What Will You Decide To Do At The Side? If you’ve got big plans, this corner-plot semi has the space to match. You could just give it a quick lick of paint but there’s scope to add a substantial side extension and transform this versatile family home. Property ref: KD0516
This is a solid three-bedroom semi on a generous corner plot - offering the kind of layout and potential that’s hard to find. There’s plenty of space at the side for a two-storey extension, and still enough garden left over to enjoy.
Inside, you’ll find a simple but versatile layout that’s easy to reimagine.
The spacious lounge overlooks the front lawn, while the kitchen at the rear opens into a conservatory that could double up as a dining room – already offering a more open-plan feel and easy access to the garden.
On the opposite side of the hall is a separate utility room and downstairs loo – perfect for knocking through or replacing entirely if you go big on that side extension.
Upstairs, there are two comfortable double bedrooms and a third that’s a decent single - ideal for a child’s room or a dedicated home office. The bathroom’s compact, but functional – a bit like the kitchen down below, it’s ready for an upgrade.
Having the bathroom, smallest bedroom, utility and w/c on the same side of the house (the side which would be extended) really does help you if you have big plans - making it much easier to extend and expand.
Outside, the property really comes into its own.
There’s a driveway and lawn to the front, a decent back garden with lawn, patio and a shed (which may or may not be on its last legs), and that all-important wide side area that could unlock some serious value.
Located just a 10 minute walk from Longtown’s, schools and transport links, this a practical choice as well as a promising project.
If you do a lot of driving for work, Longtown is handy if you need to head off on the M6/A74(M) as Junction 45 at Gretna is only 10 minutes drive away.
It takes around 20 minutes to drive to the centre of Carlisle down the A7, making this an affordable and practical commute if you work in the city but don’t particularly want to live there.
Whether you’re an ambitious first-time buyer, a seasoned renovator or a growing family looking for a home you can shape to suit your future, this one’s worth a closer look.
