A Spacious Semi On A Substantial Plot, Waiting For You To Make It Your Own - Or Make It Bigger! With plenty of room to park, play and plan ahead this is a versatile family home with plenty of potential. And it’s less than a 10 minute walk to school.

Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in a popular part of town, this three-bed semi could be ideal if you’re just starting out or need somewhere that can grow with your family.

The ground floor has a spacious front lounge with a separate dining area at the rear. Patio doors open straight into a large conservatory.

The fitted kitchen is modern but it’s not the biggest. With a little imagination there’s plenty of scope to open it up to the dining area or reconfigure downstairs completely if you want something more sociable.

Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms and a smaller single/box room that could work well as a nursery or home office.

Just like the kitchen, the family bathroom isn’t the biggest and is probably in most urgent need of a freshen up.

Both the kitchen and bathroom are on the left hand side of the house, which is very useful as the drive runs down that side of the house - giving you potential to add a two storey side extension (subject to planning permission, of course).

You don’t need to look far to see what could be done - you can just look across to No.7 for inspiration, Or No.4, No.8, No.22 or No.24….

If you don’t need to extend you can keep the long drive that runs down the side of the house, leading to a detached single garage. That gives you plenty of space to park several cars, a campervan or a caravan.

There’s a neat lawn at the front and a large back garden with a lawn and a paved seating area just outside the conservatory.

For families with young children, the location makes everyday life that little bit easier. Jericho Primary School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is less than a 10-minute walk away, with Hensingham, Whitehaven Academy and St Benedict’s also close by.

You can walk to the town centre in under half an hour, or it takes less than 10 minutes by car or bus.

This is a versatile family home that already works. But if you’ve got a little bit of imagination (and a budget to match) it can work even harder, creating even more space for your family as it grows.

I’m expecting plenty of interest so call now to arrange a viewing.
