Vicarage Lane, Cockermouth

A PROJECT IN THE MAKING TO UPGRADE AS YOU WISH, THE RESULT OF WHICH COULD BE YOUR DREAM HOME!
We are absolutely delighted to show you this super four bedroomed detached house!
Occupying a lovely position within a sought after residential area, this has the potential to be the home of your dreams. Having been built in 1969, the house has been loved and cherished by the same family since 1971 and it offers some great space internally. However, equally important is the plot on which it sits - it's set back slightly from the road offering a larger than expected front garden, along with a drive and single garage. There's space to the side and it opens up to the rear to a delightful and private oasis - perfect for family life.
Inside, there's a welcoming hallway, a particularly bright and cheerful lounge with dining room off and a good sized kitchen beyond. Upstairs, 4 double bedrooms and a bathroom await.
Vicarage Lane has always been a popular location - sitting just off Lorton Road with quick access to the town centre, Lorton Valley and A66, it's also within reach of Outstanding schools, sports and leisure facilities.
