9 Castlegate, Cockermouth, CA13

If you have a passion for historic property then take a good look at this elegant Grade II listed property in the historic centre of Cockermouth. Located adjacent to the castle and just out of the town centre on Castlegate, this is perfectly positioned for access to all the pubs, bars, shops, restaurants and coffee shops, plus the High School. The former B&B offers versatile accommodation, spread over three floors with a total of seven bedrooms, three with en-suite facilities. In addition there is an elegant living room with fireplace, a generous kitchen/diner with Aga range cooker and walk-in pantry plus a courtyard garden area to the rear. The property retains many original character features including a gorgeous 'castle' spiral staircase and although it will benefit from some upgrading, it is a home you can enjoy living in and improving as time/funds allow.
