Town house for sale in Whitfell Avenue, Carlisle CA2

Having The Living Room & Kitchen / Diner Upstairs Has Its Advantages. Like the south facing balcony where you can sit out with a coffee. Or the bedroom / home office downstairs with garden access. If you’ve got an open mind you’ll see the benefits. Property ref: KD0516

Like many modern townhouses, this 2002 Persimmon home has the lounge and the kitchen / diner on the first floor.

Some people just won’t be able to get beyond that. And that would be such a shame.

Because elevating the living room and the kitchen / diner does flood both rooms with light. And the kitchen /diner’s south facing balcony is a neat touch - meaning you can sit out with a morning coffee or a glass of wine at the end of the day.

And removing these rooms from the ground floor means there’s space for a bedroom. It’s got French doors leading out to the garden so it’s a lovely spot for either a bedroom or a home office.

If you did use it as a bedroom then it would be perfect for someone who struggled with stairs. There’s already a downstairs w/c but if you wanted to make the ground floor into an accessible home within a home, the utility could be converted into an ensuite shower room.

Heading back upstairs, the kitchen / diner has modern fitted units, integrated appliances and space for a dining table and chairs next to the balcony.

The living room is light and bright, with views of the low maintenance back garden below.

The top floor has two further double bedrooms and a stylish shower room.

This is a spacious and versatile home that will appeal to a wide range of buyers.

Given the location right next to Richard Rose Morton Academy it will be perfect if you have older kids who love to lie in and leave it to the last minute!

But it could equally appeal to couples or older buyers looking for a move-in-ready home.

This popular estate is on the edge of town where it meets the countryside.

That means if you like to walk, run or cycle it’s the ideal base to start your workout. Just turn right onto the A595 and you’re off towards the National Park.

It’s a couple of hours in the saddle to Bassenthwaite Lake, so you could join up with friends and make a day of it. Or if you’re not feeling fit it’s just over half an hour in the car.

It’s also handy if you want to hit the shops or catch up with friends in town.

The estate is less than 10 minutes drive to the city centre or around half an hour on the bus, with a bus stop nearby on Wigton Road.

As it’s a family friendly property it’s good to know there’s a choice of good local schools nearby.

Richard Rose Morton Academy is literally over the back fence and Newlaithes Junior School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is the closest primary school, less than 15 minutes walk or a 3 minute drive away.

This is a modern family home which has been very well looked after. It’s in immaculate condition and ready for you to move in.

It’s got a versatile layout which gives you plenty of ways to make it work for you and your family.

I’m expecting plenty of interest so call me today to arrange a viewing.
