Semi-detached house for sale in Sedgefield Lane, Carlisle, Cumberland CA2

Struggling To Buy Your Own Place? This smart 2019 starter home is in superb condition and being sold at a 30% discount, thanks to the council’s Low Cost Housing Scheme. If you’re local and meet the criteria you could own 100% but only pay for 70%. Property ref: KD0516

The council are keen to make home ownership affordable to Carlisle locals so teamed up with Story Homes to offer selected properties at a 30% discount.

This three bedroom semi is part of the scheme, and even though it's almost 5 years old, it still qualifies for the discount.

You need to be local and meet the qualifying criteria but it’s easy to find the details on the council’s website and you can even apply online.

There’s a small lawn infront of the house and space to park a couple of cars on the drive.

The ground floor has a spacious lounge and a modern kitchen / diner with space to sit and eat in front of the French doors to the garden.

There’s even a handy downstairs w/c.

Upstairs has two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and the family bathroom, which has a shower over the bath.

The back garden has a paved seating area and a decent sized lawn.

The Ridings is a popular development (with horse racing themed street names) on the southern edge of the city.

That makes it easy to get out and enjoy the countryside but it’s still convenient when you need to head into town - taking less than 10 minutes to drive to the city centre.

If you’re heading further afield, when the Southern Link Road is complete (it’s scheduled to open Summer 2025) it will make getting to Junction 42 of the M6 or heading out to the National Park on the A595 a breeze.

This is a fantastic opportunity to get onto the housing ladder and own 100% of this smart and stylish starter home - but you’ll only have to pay for 70%.

The beauty of that is you’ll only need to find a smaller deposit, it will be easier to pass the mortgage affordability criteria and the monthly mortgage payments will be so much lower!
