About this property
Tired Of Paying Rent With Nothing To Show For It? This two-bedroom terraced house in the centre of Workington is the kind of solid, affordable first step that has set young buyers up for generations - and the large attic room means you get more space than you'd expect at this price. That feeling when your rent goes out and you think - what do I actually have to show for this?
Key features
- Stopping rent payments and owning your first home is exactly what this property makes possible - at a price where mortgage and rent are closer than you might think
- The ground floor kitchen and living area have been opened into one connected space with shaker units, dark worktops and a peninsula
- Recessed spotlighting and laminate flooring run through the ground floor, giving the whole space a clean, consistent feel
- The second bedroom has fitted sliding mirror wardrobes already in place - one less thing to sort on moving in
- The large attic room, previously used as a third bedroom, gives you space that most buyers at this price point simply would not expect
- Whether you need a home office, a guest room or simply somewhere to put everything, the attic solves a problem most first homes cannot
- The bathroom is full-size and functional - worth updating in time, but no barrier to moving straight in
- Bus stops are close by and the town centre - shops, cafés and everyday essentials - is all within a short walk from the front door
- Central Workington terraces have been the reliable entry point for first-time buyers in this area for well over a century
- The property is ready to move into and improve gradually, at your own pace, without a landlord's permission
