Terraced house for sale in Cumberland Street, Workington CA14

Looking For An Affordable First Home You Can Make Your Own? This 2 bed terrace is priced to reflect the work required but it’s a great first step on the housing ladder that could be within your reach.

You’re getting a well built terrace with good room sizes on both floors. If you’re currently renting a quick calculation may reveal it costs a lot less to buy this than you’re paying in rent!

But the one thing it’s missing is central heating.

Don’t panic! It doesn’t have to be as costly or as much hassle as you might first think!

With the big push to get people away from gas boilers you may be able to pick up a grant for installing an air source heat pump. It’s certainly worth checking out online to see if you’d qualify.

Downstairs has two reception rooms - you step off the street into the dining room with the lounge in the middle before you get to the kitchen.

If you were making a list of things to do once you moved in, the kitchen and bathroom would be ‘ones for the future’. They’re both absolutely fine for now but you may want to budget for replacing them in due course.

Upstairs has two good size double bedrooms - again both are well looked after but you may want to give them a lick of paint to put your own stamp on them.

There’s a small yard at the back with a couple of brick outbuildings that are handy for storage.

Cumberland Street is less than ten minutes walk into town. It’s so handy for work, shopping or socialising. And if you do have a car there’s plenty of on street parking.

If you like green space it’s close to Vulcan Park and if you’re thinking of starting a family Victoria Infant & Nursery School (rated Outstanding by Ofsted) is less than 10 minutes walk away.

If you’re looking for an affordable first step on the housing ladder that you can make your own over time this 2 bedroom terrace is well worth a look.

It won’t be for you if you’re looking for a move-in ready home, but if you’re not put off by having to sort the heating and make cosmetic improvements then it could be perfect.
