58 Kirkgate, Cockermouth, Cumbria

Located to the fringe of the town centre, in a most convenient location within easy walking distance of the town centre, a most appealing, Grade II listed, mid-terrace cottage style home, offering decievingly spacious accommodation with 2 reception rooms, 2 double bedrooms and first floor bathroom.

Ideally positioned within easy walking distance of the town centre and its excellent range of amenities, 58 Kirkgate is an attractive traditional mid-terrace property offering deceptively spacious accommodation, a wealth of character and a highly convenient location.

Well maintained and thoughtfully improved by the current owner, the property has undergone a programme of sympathetic modernisation in recent years. Several rooms have been replastered, while the majority of the original sash windows have been fitted with secondary glazing, enhancing comfort and efficiency whilst preserving the property's traditional appearance. Presented throughout in a contemporary, neutral palette, the interior combines modern practicality with a number of retained period features, creating a home of charm and character.

The accommodation is larger than first impressions suggest. An entrance hall opens into an inviting front sitting room centred around a Franco Belge wood-burning stove. Beyond, the central inner hall provides access to the first floor and a generous cellar, ideal for storage. To the rear, a spacious living and dining room enjoys a second focal-point wood-burning stove by Stovax, whilst the adjoining kitchen is well appointed with a range of fitted units and integrated appliances.

The first floor comprises two well-proportioned double bedrooms together with a family bathroom, which also houses the recently replaced gas-fired central heating boiler.

Externally, the property benefits from access to a shared rear courtyard, providing a useful outdoor drying area.

The property's central position places an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities within easy reach. It also enjoys convenient access to Lorton Road, the principal route towards the stunning Buttermere Valley and the western fells of the Lake District National Park.

Whether sought as a comfortable permanent home, a stylish second residence or an investment with the potential to generate holiday letting income, 58 Kirkgate represents a superb opportunity to acquire a characterful home in one of west Cumbria's most desirable market towns. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate all that this delightful property has to offer.
