4 bed detached house for sale

Cross Gates, Lamplugh, Workington CA14

Decisions, Decisions...Do we highlight the four double bedrooms, sociable open plan kitchen / diner, superb lounge, the gorgeous back garden with its own stream trickling through or the handy location - just 15 mins to the coast, fells and 3 towns?

It’s not often you find a luxury family home with this many standout features - and that’s exactly our dilemma.

Should we start by describing the four spacious double bedrooms? The stylish and sociable kitchen / diner? The peaceful back garden where a stream gently trickles past your patio?

It’s one of those homes where everything just works.

It has space where you want it and style in all the right places.

And a setting that feels like you’re out in the countryside, but keeps you connected to the essentials - Workington, Whitehaven and Cockermouth are all just a 15 minute drive away.

Set in a highly sought after village location, this is the kind of place that really suits anyone who loves the outdoor lifestyle and being surrounded by countryside. There are countless scenic walks right on the doorstep, including the stunning Cogra Moss reservoir which can be reached in around a 20 minute walk from the house. Whether it’s walking, cycling, paddleboarding or simply enjoying the scenery, this location makes it easy to get outside and make the most of it.

Inside, it’s move-in ready and beautifully finished, with tasteful decor and solid oak flooring.

The heart of the home is the generous L-shaped kitchen / diner - big enough for hosting, relaxed enough for everyday life.

There’s a proper grown-up kitchen for any aspiring chefs too, with quartz worktops, a neff double oven, induction hob, bottle fridge, boiling water tap and sleek integrated appliances.

Recently installed and finished in a stylish modern design, the separate utility room adds a practical touch of luxury - keeping the washing machine out of the kitchen and giving you a dedicated laundry space to help keep the heart of the home calm, organised and clutter-free.

Prefer a cosy night by the fire? The separate lounge has that covered, complete with a wood-burning stove and double doors out to the garden.

Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, each with their own feel. The main bedroom comes with a stylish ensuite (you’ll love the tiling) and the four piece family bathroom is another highlight - with a walk-in shower, freestanding bath and even a wall mirror with a built-in speaker.

And then there’s the outside space.

The large front garden’s full of mature planting and there’s more than enough room for parking several cars, plus the large garage with electric door.

But it’s the back garden that really steals the show. There are multiple seating areas, lovely established borders, and a patio right by the stream - the ideal spot for a quiet morning coffee or a glass of something stronger as the sun goes down.

The windows have been replaced throughout with triple glazing, which improves the energy efficiency and dampens any noise from outside, meaning that your beauty sleep won't be interrupted.

The setting hits that sweet spot too - you’ve got local schools, a great country pub within walking distance and Loweswater, Crummock and Ennerdale Fells just up the road.

Just around the corner is the modern village hall. It’s a hive of activity and perfect for starting a new hobby or meeting new friends.

If picturesque walks are your thing, you'll love the fact that there's an abundance of them right on the doorstep.

This is a luxurious family home that covers all the bases - it’s practical, picturesque and full of personality.

There’s also no onward chain, which could help make the buying process smoother and far more straightforward.

We’re expecting plenty of interest, so if you want to see it for yourself call now to arrange a viewing.
