Moorlands Drive, Stainburn, Workington, CA14 4UJ

Self Built, Secluded And So Much Space – A Gated Family Home That Feels Bigger, Brighter And Calmer Than The Rest. Thoughtfully designed and built by the current owners, with a huge lounge, open-plan kitchen diner and a garden that just keeps on going.

This one’s a bit special. Tucked away behind double gates, it’s one of just two homes in this private little pocket of Moorlands Drive - no passing cars, no compromise on space, and no question that it’s the best spot on the whole estate.

Designed and built by the current owners, this isn’t your typical cookie-cutter family home. Every room has been carefully considered, every space planned for real family life. And you feel that difference the moment you walk through the door.

The entrance hall is bright, open and welcoming. 

Turn right and you’ll find a huge lounge that runs the full depth of the house, with a bay window to the front and French doors opening straight out to the vast south facing back garden. There’s underfloor heating throughout, so you can keep things cosy without ruining the clean lines with radiators.

At the rear, the open plan kitchen-diner is where this home really comes to life. Stylish, modern and flooded with light, it’s a sociable space that works brilliantly whether you’re grabbing a coffee at the breakfast bar or hosting a full-on family gathering. 

There’s loads of room for a big dining table and a relaxed sofa area, with Velux windows and doors out to the garden keeping things bright all day long.

There’s a separate utility room and a handy downstairs shower room just off the kitchen - ideal for muddy kids or soggy dogs. You’ve also got access to the built-in garage from here, so everything’s connected and practical (as well as opening up the potential for a future conversion, subject to planning permission of course).

Upstairs, there are three proper double bedrooms, all generously sized and full of natural light. The main bedroom has its own ensuite and a walk-in wardrobe, giving you that little bit of grown-up luxury. The main family bathroom is modern, fresh and ready to go.

But it’s the outside that really sets this home apart.

The back garden is huge - far bigger than you might expect. The bottom end is technically on licence from the Highways Agency but you’ve got full use of it and can enjoy the extra green space and make the most of the open feel it brings.

With two separate patio areas to catch the sun at different times of day, it’s a garden that works whether you’re chasing the shade or the last of the evening light.

Parking’s no problem either. There’s plenty of space out front, plus there’s the integral garage for storage or even more secure parking.

And you’re not far from anything. Stainburn gives you that welcoming village feel, but you’re only five minutes from Workington town centre, the Ashfield Schools and Workington Academy - ideal if you’re juggling work, school runs and clubs.

It’s the kind of home that reflects so well on the current owners and embodies everything they built it for: calm, comfort and space to grow.

And now it’s time for them to move on and let another family enjoy it.
