Hillcrest Avenue, Whitehaven CA28

Set on a substantial corner plot, in a highly sought after area in Whitehaven, is this three-bedroom semi-detached home. Whilst in need of some modernisation, the property offers a tremendous amount, and due to the space of the plot this would be ideal for those looking to extend. The garden sweeps around the front, along the side into the rear of the property, and benefits from the sun throughout the day. You will notice the large driveway, which provides off-street parking for around five cars, and there is a detached garage. The location of the property is not only desirable but also convenient. The property is just a stone's throw from Jericho primary School and within easy walking distance is Whitehaven Academy and St Benedict's Catholic high school. Step inside the property, you will realise there is some work to be done, however you may notice the open plan lounge and diner, which would be relatively straightforward to modernize, with the fitting of a new kitchen. There is a good size lounge, and the property benefits from the addition of a utility room, at the rear. To the first floor there are three bedrooms, and a modern bathroom suite. This property is ideal for anybody looking to add value, or to add their own stamp. The size of the plot will also attract the attention of someone, who perhaps now, or at some point in the future would like to extend to the side.
