3 bed terraced house for sale

Wollenscroft, Stainburn, Workington CA14

The perfect first time buy if you want a garden, not a yard. Because yes… you can get proper outside space without moving miles away from everything.

It’s amazing what happens when you go just five minutes out of Workington town centre. Suddenly you’re not choosing between “decent house” and “somewhere to sit outside” — you can actually have both.

This well-built 1970s terrace is in great shape too. None of the usual scary stuff that can come with older homes. No leaky roof, no damp drama, no “surprise” electrics — just a solid home that’s been looked after and is ready to move into.

And if you’re trying to get on the housing ladder without signing up for months of dust, diy and bank-balance panic… you’ll like this one. It’s neutrally decorated, well maintained, and you can unpack and relax from day one. There’s a fresh modern shower room and a smart fitted kitchen that still feels crisp and current.

Downstairs you’ve got a bright lounge with big front windows, and then at the back there’s a conservatory — ideal as a dining space, home office, playroom… or just somewhere to sit with a brew and convince yourself you’re being productive.

The kitchen is modern and practical with fitted units, a built-in oven and plenty of workspace. Big enough to cook properly… but close enough to town that a cheeky takeaway is never off the table.

Upstairs you’ve got two doubles and a single, plus the modern shower room.

Now for the bit first-time buyers usually don’t get: The garden.
The rear garden is a proper sun trap and a world away from the classic town-centre yard. It’s big enough to enjoy, small enough to manage, and you’ve got the choice of sitting out on the decking or escaping into the conservatory when Cumbria does its “four seasons in one afternoon” thing.

It’s quiet here too. Wollenscroft is pedestrian-only, so there’s no constant traffic outside your front door. But you’ve still got a single garage in a separate block and plenty of residents’ parking nearby, so day-to-day life stays easy.

Stainburn gives you that semi-rural feel without losing convenience — Workington is still only a few minutes away, and when you can’t be bothered cooking, The Briery is close by for something delicious (eat in or takeaway).

Great for couples starting out… and with an enclosed rear garden, it works brilliantly for young families too.
Schools? Ashfield Schools and Workington Academy are both less than a 10-minute drive away. Countryside walks? You’re a short stroll from open fields and miles of space to explore.

If you want a home you can move into straight away — with the sort of outside space most first-time buyers only get in their Pinterest boards — 27 Wollenscroft is well worth a look.
