3 bed semi-detached house for sale

The Garth, Crosby-On-Eden, Carlisle CA6

No One Ever Said "I Should Have Waited A Bit Longer Before Moving To Crosby On Eden". Embrace village life with the pub, the “Outstanding” school and the river walks - from a stylish chain free semi with field views from your big back garden and lovely log burner lounge. Property ref: KD0516

There's a particular kind of Sunday that only exists in the right village. A walk by the River Eden before lunch, a pint at the pub in the afternoon, and an evening in front of the stove with no particular reason to be anywhere else. That's not a weekend away. That's just life in Crosby-on-Eden.

The lounge is the heart of it - a comfortable room with a multi-fuel stove in the chimney breast and an arch through to the kitchen-diner beyond. Photos don't fully convey how well the two spaces work together; the lounge feels settled and relaxed, the kitchen feels bright and sociable, and the arch between them keeps everything connected without each room losing its own purpose.

The kitchen-diner stretches the full width of the house (it measures over 21 feet) and has everything a busy family needs - a full run of fitted units, integrated double oven, hob, dishwasher, fridge and freezer, a 1.5 sink, a walk-in pantry and engineered oak flooring throughout.

French doors open straight out to the conservatory, which in turn leads to the garden - so on a decent day the whole back of the house opens up nicely.

The conservatory itself is a welcome addition - currently used as a sitting room - with French doors onto the patio and lawn. From here the field views open up properly, and you get a real sense of the plot size. There's a large lawn, a choice of either decking or paved patio seating areas, an outbuilding and gated access at the side.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms - two doubles and a single. The main bedroom looks out to the cul-de-sac and the 2nd double bedroom has the best views at the back, looking out over the fields. The shower room has a double cubicle with a waterfall head, pedestal basin and WC.

Back on the ground floor, a utility room and separate WC keep things practical.

The village itself is another real draw. The River Eden is less than a 10 minute walk away for weekend walks and you can stop off at the Stag Inn on your way back to reward yourself with a well-earned pint.

This quiet village could be the perfect place to bring up a young family. The village primary school, rated "Outstanding" by Ofsted, is literally a 1 minute walk away.

While younger children benefit from a top-notch education in the village, older kids have a good choice of secondary schools in Brampton or Carlisle. This includes the prestigious Austin Friars independent day school.

Also, living in Crosby-on-Eden means you're only a 15-minute drive from Carlisle city centre and six minutes from Junction 44 of the M6.

It’s chain free, which means no waiting around for someone else to sort themselves out. When you're ready, you can move.

If you've been looking for a family home that delivers on what life in an idyllic village is supposed to feel like - this stylish semi is worth seeing in person.
