Egremont Road, Hensingham, CA28

This fine four bed detached family home enjoys a truly special setting on the outskirts of Whitehaven, offering the perfect balance between countryside seclusion and everyday convenience. Tucked away just off the A595, the home is set within generous grounds and backs onto open countryside, giving the impression of rural living while remaining within easy reach of the town centre, schools, hospital, and key transport links.

Internally, the property offers well planned, spacious accommodation across two floors. An entrance porch and hallway lead into a bright and inviting lounge, which opens seamlessly into a charming sun room with panoramic views over the garden and surrounding fields. The kitchen features a central island and double doors opening into a separate dining room, ideal for family gatherings and entertaining. A side porch, utility room, and ground floor cloakroom/WC complete the downstairs layout. Upstairs, there are four generously sized bedrooms, a stylish four piece family bathroom, an additional WC, and access to a substantial loft space that offers excellent potential for conversion, subject to the necessary consents.

Externally, the grounds are a standout feature. A driveway with turning space provides offroad parking for two to three vehicles and leads to an integral single garage. The front garden is neatly landscaped, while the rear garden offers a well maintained lawn, patio seating areas, and an array of colourful wildflowers - all set against a backdrop of open fields and rolling countryside.

This property is a rare find, an ideal family home or a superb relocation opportunity for buyers seeking space, privacy, and access to both town and nature.
