The kitchen flows seamlessly into a separate utility room, a brilliant practical bonus for families. There’s masses of storage, space for laundry, and direct access to the integral garage. In the garage you’ll find a built-in dog bath – ideal for muddy paws after a beach walk, (if you don’t have a dog… well, it’s also perfectly sized for washing football boots. or small children. But we didn’t officially say that). A handy downstairs WC completes the ground floor.

The master bedroom is a true sanctuary – spacious, peaceful, and opening onto a private balcony overlooking the garden with long-range views stretching out towards the Lake District. Watching the morning light on the fells here feels like a little piece of magic every day. The master also benefits from a sleek, modern en-suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms, all well-proportioned and perfect for children, guests or a dedicated home office. A beautifully styled family bathroom serves these rooms with contemporary finishes and a three piece suite with shower over the bath tub. 

Step outside and the garden immediately feels calm and private. The lower patio area is perfect for summer meals, potted plants and relaxing in the sun. A few steps lead to the upper lawn which offers plenty of space for children to play, footballs to be kicked, and garden parties to be held. Raised planting and boundary fencing create interest and shape, while still offering lots of room to make the outside space truly your own.
