Stricketts Court, Cockermouth, CA13

Description

The Barn is located off Sullart Street, central to the town and all its shops, restaurants and bars. The property is tucked away in a courtyard area and has the benefit of parking to the front/rear of the house. This property would make a fabulous family home or lucrative investment property. Located on the edge of the Lake District National Park, Cockermouth is a very popular town and boasts a wide range of amenities including primary schools, a secondary school and swimming pool/leisure centre, to name a few. It is a short drive/cycle ride from Wainwright’s North Western Fells as well as popular Lakeland attractions including Keswick, the Buttermere valley, Whinlatter Forest Park and Bassenthwaite Lake. It is also just a short drive from the Cumbrian coast and is famous for its association with several historical people, notably, Poet, William Wordsworth and the Bounty mutineer Fletcher Christian.

The Barn was converted in 2003 and finished in 2005. Since then, it has been successfully let on the residential letting market. Upon entering the property you are struck by the character the current vendors have retained, having solid stone flooring, exposed beams and feature exposed stone walls. The entrance hall has a lovely feel of space and light, a fabulous welcome to the property. The ground floor consists of three double bedrooms, one with en-suite, a family bathroom with both walk in shower and bath, a further WC and utility room. The ground floor also offers a storage cupboard and a good size under stairs cupboard. From the entrance hall, a solid oak staircase takes you to the first floor where the mezzanine landing has a vaulted ceiling, flooding this space with natural light not just from the Velux's in the roof but the glass panels arched over the front door below. The carpentry is exceptional with solid wood flooring and doors. The kitchen is a great size and has a full range of wall, base and drawer units. From the kitchen, a door takes you to a dining area, partly separated to the lounge by a feature wall housing a double-sided glass panel gas fire with metal surround, deep window sills form part of every window. Rounding the corner from the dining area, you enter into the lounge, a fabulous room, again with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and exposed stone walls. Patio doors and Juliet balcony are situated to the end of the room. This room is very welcoming and a great space to entertain.

To the outside, The Barn has access to the shared courtyard in front and to the rear, to park, and with room for a bench for seating. The property is fully double glazed and has gas central heating.
