3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

An excellent three bedroom semi-detached house with planning permission for a two storey side elevation extension and front elevation extension benefiting from beautifully landscaped gardens, workshop, studio and amazing views of the Cumbria countryside. The property is of non-traditional construction situated on a pleasant street about 20/30 minutes from local amenities. Regardless of planning, 7 Sleetbeck Road is a desirable family home.

The Accommodation

The property is accessed through double metal gates down a driveway with adjacent front garden laid with lawn. There are options to enter through the front door or through the side outhouse which provides access to the rear garden or kitchen. The outhouse currently benefits from a downstairs washroom, utility room and sun room area with sliding doors to the back garden. The kitchen is fitted with floor and wall units with a stainless steel drainer sink overlooking the front garden. The plans propose an extended kitchen with more workspace and larger pantry cupboard. A spacious hallway with corner space for use as an office provides access to the living room and upstairs. The living room is the width of the house featuring an open fire (back boiler) and two large windows which look onto the rear garden and countryside.

Upstairs there are three good sized bedrooms with the largest benefiting from fitted wardrobes. The other rooms have plenty of storage with one room currently being utilised as a crafts room. The family bathroom is complete with a bath with electric shower over, vanity unit, white hand basin and W.C. There is a loft hatch on the landing for access to the attic where the solar inverter is located for the solar panel. The solar was installed in 2015 and ownership is transferrable. It currently pays back approximately £500/£600 per annum.

Externally there is plenty of off-street parking to the front of the house and driveway. There is a small garden at the front with gate and shared path bordered with a fence and hedges. The rear garden has been very well maintained and landscaped boasting a beautiful array of flowers, trees and trimmed hedges with a second lawn/drying green, garden shed (subject to negotiation), summerhouse (not included in the sale) and large, insulated workshop with electrical provisions, the perfect man cave. The garden enjoys pleasant views.
