3 bed detached house for sale

Fern Grove, The Highlands, Whitehaven CA28

Tastes Change But The Highlands Never Goes Out Of Fashion. This stylish 2001-built detached family home has grown up and got better with age, adding a conservatory, decking and garage conversion flexibility to make life easier and more fun.

The Highlands has been a favourite with families since the early 2000s. And it’s easy to see why - great transport links, nearby schools and a friendly community feel.

This detached home on Fern Grove takes everything people love about the area and adds a few modern upgrades that make life even better. It’s a 2001 home that’s evolved with family living - without losing its original charm.

The lounge is light and airy, with a modern bioethanol feature fireplace for cosy evenings and patio doors that lead straight into a conservatory that’s big enough for Sunday lunches, games nights or lazy afternoons with a book.

The extra space makes such a difference - it’s one of those rooms you’ll end up using more than you think.

The kitchen is sleek and modern, with integrated appliances and a fresh, clean look. There’s also a handy downstairs WC.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, all tastefully decorated. The master comes with fitted wardrobes and an ensuite shower room, while two of the bedrooms give you elevated sea views - a lovely surprise you’ll appreciate waking up to on clear mornings.

Outside, the garden is set up for summer. The decked area catches the sun from dawn till dusk, making it perfect for BBQs, kids’ playtime or simply relaxing with friends. There’s also a well-kept lawn, a garden shed and secure fencing - ideal for anyone with little ones or pets.

The garage has been cleverly converted to create even more flexibility. Use it as a home office, a playroom, a snug or even an occasional guest bedroom. There’s still storage space at the front (behind the garage door), so you can keep your bikes, tools or garden kit tucked away.

The centre of Whitehaven is less than a 10 minute drive away - including the marina, shops and cafés. Having the A595 Loop Road nearby means you can easily head further afield - up the coast or inland towards Egremont, Sellafield and the National Park.

Families with younger children will like how close this is to St James CofE infant and junior schools - both less than 5 minutes in the car. For older kids, both St Benedict’s and Whitehaven Academy are less than 10 minutes drive.

This is a fabulous family home that’s been thoughtfully updated and improved since it was first built around 25 years ago. The Highlands hasn’t changed but 5 Fern Grove certainly has - for the better!
