Harringdale Road, High Harrington, Workington, CA14 4NU

Property Description

Flares, VHS Videos, Ford Cortinas. Some things from the 1970’s haven’t aged well. This spacious three bedroom detached isn’t one of them. It’s a well maintained blank canvas, ready for you and your family to move in and make yourselves at home.

They knew how to make large detached family homes in the 70’s, so you’ll be getting a spacious and well built property on a popular street.

The layout hasn’t changed much since it was first built. 

It has a large lounge that’s open to the dining room at the rear. The room gets plenty of light, thanks to the large window at the front and the patio doors at the rear that lead to the conservatory.

You can sit in the conservatory and look out to the low maintenance south facing back garden. It’s a bit of a sun-trap, with no houses at the rear to block the sunlight.

The fitted kitchen is next to the dining room. It’s not the biggest and is probably one of the rooms you’d tackle first. 

There’s a separate utility room that leads to the built in single garage, so you could potentially open it all up (by knocking through to both the utility and dining room) to create a much larger, more sociable space.

Upstairs has two double bedrooms, a decent sized single bedroom and the family bathroom.

Bathrooms are nearly as important as kitchens, so you’ll probably want to update this room sooner rather than later.

If you were feeling more ambitious and creative (and had the budget to match) you could think about extending above the garage to add an extra room. Others on the street have done so but you would need to seek planning permission!

Being an ideal family home it’s good to know that the local schools are highly regarded, the “Outstanding” St Mary’s Primary being closest.

High Harrington is a quiet yet really popular village. Just a stroll away is the recently refurbished Galloping Horse pub, perfect for having a night off from the cooking. You can head to the Spar at the A595 Distington roundabout for your day-to-day bits and bobs (or a latte from Starbucks or a Whopper from Burger King!).

It's also handy for Whitehaven and Workington, both of which can be reached by car in less than ten minutes. 

It’s also a great starting point for exploring the National Park, with the north shore of Loweswater being only a 20 minute drive or a 60 minute bike ride away.

If you want to get some fresh air a little closer to home, Harrington Nature Reserve is only a few minutes drive away (it’s next to the primary school).

This is a well-built, spacious family home that could be transformed into your perfect family home. 

It’s neat and tidy and ready for you to move in - with no onward chain - but chances are you will want to give it a little TLC to freshen it up and make it your own.
