If hardwork doesn't daunt you and you're ready to get your sleeves rolled up then this is the property for you!
The current owners have started to renovate this 5 bed link-detached Victorian home but life has changed and they're now ready to sell it. The house requires complete renovation but it does offer the chance for you to put your own mark on it - all trades are outstanding but you can finish it to your taste, specification and satisfaction.
The main house was built in 1850 but has recently been extended and now has three reception rooms and a kitchen with bi-fold doors to the rear and a large utility and shower room. Upstairs there are 5 bedrooms - the master having a free standing bath, vaulted ceiling and the most amazing view of the garden!
Outside there's ample parking, a large covered area perfect for storage, a super summerhouse with mezzanine area and wood burning stove but the selling point just has to be the most beautiful and well established garden, the centre piece being a magnificent Copper Beech Tree!
Eaglesfield is a fabulous and very sought after village which has a great community spirit, mostly centred around the village hall and Paddle School. There's easy access into Cockermouth and it's a stone's throw away from the Lakes and Mountains of the Northern Lake District.
THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW
The current owners of this property have started its renovation but they are now selling it as it is: work is required throughout the property including works to the roof, electrics, plumbing, plastering, joinery, decor etc.
Planning permission has previously been granted for a large extension to the rear - the current owners chose to erect a smaller two storey extension with an additional utility room adjoining but Building Regulation approval has not been finalised for this.
The vendors would like to take the opportunity of talking through what needs to be completed - they are actively open with what needs to be done and will provide you with a full information.
