Bungalow for sale in Whitehaven, Cumbria CA28

How Rare Is A Luxury Nearly New Bungalow? With bungalows now making up less than 2% of new build homes, top spec single storey home buyers really do have limited choice. That’s why this superb 2 year old John Swift property will be so popular.

It’s true. A recent survey revealed that bungalow construction has dropped to account for just 1.2% of all new-build homes. And with older downsizers making up around a third of all buyers the maths just doesn't add up.

And that’s before you consider that top of the range, luxury bungalows will be even more scarce!

John Swift homes have been building luxury homes in Cumbria since 1999. And they’ve turned building luxurious bungalows into something of a specialty.

Their developments are known for their exquisite architectural detailing and beautifully landscaped grounds - and The Mount is no exception.

It’s a quiet Close made up entirely of stylish bungalows and dormer bungalows. And because of the elevated position, you don’t need a second storey to get beautiful panoramic views over Whitehaven and towards the Irish Sea.

No 64 was the last home to be built on the development in 2022, it’s at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac and with unrivalled views.

Like all John Swift homes, it’s finished to a particularly high standard, with underfloor heating, bespoke joinery and stylish lvt flooring.

Unlike older bungalows where you need to alter the layout to make the most of the available space it’s been thoughtfully designed for modern living.

The spacious kitchen / diner is bound to become the social hub of the home. It’s beautifully light and bright, thanks to the full width French doors to the garden and the Velux windows in the vaulted ceiling.

There are three double bedrooms (the master bedroom having fitted wardrobes and a stylish ensuite) and a luxurious family bathroom.

The elevated hillside position means you get fantastic sea views from the lounge at the front.

This bungalow may be luxurious but it’s practical too, with a handy utility room just off the kitchen and a built-in single garage (as well as space to park a couple of cars on the drive).

The Mount is less than a 10 minute drive from the centre of Whitehaven and only 25 minutes to Sellafield or Ennerdale Water in the National Park - so it really does offer the best of both worlds.

As you’d expect, all the bungalows were snapped up by eager buyers as soon as they were released and only one has come back onto the market since then.

So this really is “a rare opportunity to purchase” a luxury single storey home, in immaculate condition on this highly sought after estate.

I know this property is sure to be very popular so call or to arrange a private viewing.
