Solway View by Persimmon Homes · Marsh Drive, Workington, Cumbria CA14 3FD

Solway View is a new build homes development by Persimmon Homes, situated off Marsh Drive, Workington, Cumbria (CA14 3FD). The site delivers a range of two, three, and four-bedroom properties, catering to first-time buyers, families, and professionals seeking new homes in the area. The current new build properties available include two and three-bedroom apartments, along with various house types such as terraced, end-terrace, semi-detached, and detached houses.

The Solway View new build development offers a practical selection of homes designed for modern living. Specific house types encompass the entire spectrum of new build housing, from compact 2-bedroom apartments to larger 4-bedroom detached homes. All properties are covered by a two-year Persimmon Homes warranty and a subsequent 10-year insurance-backed warranty, providing long-term structural peace of mind. Buyers benefit from the energy efficiency inherent in new build construction, which typically includes improved thermal retention via insulation and double glazing, potentially leading to lower energy bills. Depending on the stage of construction, buyers may also have the option to personalise their new home through the developer's ‘Finishing Touches’ selection. Estimated availability for some three and four-bedroom plots is confirmed as July 2025. Solway View is positioned to take advantage of both coastal proximity and connectivity. The development is situated close to the Solway coast and the estuary of the River Derwent. Local transport links are robust: Workington railway station is approximately 0.9 miles from the main site and offers direct rail connections via TransPennine Express and Avanti West Coast. Train travel to Carlisle is approximately 50 minutes. Road links are provided by the A595 coastal route, connecting north to Carlisle (around 30 miles), and the scenic A66, which passes through Keswick and the Lake District before linking to the M6 motorway junction at Penrith (approximately 38 miles distant). Key amenities are readily accessible. Workington town centre features a high street, local independent shops, and the Washington Square Shopping Centre. Retail and leisure facilities are consolidated at the nearby Dunmail Park Shopping Centre, which hosts large supermarkets, big-name food chains, and a multiplex cinema. For education, Victoria Infant and Nursery School and Victoria Junior School are located approximately 0.7 miles from the development.
