Property Description
Who Parks The Car In The Garage These Days? This superb semi’s garage conversion adds extra space to the sociable open plan layout. Outside is just as good, with a landscaped back garden (including a cabin and bar) that’s ideal for entertaining.
Why do they keep building houses with built-in garages, when everyone really wants more space to get together as a family or entertain?
When this smart semi was built in the late 90’s it had the traditional ground floor layout - with a separate living room, dining room and kitchen. And a built-in single garage.
Since then the ground floor has been totally transformed. A spacious orangery has been added at the rear, the built-in single garage has been converted and a few internal walls have come down. That’s created a much more open and sociable layout.
It’s now a superb, stylish space where the whole family can get together or you can welcome friends and neighbours.
There’s an open, seamless flow between rooms but each still has its own distinct function and style.
Starting at the rear, the orangery is set up as a relaxed seating area and has two sets of doors that open to the south facing back garden. It’s also the room that links to the converted garage, which is another reception room for everyone to get together.
It has French doors at the front and is open to the modern and stylish kitchen / diner.
Stairs head up from the kitchen / diner. It’s another room that’s been opened up by removing the entrance hall walls, so you now step straight into the spacious and welcoming kitchen.
Upstairs has two double bedrooms (one with a stylish ensuite shower room), a single bedroom that’s currently being used as a home office and the luxurious family bathroom.
The south facing sun trap back garden is fabulous - perfect for spilling outside whenever the sun’s out. It’s also surprisingly private - unusually so for a property on a new build estate.
The garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to include a choice of seating areas and an artificial lawn. There’s a bar and a large wooden cabin that’s currently used as a gym but would also be great as a summerhouse or garden office.
There’s space to park a couple of cars on the double drive, next to a small patch of artificial lawn.
Ruskin Close is a quiet, family friendly street that will be a safe place for kids to play. They can burn off some energy on the large green/playing fields that’s only a few doors down.
High Harrington is a really popular village that’s less than 10 minutes drive to the centre of Workington, with the countryside on your doorstep.
For families with younger children, it’s only a 5 minute drive to Beckstone Primary in Harrington (it’s rated 'Good' by Ofsted).
For older kids, there's St Joseph’s and Workington Academy in Workington - both are less than 10 minutes drive away.
High Harrington properties are always popular - and we expect this superb, extended and much improved semi is going to get plenty of interest from families who want the very best.
