Holme Street, Appleby-in-Westmorland, CA16

Welcome Home To Westwood...

Westwood on Holme Street presents an elegant and characterful end of terrace home, believed to date from the early Edwardian period, offering a wonderful balance of period charm and modern practicality. The property immediately captures the eye with its solid brick façade, softened by a rendered gable end, and complemented by sandstone quoins that subtly tie it to its neighbouring home. Approached via a gated entrance, a generous front patio provides a welcoming and sociable space, setting the tone for what lies within.

Stepping through the composite front door, finished in a tasteful sage and white, you are welcomed into a hallway that offers a gentle nod to the home’s heritage. An original stained glass window, with an Art Deco influence, filters light beautifully into the space, while contemporary flooring adds a fresh and practical touch underfoot. There is also a useful under stairs cupboard, ideal for coats, boots and everyday essentials.

The sitting room is a delightful space, centred around a square bay window with original stained glass panels, thoughtfully retained and now double glazed. Deep stripped pine skirting boards and an original ceiling rose add depth and authenticity, while the bay itself creates the perfect reading nook, bathed in natural light. The room feels both cosy and refined, a space that invites you to pause and relax.

To the rear, the dining room offers generous proportions and benefits from a dual aspect, drawing in light from both the west and north. This creates a wonderfully bright and airy setting for entertaining or family meals, and flows seamlessly into the kitchen beyond. The kitchen has been designed with a softer aesthetic in mind, featuring curved cabinetry and marble effect work surfaces that lend a gentle elegance to the space. Finished in a white gloss, it feels fresh and contemporary, with ample room for appliances including a washing machine, under counter fridge, and a slot in oven with hob. A west facing window above the sink ensures the space is filled with afternoon light.

A step down leads to the rear of the property, where a paved patio provides an enclosed outdoor area. There is a right of access for a neighbouring property, and beyond lies a temporary car park, currently in place for approximately a year, with future use yet to be confirmed. Internally, glazed panel doors allow light to travel effortlessly throughout the ground floor, enhancing the overall sense of space.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with three well proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a south facing aspect to the front, allowing for excellent natural light, and comfortably accommodates a double bed. A second bedroom sits to the rear, overlooking the yard, while the third provides flexibility as a guest room, study or nursery. Original internal doors, painted in a soft satin finish, add further character and continuity.

The accommodation is served by a modern shower room, fitted with a semi circular enclosure, white tiling with a mosaic border, a pedestal wash basin and low flush WC. Heating throughout the property is provided via electric panel and night storage heaters, and the home benefits from a pressurised unvented hot water system.

Westwood offers a unique opportunity to acquire a home that blends period detailing with contemporary touches, all within a convenient and well regarded setting. Having previously been a successful rental property, it will appeal equally to investors, first time buyers or those seeking a charming and manageable home with character and warmth.
