Hotchberry Road, Brigham, Cockermouth, CA13 0TQ

Situated in the ever-popular village of Brigham, just outside Cockermouth, this exceptional five-bedroom detached home offers the perfect balance of striking architectural design and modern family living. The property stands beautifully with its exposed stonework, blending a sense of timeless charm with a contemporary finish. From the moment you arrive, the attention to detail and high standard of presentation is clear, with electric gates opening to a grand driveway large enough for multiple vehicles, alongside a substantial garage and wraparound gardens that frame the house in greenery.

Inside, the home has been carefully designed with modern lifestyles in mind. The heart of the property is a truly impressive open-plan kitchen and dining room, finished to a high standard with slate grey cabinets, a fabulous central island, and sleek contemporary fittings. Surrounded by windows and bifold door, this light-filled room enjoys wonderful views of the rear garden and provides a seamless connection to the outdoors, making it the perfect setting for entertaining or relaxed family living. The large living room provides a more intimate and cosy space, complete with a wood stove, while a separate sunroom with a striking roof lantern is currently used as a pool and games room but could easily be adapted to suit a variety of needs. A spacious utility room adds further practicality, offering space for laundry appliances, an additional sink, and more countertop space, while the grand hallway makes a memorable first impression and sets the tone for the rest of the house.

Upstairs continues the sense of scale and comfort, with a generous landing leading to the well-appointed bedrooms. The principal suite is a sanctuary in its own right, boasting lots of natural lighting, a dressing area, and a luxurious ensuite bathroom with a double walk-in shower and a freestanding bathtub. There are three further double bedrooms, each spacious and versatile, one that benefits from its own modern ensuite, along with a smaller double currently used as a home office. The family bathroom is finished to an exceptional standard, featuring a striking marble design, Jacuzzi bath, and a double walk-in shower that makes it both functional and stylish.

The outdoor space is just as fabulous as the interiors. The property sits on a generous plot with extensive wraparound gardens that provide privacy and a sense of seclusion. To the rear, a charming woodland pathway leads to a private wellness retreat, complete with its very own sauna – a truly unique and indulgent feature that adds something very unique to this home. Beyond its beauty and lifestyle appeal, the property also benefits from a large number of solar panels, significantly boosting its energy efficiency and making it more environmentally friendly. This thoughtful addition reduces running costs and adds to the property’s long-term sustainability, reflecting a modern approach to family living.

Brigham itself is a welcoming village with a strong community spirit, ideally positioned just minutes from Cockermouth town centre, with its independent shops, cafes, and amenities. The area is well-regarded for its schools, making this property a great choice for families, while the Lake District National Park lies close by, offering endless opportunities for outdoor adventure.
