Great Strickland, Penrith, CA10

Welcome to 1 The Croft, a wonderful three bedroom semi-detached house situated in the centre of the sought after village of Great Strickland. Having recently undergone an extensive program of refurbishment throughout, this turnkey condition house is the perfect home for buyers looking to move to this countryside village.

As you pull up to the gateway, you are greeted with a substantial paved driveway, able to provide parking for a number of vehicles with the option to extend this via the lawned garden area if required. Edged with established shrubs, dry stone walls and fencing, the front garden offers a degree of privacy and a pleasant view from the front door and living room window.

On going through the front door, step into the hallway, having been recently carpeted and opened up to provide a bright and welcoming space with some useful storage. From here you can access the living room, kitchen, or climb a few steps to the store cupboard before heading up the stairs to the first floor.

Taking a right, head into the living room and take in the natural light that streams in thanks to the dual aspect windows. Whisking your head around, you cannot help but settle your eyes on the fireplace. Featuring a decoratively tiled hearth and brick surround, this multifuel burner with integrated back boiler will provide you with many cosy nights when those chilly nights come along.

Walking back into the hallway, you'll find the kitchen on your right. A spacious and light space thanks to the removal of some of the walls and the large window overlooking the rear garden. Within the kitchen itself, you'll find the newly fitted kitchen suite, finished in a gorgeous navy blue with matching wood effect countertops, it extends around the perimeter of the room before ending in a very useful breakfast bar area. Complete with new appliances, a dual drainer sink looking out over the garden with space and plumbing for a washing machine along with plenty of cupboard space, the kitchen can certainly cater for all your cooking needs!

Ascending the plush carpeted stairs, you'll get to the recently created store room, which houses the electrical system and provides further storage for a number of items as required.

Continuing upwards, you'll reach the equally bright landing area that provides access to the bedrooms, loft and the family bathroom.

Poke your head around the corner and have a look at the new and contemporary bathroom suite that's been installed. Stylishly finished, with chrome, stone effect panelling and that lovely flourish of blue, this three piece suite provides all the elements you would expect from a modern bathroom.

In the room next door, we have the master bedroom, a serene sleeping space complete with large windows looking out to the garden and the open fields beyond. Just imagine waking up on sunny morning and seeing newly born lambs bounding around the field, all from your bed.

On the opposite side of the landing we have bedroom two, a lovely space with views over the village and beyond to the Pennines and next to it bedroom three, a single bedroom that also benefits from those glorious countryside views.

Having finished with the internal rooms, it's time to go downstairs and out through the kitchen door and into the south east facing rear garden. Arguably the jewel in the crown of 1 The Croft, this enormous outside space just keeps on going, complete with side access to the front garden and driveway, a large garden store that could be altered or added to if needed, a generous sized patio area and an expansive area of lawned and chipped garden that could be used for a multitude of purposes. One thing is for certain, compared to most modern homes, your garden will definitely be bigger!

For those more adventurous buyers, if you needed to extend the house (much like your neighbour has previously done), you could do so fairly easily and still be left with plenty of outside space to entertain friends and family.

Away from the house and you'll find yourself in the village itself. Situated a short drive away from Penrith, the A6 and with country roads providing easy access to the rest of the Eden Valley, while you benefit from countryside living you certainly wont feel isolated. With a great community spirit, a fantastic village pub and plenty of well regarded primary schools and further amenities but a short drive away, Great Strickland is the perfect blend of all worlds to relocate too.

Available immediately with no onward chain, 1 The Croft is not one to be missed, so book your viewing in now to fully appreciate what's on offer!
