Your Chance To Live Like A Prosperous Georgian Family. This imposing Grade II listed residence combines the best of old and new, with superb Solway Firth views. It’s in immaculate condition and ready for you to live out your own period drama.

Standing proudly at the north end of High Street, Alba House is a commanding double fronted period residence, with powerful doric columns flanking the front door.

Step through the front door and you enter a wonderful entrance hall that’s something of a timewarp, with beautiful stained glass, original style tiles and a curved staircase inviting you to explore the first floor.

As you’d expect from a property befitting a prosperous Georgian family, the ground floor has an abundance of reception rooms. All of them benefit from fabulous period features such as sash windows, high ceilings and elaborate ceiling roses.

There are two reception rooms to the left of the hall - the living room has a working fire that will be perfect on a chilly winter’s evening.

The smaller room towards the rear is being used as a games room, with a conservatory that offers the chance to enjoy views of the south facing back garden whatever the weather.

To the right of the entrance hall, the dining room and kitchen have been opened up to create one larger, more sociable space that will be perfect for entertaining.

The kitchen has modern fitted units in a timeless shaker style.

If you have a large family who love to get together but also appreciate the space to chill out in peace, this substantial family home will be ideal.

There’s a further small sitting room at the rear, again looking out to the garden, next to a handy utility room and shower room.

The journey up the gorgeous curved staircase to the first floor is an experience in itself, thanks to the feature alcoves and original circular skylight that floods the hall and landing with light.

The first floor has three double bedrooms and a superb, stylish family bathroom that has both a walk-in shower and a contemporary freestanding bath.

One of the front bedrooms has a large walk-in wardrobe which could potentially be converted into an ensuite bathroom. The rear bedroom (currently being used as a cinema room) has fabulous views of the harbour and the Solway Firth coastline.

The top floor has another three bedrooms and ample storage in the eaves.

The property does lack a garage but more than makes up for this with the large cellar (which has both power and lighting) and a handy garden shed.

The south facing back garden has a lawn and both paved and decking seating areas. It gets the sun all day and is a lovely place to sit on an evening and watch the sunset over the harbour and the Scottish coastline.

It’s the perfect place for outdoor entertaining, made even better by the wooden garden bar!

The close-to-town location is another great thing about this house. It’s only a 5 minute walk down the hill to Senhouse Street but it’s far enough away that you don’t get lots of town centre shoppers parking up on the street.

Being north of the town centre means that you don’t have to struggle through town on the school run. Both Maryport Infant School and Primary School (both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) are less than 10 minutes walk away.

It’s rare to find a Grade II listed property like this in such great condition. The owners really have done a fantastic job of making the most of it’s beautiful period features whilst bringing it bang up to date into the 21st century.

If you’ve got a large family or are just looking for lots of space, call to arrange a private viewing
