Butterfield Close, Brigham, CA13

An Exceptional Five Bedroom Family Home With Four Floors Of Flexibility. This modern detached on an award winning cul-de-sac offers four-storey living with fell views, plenty of space for hobbies, family time and more.

This stylish detached family home sits at the end of an award winning family-friendly close, built by Washington Homes in 2019.

It’s spread across four substantial floors (the total internal area measures 198m2 / 2,130ft2) with a thoughtful design to make the most of the hillside location.

Somewhat unusually, you climb steps to enter on the first floor. There’s a large lounge at the front with a balcony and fell views and a stylish kitchen / diner at the rear.

The separate kitchen / diner has stylish modern fittings and plenty of space for family meals or entertaining friends. The dining area leads directly to the rear garden. 

It’s a large south-facing sun trap with a composite decked seating area, a lovely pergola and plenty of privacy thanks to the open fields which lie behind the back fence.

The ground floor has a built-in single garage, a handy utility room and a spacious reception room that stretches from front to back.

This versatile ground floor layout does offer total flexibility. You could use the 8.5m / 28ft reception room as a gym, games room, cinema room or even a home office.

But the utility room is only lacking an oven to turn it into a fully equipped kitchen. This opens up the possibility of adding a bathroom to create a home-within-a-home for a teenager or perhaps an older relative who struggles with stairs.

The second floor is home to four of the five bedrooms. Three of these are good-sized doubles, one with its own en-suite shower room. 

There’s also a stylish four-piece family bathroom.

The top floor provides a tranquil retreat away from the more sociable lower floors – the master bedroom suite. 

This “away from it all” space includes a large double bedroom, an en-suite shower room and fantastic fell views from the front and scenic countryside views to the rear. It’s the perfect place to escape after a busy day.

Outside, the property benefits from a large driveway and a side yard, ideal for storing bins, bikes or even a caravan. 

Butterfield Close is a lovely quiet cul-de-sac of family homes and bungalows that’s popular with families.

And Brigham village is perfect if you love getting out into the countryside. It’s located just off the A66 between Workington and Cockermouth, with miles of open fields right on your doorstep.

But that doesn’t mean you’re stuck out in the sticks. It’s only a 6 minute drive to the centre of Cockermouth or 12 minutes to Workington. 

And if you love to explore the National Park, Bassenthwaite is the closest lake. It’s less than 15 minutes drive away, or only 50 minutes on the bike. 

For families with younger children, St Bridget's CofE Primary School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is a pleasant 10 minute walk through the village. 

For older kids, the journey to Cockermouth School (for 11 - 18 year olds) takes around 10 minutes in the car or 20 minutes on the X5 bus.

This stylish 5 year old Washington Homes property has been wonderfully looked after by the current owners. It’s still in show home condition, so you could move in and make yourselves at home

We’re expecting plenty of interest in this superb family home - call to arrange a viewing.
