6 bed semi-detached house for sale

Midtown House, Hayton, Aspatria CA7

Do You Have A Big Family With An Independent Granny Or A Grumpy Teen? Five bedrooms in the main house and a large self-contained annexe mean everyone can have their own space. Or keep the annexe as a proven & popular Airbnb, just 5 mins from the beach.

If you’ve got a bigger-than-most or blended family, modern life rarely fits neatly into one neat layout. Some need independence under the same roof. Others want flexibility that pays its way.

Midtown House makes that easy.

Overlooking the pretty village green in Hayton, this substantial detached home blends eighteenth century character with the kind of space most growing families struggle to find.

You’re only five minutes from the Solway coast and within easy reach of the Lake District National Park, with Aspatria close by for shops, schools and the station.

Parts of the house date all the way back to the 1700’s, and the chunky ground floor wooden beams remind you of that history.

The main house has five double bedrooms on the first floor. The main bedroom has its own ensuite shower room and a dressing room that could easily switch to a small seventh bedroom or nursery if needed.

There’s also a stylish four-piece family bathroom, helping busy mornings run more smoothly.

Downstairs, the L-shaped open plan living room / dining room gives you space to get together or relax at the end of a busy day.

The homely fitted kitchen has windows on two sides, so it stays light and bright through the day. It connects to a separate utility room, keeping laundry and day to day tasks out of sight. A new oil-fired combi boiler and upgraded insulation mean important improvements have already been handled.

Then there’s the annexe. It can be accessed from the utility or can be completely self-contained. With its own entrance, parking and private outdoor seating area (with a hot tub!), it offers genuine independence. It feels separate enough for family members who need a little independence, yet close enough to remain part of the home.

The layout includes a sitting room, dining room, a smart fitted kitchen, a double bedroom and bathroom with separate WC.

If you don’t have older relatives or teenagers who’d want to live in the annexe it’s currently run as a successful Airbnb holiday let, generating an income from £13000 to £17000 per year. With the pretty village green location, the Solway coast just a few minutes drive away and the Lake District within easy reach, it’s easy to see why it’s so popular.

There’s also a useful store room with potential to convert into an additional smaller bedroom, giving you even more flexibility as circumstances change.

The outside space is low maintenance and manageable. Ample off street parking ensures there’s plenty of room for family cars and visiting guests.

Hayton is a lovely small village, positioned just off the A596 between Aspatria and the coast. There’s only the church in the village but nearby Prospect has a friendly local pub, a village hall and a primary school that’s rated “Good” by Ofsted.

And if you need to pick up any day-to-day essentials, Aspatria is only a 5 minute drive away.

If you love the outdoors, you'll be in your element. The Solway Coast and the National Park are both within easy reach. Perfect for weekend adventures!

Large family homes that genuinely offer this level of flexibility, in a quiet village setting like this (and so close to the beach), don’t come up very often.
