Terraced house for sale in Mayo Street, Cockermouth CA13

Big Bay-Fronted Blank Canvas That Will Be Ideal As A Spacious First Home Or btl. This spacious, chain-free two bedroom terrace is in a handy location, with nothing more than a quick lick of paint required to make it your own.

If you’re looking for something slightly bigger than the tightly packed terraces you find near the town centre, this bay-fronted period property could be ideal.

Being a short distance further out makes a big difference to the space you get - both inside and out. Not only are the rooms bigger but you get a decent sized back garden rather than just a small yard.

If you’re taking your first step onto the housing ladder you’ll appreciate not having to deal with any of the big, expensive or messy jobs.

All of the major renovations were done around 16 years ago. At that time it had a new roof, a rewire, a full central heating system installed, along with a new kitchen and bathroom.

So all that’s left for you to do is to give it a lick of fresh paint and perhaps change the carpets/flooring to reflect your personal tastes.

The ground floor has a spacious bay-fronted lounge and a separate dining room. Some people prefer the two rooms opened up to create a larger, more sociable space and others like having two rooms with their own distinct use and style.

The kitchen is at the rear - slightly wider than the average galley kitchen meaning you don’t have to squeeze past each other if you’re in there together! It may be over 15 years old but the shaker-style fitted units and worktop are still in great condition.

Upstairs has two double bedrooms and the family bathroom.

There’s a small gravelled garden at the front and a 15m low maintenance garden at the rear. It’s east facing so will be a lovely spot to sit out with a morning coffee and top up on your vitamin D before facing the day ahead.

With two double bedrooms and an upstairs bathroom it’s certainly property that could appeal to young families.

With that in mind, the area is well served for ‘Good’ schools - both St Joseph’s and Fairfield Primary Schools are less than 10 minutes walk away.

It’s also handy for town, the C3 bus stop is only a couple of doors down or it’s only a 10 minute walk.

This bay fronted blank canvas is perfect for first time buyers or young families.

It would also be great as a tenant-ready Buy To Let that’s sure to be popular. Based on the “Offers over £200k” asking price and a realistic £725pcm rent it isn’t going to provide dramatic double digit returns but it will be a solid and dependable investment that’s chain-free and ready to rent.

I’m expecting it to be popular so don’t miss out - call to arrange a viewing.
