There Are Two Types Of People In Life - Those Who’ll Love Living Opposite The Club And Those Who’d Hate It. If you’re a “Club Lover” this superb three bedroom end terrace could be a surprisingly affordable first time buy with space for a young family.
Look beyond the Marmite location, right opposite Moss Bay Working Men’s Club, and this lovely three bedroom end terrace has a lot going for it.
It’s immaculate inside and out, you really could move in and not even have to lift a paintbrush.
The ground floor has the traditional two reception room layout with a living room and a separate dining room.
The kitchen has plenty of space in the stylish fitted units and on-trend brick tiles with dark grout.
The door from the kitchen leads to the small south facing back yard. It’s a neat and tidy space where you can sit out and enjoy the sun throughout the day and there’s a substantial outbuilding at the rear.
Upstairs, there’s two double bedrooms and the family bathroom on the first floor.
The loft has been converted into another good size double bedroom.
If you have a car, there’s plenty of on street parking in front of the property.
It’s only a 5 minute drive to the town centre or there’s a regular bus service into town with a bus stop only a short walk down Mossbay Road.
But you don’t even need to head into town for your day-to-day essentials. That's because there’s a Chinese takeaway and Premier store just round the corner and Asda is less than a 10 minute walk away (or only 1 minute in the car if you’re doing the weekly shop).
If you’ve got young kids or are thinking about starting a family, Westfield Nursery & Primary School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is around 10 minutes walk away.
This immaculate three bedroom end terrace will be perfect if you’re looking for a move-in ready three bedroom property at a great price.
Despite the “Love It Or Hate It” location i’m expecting plenty of interest. Call to arrange a viewing.
A note on Workington leasehold
Most of Workington Town Centre properties are leasehold, which dates back to when the Curwen family owned most of the land. They are on a peppercorn rent, usually between £1-£3, and were on a 999-year lease. Most will have around 840 and 860 years remaining. They are managed by Cumberland Council and are effectively treat as freehold. You don't need to ask for permission to make any alterations, other than if you are needing planning permission (as with any other property). You can always buy the freehold, which is usually under £150 plus some additional legal costs. However, most people don’t as the ground rent is so low, and the remaining number of years will last a few lifetimes. Feel free to get in touch if you’d like more info.
