The front lounge exudes comfort, centred around a beautiful log-burning stove that promises cosy winter evenings. The bay fronted lounge is filled with lots of natural light and has views across the green trees directly in front making this space completely private with nothing directly overlooking the property. The second reception room feels light and uplifting, with French doors that open directly onto the rear patio, inviting the garden into your everyday living space — perfect for summer entertaining or simply enjoying the fresh air with a morning coffee. One of the unique and quirky features of this home is that there is not only one, but two gardens. The second garden positioned at the front offering heaps of potential.
Back inside the residence, the kitchen blends style and function. Cream shaker style kitchen offers a classic and timeless design, with plenty of workspace. The double Aga oven is a focal point, with its tiled splashback and back lit cooker hood. Quartz worktops and an undermounted sink give the finishes touches - contemporary but classic, a style that never dates!
The separate utility room keeps the essentials neatly tucked away. With ceiling mounted clothes horse for drying, and space for appliances including washing machine and wine cooler! A ground floor shower room offers convenience for busy family life or visiting guests, also featuring practical downstairs WC.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which feature original fireplaces and built-in storage, adding both beauty and practicality. The additional two bedrooms are also good sizes, one currently used as a study, ideal for those working from home. The other bedroom is currently a nursery room, both offer flexibility depending on your family's needs.
The main family bathroom, in keeping with the property’s period charm, features a classic roll-top bath with shower over, bringing that timeless Victorian elegance to your everyday routine.
There is a spiral staircase, a statement in itself, that sweeps you up to the converted attic — currently a games and music room, but equally suited as a fifth bedroom, creative studio, or private retreat. The attic landing surprises with abundant storage, making clever use of every inch.
Outside, the private gated front garden is a true retreat, arranged across three tiers with decking for alfresco dining, established shrubbery for greenery and privacy, and space to personalise and grow. To the rear, a charming courtyard offers a sheltered spot for outdoor seating and useful storage, with direct access to the back of the property where a large shared driveway provides off road parking.
The property also enjoys an enviable outlook over open green space to the rear as well as the green leafy backdrop of the trees to the front. Offering the perfect blend of convenience and tranquillity, this location is just a stone’s throw from Carlisle city centre, with local amenities, the train station, and the M6 all within easy reach—yet it feels wonderfully peaceful, surrounded by greenery and calm.
With its unique combination of space, period elegance, and flexibility, this home offers so much potential to grow and adapt with you. The property must be viewed!
