Church Meadows, Great Broughton, Cockermouth, CA13 0LE

Property Description

This Was A Great Little Starter Home Back In 1998 But It’s Not So Little Now. It’s grown up (and out) into a versatile family home in an affordable village that’s handy for Cockermouth but where you get a lot more house for your money. 

If you work in Cockermouth or Maryport but want to make the most of your budget Great Broughton is worth checking out. It’s less than 10 minutes drive from either Maryport or Cockermouth (and only 15 minutes to Workington). 

What started out as a 2 bedroom semi now has three bedrooms and a lot more besides. It all adds up to a package that would cost a lot more if you were looking in one of the towns.

The living room is spacious with a staircase leading up to the first floor and a neat bookshelf to make maximum use of the understairs space.

You’ll love the spacious kitchen/diner, which is without doubt the social hub of the home. By opening up the kitchen and dining room it’s created a great space for cooking, eating and relaxing together. 

The dining room leads through to an additional versatile room which could be an additional lounge, a teenager’s games room or a home office. 

Double doors lead from the dining room out onto a large patioed area which attracts the evening sun until late.

The large, low maintenance west facing rear garden is a lovely place to sit out, enjoy the sun and have a cuppa.

Upstairs has two double bedrooms, one single bedroom, a shower room and the family bathroom.

The single bedroom has a cleverly designed open internal staircase up to a mezzanine level, used as a games room, transforming it into a room of which any teenager would be jealous...

The front of the house requires minimal maintenance, with parking for a couple of cars on the drive and a small lawn.

Great Broughton is a quiet village that’s a handy commuting distance to Cockermouth, Maryport or Workington. 

There are a couple of pubs, a village hall and a local store for your day to day essentials.

It's thriving and community focused village jam packed with both day and evening activities.

It’s not only convenient if you need to head into town, it offers easy access via the A66 to the National Park. Bassenthwaite is the closest lake, the western shore being less than 15 minutes drive (or a 50 minute bike ride) away.

If you have young children, Broughton Primary School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is only a 3 minute walk away, so you can say goodbye to school run traffic or parking stress. 

For older kids, Cockermouth School (another “Good” school) is only 8 minutes drive away or half an hour on the bus.

Also just metres away is the famous Soddy Gap nature paradise, with pond, woods, wild deer, rare Canadian geese and dog walkers paradise... 

If you’re the kind of family who want to get the biggest and best house they can afford and who will enjoy village life, this modern and much improved home is well worth a look.
