Description

Roughly Halfway Between Workington & Whitehaven - But The Waterfall And Wildlife Makes It Feel A World Away. You can’t filter your property search for the sound of a stream or the joy of red squirrels on your decking - but this spacious bungalow has both.

From the moment you step out onto the artificially-turfed raised decking, you'll hear it - the gentle rush of water from the stream just beyond the back fence. Glance up and there’s a flash of red in the trees - your regular garden guests. And while the shops, schools and towns are just minutes away, here it feels like time moves differently.

This detached three-bedroom bungalow isn’t just neat and tidy – it’s been updated to a superb, stylish standard - with a layout that works beautifully for everyday life. 

The 475 ft2 (63m2) open plan lounge and dining space is the heart of the home, flowing out through sliding patio doors to that peaceful garden and tree-lined backdrop.

The spacious entrance hall with built-in storage leads into a light and bright fitted kitchen, three bedrooms (two doubles and a single) and a shower room with a large walk-in enclosure.

At the rear, tiered, low-maintenance gardens mean you can spend more time enjoying the idyllic surroundings. 

The double driveway, large garage and extra rear storage room tick all the practical boxes too.

Taking in the tranquil woodland and wildlife at the rear, you wouldn’t guess that you’re only a few minutes drive from the A595, giving you easy access to both Workington and Whitehaven.

Unless you need to go there for work you may not need to head into town too often, as Distington has everything you’ll need day-to-day, with a McColl’s convenience store, a chippy and doctors surgery. There’s even a Burger King and a Starbucks at the A595 roundabout.

You can’t filter your property search by trickling streams, waterfalls or red squirrels on the decking – but if you could, this updated and spacious bungalow in Distington would be top of the list.

I’m expecting plenty of interest so call today to arrange a viewing.
