5 bed house for sale Common Side, Distington, Workington, CA14 4PU

About this property

Key features

• Rolling countryside views from the back garden, with woodland and a ghyll at the bottom of the plot - the kind of outlook that stops most buyers in their tracks
• A glass-balustrade patio catches the afternoon and evening sun, with seating areas at multiple levels across the sloping garden
• The living and dining area has a floor-to-ceiling bay window framing the view, with French doors opening straight onto the upper balcony
• Lower ground floor bedroom with en-suite and direct garden access - currently configured for a family member but equally suited to a teenager wanting their own space
• The kitchen is ready to be reconfigured to your own taste, with a good-sized utility room alongside to keep the laundry well out of the way
• First floor has three bedrooms, a recently installed bathroom, and a large cupboard that could work as a sixth bedroom at a stretch
• Large drive and integral double garage mean parking is never an issue, with an external cellar adding useful storage without eating into the living space
• Distington sits quietly outside the main village - under five minutes by car to Lillyhall, and around ten minutes into Workington or Whitehaven
• A twenty-minute walk takes you to the local shop, GP surgery and primary school, with open countryside starting essentially at the garden boundary
• A detached home of this size and on this plot, in this position, is a rare combination in this part of Cumbria - real interest is expected
