2 bed bungalow for sale

Sunnyside, Seaton, Workington CA14

Privacy, Potential And Proper Plot. Hidden away at the end of a quiet lonning, this chain free bungalow has a few quirks, but it also has great views, plenty of space and bags of potential - inside and out. The perfect project with no nosy neighbours.

Tucked away at the very end of Sunnyside, this detached two bedroom bungalow has all the right ingredients if you’re after something with space, privacy and room to make your mark.

It does need a full update – but what you’re working with here is solid, generously sized and full of possibility.

There are two proper double bedrooms, a big light-filled lounge with a lovely outlook and a spacious-but-tired kitchen.

Then there’s the utility, which is nearly double the size of the kitchen. Unless you have A lot of laundry, that opens up the idea of combining the two into one brilliant kitchen-diner. It won’t be straightforward - the steps down to the utility will need some thought - but it will be well worth the effort.

There’s another large room off the utility (shown on the floorplan as “store”) that could also be put to good use.

The bathroom’s a little tight at the moment as they’ve squeezed in both a shower and a bath – but that’s easily rethought. There’s also a separate WC.

A pull-down ladder takes you into the loft, which has already been partially converted into a proper room on one side. Add a staircase and you’ve got the makings of a home office or studio space. Go the extra mile, obtain building regs approval and you could have another bedroom.

Outside, it sits on a generous plot that’s overgrown but there’s more than enough space to create something lovely. Add in the countryside views, the attached garage and a drive, and you’ve got real potential both for day-to-day living and adding long-term value.

The off the beaten track location is a key part of the appeal. Highfield is the last house down the lane, with no one behind you and nothing but fields and footpaths beyond, you get peace, privacy and proper walking routes from your doorstep.

Don’t be fooled into thinking that this means you’re stuck out in the sticks. Sunnyside is on the edge of Seaton but it’s only 2 minutes in the car or a 15 minute walk to the centre of the village where you’ll find everything you need day-to-day - a choice of shops, pubs, takeaways along with the primary school and village hall.

And when you want more choice, you can drive to Workington town centre in less than 10 minutes.

If you’ve been waiting for a bungalow project in an idyllic location, this one could be hard to beat.
