to host, to relax, to gather round the table – or just stretch out on the sofa with the fells as your backdrop.

Tucked behind the stairs, there’s a downstairs WC and a handy utility room – somewhere to chuck the muddy boots or sort the laundry.

Upstairs you’ll find three generous double bedrooms (one with an ensuite), and a stylish fully tiled modern bathroom

The basement is not just a dark and damp corner for storage. Given the unusual layout, it’s not really below ground level.

This part-sunken lower floor is brightened by windows, has stable door access to the garden and crying out to be included in daily family life.

A workshop? Home gym? Mini cinema? Or you could keep it exactly as it is: An eccentric but charming rabbit enclosure.

Outside, the south facing garden gets the sun throughout the day. There’s a raised patio for that morning coffee or sunset glass of wine, plus a lower paved area with a powerpoint ready for your hot tub.

It’s private, peaceful and just the place to properly unwind.

There’s a courtyard at the front with allocated parking for two cars.

And when you’re ready to get out and about, Cockermouth is only 10 minutes away.

If you have young children, Eaglesfield Paddle School has a fantastic reputation and you’re literally a stone’s throw (approx. 400 feet) from the edge of the National Park.

That means endless walks, weekend adventures and a sense of escape that starts the moment you get home.

This unusual property would make a fabulous family home or a weekend retreat you’ll want to come back to time and time again.

And given the fantastic location it would make a very popular holiday let for families or groups.

And here’s the twist – the one-bed next door (called North Mill) is also for sale.

You could move here and operate the smaller unit as an on-site holiday let - it’s got a track record as such.

Or it could be a brilliant annexe for an older relative or semi-independent teen. It certainly gives you plenty of options.

This is a unique home with a flexible layout and the kind of views that stop you in your tracks – all just steps from the National Park.
