Harbour View, Whitehaven, CA28 9AD

Could You Get Used To Waking Up To Panoramic Harbour Views Every Morning? This substantial end terrace is perched high above the harbour. It’s a fabulous family home with a sun trap back garden and a large working garage, so it’s not all about the views.

This impressive property has been lovingly looked after by the same family for over 40 years. And when you see the views from the master bedroom you’ll begin to understand why they’ve stayed so long!

Now it’s time for them to move on and another family to fall in love with 1 Harbour View.

Even without the views, it’s a spacious family home with a sociable ground floor, three decent sized bedrooms (two doubles and a single) along with an additional versatile loft room.

And the south facing garden has a surprisingly large lawn where you can sit out and enjoy the sun all day. Petrolheads may prefer to stay indoors and tinker in the large garage that even has an inspection pit.

It has a traditional 19th century layout with two large reception rooms that have been opened up to create one more sociable space. They’re tastefully decorated and retain many period features such as the wooden sash windows, decorative ceiling roses and finely detailed cornices.

The kitchen / diner is much more modern, with fitted shaker-style units giving a nod to the past but with a thoroughly 21st century integrated oven, hob and hood. 

There’s room for a dining table so it will be perfect for catching up over a cuppa or quick midweek meals.

A couple of steps lead to the practical utility room that also has a seating area and would be a great little home office where you can setup your laptop.

The first floor has two double bedrooms (including the one at the front with the fabulous views), a large single bedroom and the four piece family bathroom.

The bathroom is the one room in the house that you’d want to update. There’s plenty of room to create something luxurious and opulent.

The loft has been converted into another versatile space that could be put to so many different uses. 

Harbour View is a quiet no through road so you won’t get any passing traffic other than the occasional walker. That means you can sit out on the low maintenance front garden and enjoy views of the harbour, marina and the Candlestick. 

If you’re a keen walker yourself you can pick up the Coastal Path at the end of the street

It’s only a short walk down the hill into town or a couple of minutes in the car.

If you have young children it's a 20 minute walk or five minutes in the car to St James Infant School or the Junior School (both schools are pretty much on the same site).

Despite its 19th century origins this substantial family home will be relatively inexpensive to heat, thanks to solar panels on the roof which will also provide a small income through the feed-in tariff.

There’s no doubt that the fantastic panoramic views are what’s going to attract your initial attention but this spacious family home offers so much more. It’s in great condition, having been lovingly lived in by the current owners for some time.
