2 bed semi-detached bungalow for sale

Beckside Cottage, Rockcliffe, Cumbria CA6

More Sky. Fewer Neighbours. A Calmer Pace Of Life. At the end of a quiet lane, with open fields behind and sunset light filling the kitchen-diner, this superb updated bungalow gives you space to breathe, with Kingstown, Carlisle and the M6 only minutes away. Property ref: KD0516

Located at the end of a quiet lane on a corner plot, this semi-detached bungalow is surrounded on three sides by fields, giving you space behind and kitchen-diner views straight out to open countryside.

Inside, the generous room proportions are another pleasant surprise.

The living room is warm and welcoming, with a wood burning stove and windows on two sides bringing in plenty of natural light throughout the day.

The kitchen-diner is the heart of the home. It stretches over 8m (28ft), giving you plenty of space for clearly defined cooking and dining areas.

The open layout and breakfast bar keeps things sociable. The dining area sits beside French doors that frame the fields beyond, so even midweek meals come with a view.

When the sun starts to drop, the light moves across the room and changes the mood completely. It’s one of those small details that makes such a difference.

There’s a separate utility room, just off the kitchen. Practical, tucked away and large enough to keep laundry and clutter out of sight.

Both bedrooms are doubles, with the main bedroom benefitting from fitted wardrobes and its own ensuite shower room.

The main bathroom has been updated to a superb standard, with a gorgeous modern freestanding bath and separate walk in shower.

Outside, the garden is mainly paved for ease of maintenance - with fields on three sides you don’t need acres of lawn to mow.

Then there’s the additional large double garage which gives you genuine flexibility and so many options. It’s ideal for storage, a workshop, hobby space or something more ambitious like a granny flat or Airbnb annexe, subject to the usual permissions.

Despite the quiet semi-rural feel, everyday life remains straightforward and surprisingly convenient. You’ll be spoiled for choice with country walks starting from the end of your lane - but you really aren’t stuck out in the sticks.

The centre of Rockcliffe village is around 10 minutes walk away, with its popular primary school and a fantastic pub - The Crown & Thistle.

When you want to hit the shops, grab something for tea or get a caffeine fix from Starbucks, Kingstown retail park is only a 5 minutes by car, right next to junction 44 of the M6.

If more sky and fewer neighbours sounds like your kind of move, this modern semi-detached bungalow is one to watch.

I’m expecting plenty of interest so call me to arrange a private viewing.
