High Street, Workington, CA14

Occupying a highly convenient position on the edge of Workington town centre, this impressive four-bedroom semi-detached property has undergone a superb transformation, creating a beautifully finished home that feels fresh, elegant and contemporary whilst carefully retaining the period details that give the property its individuality.

From the moment you enter, the quality and character of the house are immediately apparent. The entrance hallway makes a memorable first impression, retaining a beautiful original stained-glass top light together with decorative cornicing and corbels, complemented by wall panelling, a striking dark staircase and elegant lighting. It provides an immediate introduction to the thoughtful blend of old and new found throughout the home.

At the heart of the property is the superb open-plan kitchen and living area, a bright and exceptionally stylish space designed equally well for everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen has been finished in a timeless neutral palette, with extensive cabinetry, integrated appliances and beautiful quartz work surfaces, together with a substantial central peninsula providing an excellent focal point and sociable space. Herringbone wood effect flooring flows through the room, while carefully chosen lighting and brass-toned details add warmth and a luxurious finish.

Beyond the kitchen, the living area opens into a magnificent full-width bay window, flooding the room with natural light. Importantly, the original panelling surrounding the bay has been retained, giving this contemporary space a wonderful connection to the character of the original house.

For those wanting a more formal or peaceful reception room, the separate lounge is equally impressive. Generously proportioned and beautifully presented, it features another huge bay window with original surrounding panelling. High ceilings, elegant décor and excellent natural light reinforce the wonderful sense of space, making this an inviting room in which to relax away from the main open-plan living area.

Practicality has not been overlooked. The ground floor also provides a dedicated utility room and separate WC, while the property benefits from useful basement storage.

Upstairs, the generous accommodation continues with four bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a particularly impressive room, enjoying excellent proportions and its own beautifully appointed en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms provide considerable flexibility for family living, guests or home working.

The main bathroom has been designed to deliver a genuine sense of luxury, with marble-effect tiling, elegant brass fittings, a freestanding bath and separate shower. The same attention to detail seen throughout the rest of the renovation is very much evident here.

Externally, the property has plenty to offer. There is an ample private driveway providing parking for two vehicles, together with a shared driveway running alongside the property and providing access to the large detached garage.

Beyond the garage lies an attractive and thoughtfully landscaped rear garden, providing a delightful outdoor extension to the living accommodation. The garden combines stylish contemporary paved patio areas with lawn, decorative slate chippings and raised stone-edged borders containing an established variety of shrubs, mature trees and colourful planting. The generous patio creates an excellent setting for outdoor seating, dining and entertaining, while the different levels and mature planting add character and interest to the space.

A useful detached garden store/outbuilding provides additional storage and further enhances the practicality of the garden.

Situated in a popular area of Workington, just on the edge of the town centre, the property combines an attractive residential setting with convenient access to the town's amenities.

This is a home which deserves to be viewed in person. The combination of substantial four-bedroom accommodation, beautiful period proportions, carefully preserved original features, superb contemporary living space and an exceptionally stylish renovation creates a property that is both distinctive and immediately ready to enjoy.
