1 Portland Place, Penrith, Cumbria

Located to the fringe of Penrith town centre, within easy walking distance of the broad range of schools, facilities and amenities available, a newly renovated, beautifully presented Victorian townhouse offering contemporary and spacious living accommodation, with 5/6 bedrooms, 3 being ensuite, arranged over 5 floors.

Built in local red sandstone, number 1 Portland Place is a fine example of the Victorian architecture, with elegant architectural detailing, typical of this section of Penrith, known as the "New Streets" conservation area.

Handy for the town centre, with the shops being a level, 5 minute walk, the property lies at the foot of Wordsworth Street, connecting it with the walks and woodlands of The Beacon, and giving excellent access to the golf course and Eden Valley via Lazonby and Langwathby.

Offered to the market in excellent order, the property has recently undergone a thorough renovation process, using respected local builders and joiners, creating a contemporary family home, whilst retaining and enhancing many original features.

With accommodation arranged over 5 floors, the front of the property has a forecourt with a sandstone dwarf wall with wrought iron railings, with an arched doorway leading to the vestibule and entrance hall, with Minton style tiled flooring and wood panelling. The dining room to the front, with its sandstone bay window, is open to a fabulous kitchen, from Atlantis Kitchens of Kendal, fully equipped with white granite worksurfaces and Rangemaster range cooker, along with a matching central island with integrated dishwasher and sink. To the rear is a generous utility room, with additional cooking facilities, downstairs WC and connecting doors leading to the rear outside space and cellar, which consists of a useful pantry / store room and main room, presently used as a gym.

A return staircase from the entrance hall leads to the first floor which consists of a single bedroom, currently utilised as a study, along with a double bedroom, with ensuite shower room, and a full width, first floor, wood panelled lounge again with bay window to the front.

The second floor comprises an further double bedroom, with ensuite shower room, and the master bedroom suite, with ensuite 4 piece bathroom from Fergusons of Penrith.

The top floor attic rooms provide two further double bedrooms, along with a study and shower room.

The rear of the property comprises a private, enclosed sandstone flagged courtyard with a high wall and a good amount of sitting space with a covered gazebo entertaining area. Pedestrian access to rear.
