Leathwaite, Whitehaven, CA28

Occupying an elevated position in a highly sought-after area of Whitehaven, this beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached home has undergone an extensive programme of renovation over the last five years. Stylishly finished throughout and offering generous, versatile accommodation, the property combines contemporary interiors with excellent outside space, a driveway, garage and wonderful views towards the coast.

The quality of the renovation is apparent from the moment you step inside. A spacious and welcoming entrance hallway features stylish tiled flooring and provides access through to both the lounge and kitchen.

Without doubt, one of the standout features of this home is the superb open-plan lounge, dining area and kitchen. Designed with modern family life and entertaining in mind, this impressive space extends across much of the ground floor, with luxury LVT flooring flowing seamlessly throughout to create a stylish and cohesive finish.

The kitchen has been beautifully designed with a range of contrasting contemporary units, generous worktop space and integrated appliances. It opens naturally into the dining area, where there is ample room for a family dining table and chairs.

The spacious lounge provides an inviting place to relax, with a characterful exposed brick fireplace creating a striking focal point and bringing warmth and texture to the contemporary interior. The generous proportions allow for multiple seating arrangements while retaining the open and sociable feel that makes this ground floor such an appealing space.

French doors from the dining area provide plenty of natural light and give direct access to the rear, creating an excellent connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces.

Completing the ground-floor accommodation is a useful utility room and separate WC, both featuring stylish tiled flooring and adding further practicality to this impressive family home.

Heading upstairs, the current vendors have thoughtfully altered the original layout to make better use of the available space. Part of the principal bedroom has been incorporated into what was previously the smallest bedroom, resulting in three well-proportioned double bedrooms.

This clever reconfiguration makes the property particularly appealing to families, while also providing excellent flexibility for those requiring guest accommodation or a dedicated home office. The principal bedroom remains a generous double, while the rear-facing bedroom benefits from the home's elevated position and enjoys the attractive outlook towards the coast.

Also located on the first floor is the stylish family bathroom, finished to an excellent contemporary standard. Featuring both a freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower, along with striking tiling and modern fittings, it is another room that demonstrates the attention to detail found throughout the property.

Importantly, the extensive renovation undertaken during the last five years has been far more than cosmetic. Alongside the high-quality interior finish, the property has benefited from a completely new central heating system, new windows and doors throughout, and new external render, while a new roof was completed in 2025. Together, these substantial improvements underline the comprehensive nature of the renovation and provide further reassurance for prospective purchasers.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The new render, windows and doors give the home a smart, contemporary appearance, while to the front is a driveway providing off-road parking, together with a lawned garden and access to the attached garage.

To the rear, French doors open onto an elevated patio with composite decking, creating a superb spot for alfresco dining, entertaining friends and family or simply relaxing and enjoying the outlook. Thanks to the property's elevated position, there are beautiful views towards the sea and Whitehaven's famous Candlestick, which can also be enjoyed from the rear bedroom.

Steps lead down from the raised decking to the beautifully landscaped rear garden, where a generous paved patio provides a further entertaining and seating area. The different levels create distinct outdoor spaces and make excellent use of the property's elevated position.

The location is another significant advantage. The property is within easy walking distance of Whitehaven town centre, providing convenient access to its shops, amenities, restaurants, harbour and transport connections. A selection of popular local schools is also just a short drive away, making the position particularly convenient for families.

Combining a comprehensive renovation with an exceptional open-plan living space, three double bedrooms, a contemporary family bathroom, driveway and garage, landscaped gardens and attractive coastal views, this is an impressive home where the hard work has already been done.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, quality of finish and superb position this beautifully renovated Whitehaven home has to offer.
