Newlaithes Avenue,Carlisle,CA2 6PX

A Family Home That's Been Designed Around How Modern Families Actually Live. A lounge that flows from front to back, a conservatory beyond that, a separate kitchen entrance for the school run - and three versatile double bedrooms waiting upstairs. Property ref: KD0516

Most family homes make you adapt your life to fit the layout. You end up eating in the kitchen because the lounge isn't big enough for a table, or everyone piles through the same door at the end of the day and the hallway becomes a bottleneck of bags and coats and shoes. So many shoes.

47 Newlaithes Avenue has been laid out in a way that makes more sense.

The lounge runs the full depth of the house - almost 19ft - so there's space for a  sofa end and a dining/homework end without either feeling squeezed. 

Beyond that, the conservatory creates a third space, bright and airy with doors out to the garden. It's the kind of room that could become a dedicated dining room or homework spot, a reading corner or just somewhere to sit and relax.

The kitchen has its own separate entrance from the front - so the school run comes in through the kitchen, bags go down, snacks get munched, and the hall stays exactly as you left it. It sounds like a small thing until you've lived in a house that doesn't have it. 

The kitchen itself is a good size, with plenty of storage space in the fitted units, black granite-effect worktops, a range cooker and a small breakfast bar.

Upstairs, it’s unusual given all three bedrooms comfortably fit a double bed. The main bedroom has a full-width mirrored sliding wardrobe. 

The bathroom is actually a shower room - fully tiled in black and white, with a corner shower enclosure, a heated chrome towel rail and a window that lets the steam out.

The back garden is a good one. A large Indian sandstone patio runs directly off the conservatory, with a lawn beyond and a small shed at the far end. Fenced all round, easy to maintain and with enough space for the kids to actually get out and play. There’s space to park two cars on the block paved drive at the front.

Newlaithes Avenue is a popular street with families for good reason. Chances Park is a short walk away - ideal for burning off some energy after school. Newlaithes Infant and Junior Schools, both rated “Good” by Ofsted, are less than a 5 minute walk away.

Richard Rose Morton Academy is about a 15-minute walk or a quick bike ride for older kids. 

And the city centre is less than 10 minutes in the car or 25 minutes on the bus if you’re hitting the shops or meeting up with friends.

This is a versatile home that's been thoughtfully reconfigured and set up for a busy modern family life, on a popular street that families keep choosing for a reason.
