Lonsdale Place, Whitehaven, CA28

Situated on a very desirable street, this fine, five bedroomed, semi detached period townhouse is conveniently situated within just a short walk to Whitehaven town centre and boasts modern, trendy living accommodation throughout.

1 Lonsdale Place has been beautifully upgraded and modernised by the current owners to create a truly stunning family home. The property has undergone substantial renovation works which include new roof, complete rewiring, replacement heating system (including new boiler & radiators), the creation of loft bedrooms with Velux windows, new insulation, damp proofing, re-rendering with K-rend and full plaster work. The project has been completed with full refurbishment of bathrooms, kitchen and replacement flooring and decorated throughout to an extremely high standard. This property truly is turn-key ready.

Spacious and flexible accommodation is spread over four floors. On entering the property you are introduced to a generous hallway with attractive tile effect flooring. There is a large living room with feature fireplace and bay window, separate dining room with fireplace and rear views of the garden and a lower hallway which provides access to the exterior and to a modern, three-piece family bathroom - complete with roll top bathtub. To the ground floor, which is at basement level, there is a large reception room currently utilised as an impressive games room - this could easily be used as additional bedroom space if required, and a modern, trendy kitchen, complete with dark blue cabinetry, large Rangemaster cooker & breakfast bar offering informal dining option. There are also storage facilities at this level. To the first floor, accessed via a staircase with attractive, large oval window, you will find a large double bedroom along with the principal bedroom suite which has stunning bay window, built in wardrobes and modern, en-suite shower room. The second floor provides two further, large rooms, one of which is currently used as a playroom.

Externally, the property benefits from a small front garden, which has been shillied with slate for ease of maintenance and a further garden area to the rear which is a mixture of lawn and paved areas. Behind this there is a decked seating area - perfect for BBQ dining and with power/space for hot tub (currently has a Lay-Z Spa hot tub in situ). A gate from the garden takes you to the rear lane, where there is access to a single garage, which could be a perfect, further storage option or, with the correct permissions, a working from home space.

This sale benefits from the huge, added bonus of no onward buying chain.

The property is well located within just a short walk to Whitehaven town centre, which offers a wide range of amenities including shops, schools, restaurants and leisure facilities. There are good bus and rail links in the town centre connecting it with neighbouring towns and employment centres along the west coast. The delights of the Lake District National Park are also within easy reach. 

Mains electricity, gas, water and drainage. Gas central heating with brand new boiler. Double glazing installed. Telephone and broadband connections installed subject to BT regulations. Please note the mention of any appliances/services within these particulars does not imply that they are in full and efficient working order.

Travel out from Whitehaven town centre, passing Wetherspoons & Tesco supermarket, and the property can be found on the hill taking you out of the town, on the right hand side.
