Calling All Creatives! Why buy an ordinary 3‐bed doer-upper when you could restore the birthplace of Percy Kelly? This blank canvas is sure to inspire and offers so much more than a just property with potential - it gives you a wonderful story to tell.
Born here in 1918, Percy Kelly went on to become one of Cumbria’s most celebrated artists – known for his bold lines, simple but expressive landscapes and fiercely independent spirit. Now, the home where his journey began is ready for someone new to leave their mark.
Could that be you?
From the outside, it’s a classic West Cumbrian terrace - just like the ones Percy used to paint. We’re a bit surprised there’s no blue plaque on the wall…
Inside is also surprising - there’s more space and potential than you might expect.
The lounge and dining room have been opened up to create a large sociable space. And the kitchen-diner at the back is wider than the typical narrow galley style you’d expect to find in similar homes nearby.
Upstairs, two double bedrooms and a third single room offer flexible options, along with a small family bathroom
The kitchen and bathroom will need updating, which does give you the option to get creative with the layout - potentially to free up space for a bigger and more luxurious bathroom?
The decoration is definitely ready for a refresh, giving you the chance to indulge your inner artist and bring this traditional terrace bang up to date.
And with Workington town centre just 10 minutes walk away, you’ll never need to book a taxi after meeting friends for drinks. You’ve got everything on your doorstep – and enough on-street residents’ parking to make life easy if you do have a car.
If you have young children or are thinking of starting a family soon, St Michael’s Infant & Nursery is less than 10 minutes’ walk away, while Victoria Juniors is even closer.
Whether you’re an artist, an idealist, or simply someone who loves a good story – this home invites you to become part of Workington’s history.
I’m expecting plenty of interest so call today to arrange a viewing.
