Edge Hill, Whitehaven, CA28 6DJ

The first thing you'll notice - before you even park up - is the view. As you make your way down the private no-through road, the harbour opens up in front of you. It’s a moment worth pausing for - and one you’ll never take for granted, no matter how many times you see it.

Then you head inside, and the details start stacking up. The geometric tiles in the porch. The restored hallway beyond. This is a home with its history intact - where original character hasn’t been stripped out in the attempt to modernise or update.

At the front, the bay-windowed lounge is full of warmth and light, with a lovely fireplace that pulls the room together beautifully. Next door, the dining room gives you original wood floors and French doors out to the small rear yard - perfect for a morning coffee or summer evening catch-up.

And then there’s the kitchen.

Set at the back of the house, it’s the heart of the home - complete with exposed brickwork, herringbone flooring, an island and an inglenook. There’s a separate utility behind it too, keeping the kitchen calm and clutter-free.

On the first floor, two double bedrooms give you space to spread out, while the third makes a great nursery, office or guest room. The family bathroom’s a standout too - with its rolltop bath, calming palette and just the right amount of retro.

Head up again and you’ll find the loft has been converted into a spacious top-floor bedroom - quiet, bright and brilliantly flexible.

Outside, there’s a small yard with storage at the back. There’s space to park out front - and of course you can enjoy those stunning views out over Whitehaven Harbour.

The front garden offers a lovely space for socializing, while those with a green thumb can explore the hidden potential of the 'secret garden' that meanders down into the trees.

If you want to head down to the harbour or the town centre shops it only takes a couple of minutes in the car or less than 10 minutes on foot. Tesco is even closer - only a couple of minutes away for the weekly shop.

If you have young children, St James CofE Infant School is less than a 10 minute walk away.

This Victorian four-bed terrace pairs restored period charm with show-stopping harbour views - I’m expecting plenty of interest so call now to arrange a viewing.
