Description

Positioned within one of Carlisle’s most convenient and well-connected locations, 55 St Nicholas Street is a deceptively spacious Grade II-listed three-bedroom mid-terrace home that offers far more than first meets the eye. Combining character, generous room proportions and exciting future potential, this impressive property presents a fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers, growing families or investors searching for a home full of flexibility and charm, all within walking distance of the city centre.

One of the most exciting features of this wonderful property is the substantial attic room located above the first floor. Accessed via a pull-down ladder from the landing, this large and versatile space already benefits from two Velux windows and offers huge potential for full conversion, subject to the necessary planning approvals. Whether transformed into an additional bedroom, stylish home office, studio or hobby room, the possibilities here are incredibly exciting and add another dimension to an already spacious home.

The property itself is beautifully presented and ready to move straight into, benefiting from gas central heating and double glazing, allowing buyers to comfortably settle in from day one while still having opportunities to personalise and enhance over time.

From the moment you arrive, the attractive traditional frontage and characterful appearance immediately hint at the charm waiting inside. 

Stepping through the front door into the entrance vestibule, there is practical space for coats, shoes and welcoming family and guests into the home.

Straight ahead lies the front-facing lounge, a warm and inviting room full of character and comfort. A feature fireplace with a gas fire creates a cosy focal point that is perfect for relaxing evenings, while modern grey wooden flooring adds a contemporary touch and complements the room beautifully. Large windows allow natural light to flow throughout the space, enhancing the welcoming atmosphere.

Moving further through the property, the dining kitchen is another standout feature and undoubtedly forms the heart of the home. 

Before entering the kitchen itself, a fantastic under-stairs storage cupboard provides excellent practical storage - something every family home benefits from.

The kitchen is wonderfully spacious and fitted with a range of cream gloss wall and base units, complemented by generous work surfaces. Taking centre stage within the room is the impressive Rangemaster Toledo cooker, perfectly positioned within the original inglenook fireplace and creating a striking focal point for the space. 

For anyone who enjoys cooking, baking or entertaining, this kitchen is guaranteed to impress. There is plumbing and space for a washer/dryer, while the generous proportions of the room easily accommodate a dining table and chairs, making it a sociable and practical family space. A large window floods the room with natural light, and a uPVC door provides direct access out to the rear yard.

From the kitchen, the enclosed staircase rises to the first floor where the generous proportions continue throughout. All three bedrooms are excellent double rooms, something rarely found in homes at this price point and location. 

Each room offers plenty of space for furniture arrangements while large windows ensure the rooms feel bright, airy and comfortable.

Completing the first floor is the modern shower room, fitted with a large walk-in shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin. Fully aqua-panelled walls, vinyl flooring, a frosted glass window and PVC ceiling create a clean, low-maintenance and practical finish perfectly suited for everyday living.

The attic room above is a particularly exciting addition to the home. Even in its current form, it provides superb storage or hobby space, but the true appeal lies in its future potential. With excellent ceiling height and two large Velux windows allowing natural light to pour in, this room could become something truly special with the relevant permissions in place.

Externally, the enclosed rear yard offers a pleasant and private outdoor space perfect for sitting out with a morning coffee, enjoying a glass of wine on summer evenings or simply relaxing after a busy day. A wooden gate leads to the shared side lane, providing useful access and practicality for bikes, bins or additional outdoor storage.

The location of St Nicholas Street is another major attraction and one of the key reasons homes here remain consistently popular. Positioned just a short walk from Carlisle city centre, the property offers immediate access to a huge range of shops, restaurants, cafés, bars and everyday amenities, making daily life incredibly convenient.

St Nicholas Retail Park is only moments away and provides excellent shopping options, including an Asda supermarket, while nearby transport links and Carlisle train station make commuting and travel straightforward. Families will appreciate the close proximity to local schools and parks, while professionals benefit from the ability to walk directly into the city for work, socialising or leisure.

For buyers seeking a spacious character home with future potential, city convenience and versatile accommodation, 55 St Nicholas Street represents an exciting opportunity that should not be overlooked.
