4 bed bungalow for sale

Burgh Road, Carlisle CA2

Can You See The Wood For The Trees? You’ll fall in love with the 30m mature wooded gardens. The wood panelling in the kitchen…not so much. But this spacious dormer bungalow gives you plenty to work with if you’re looking to create a fabulous family home. Property ref: KD0516

This is one of those homes that gets under your skin - not because it’s perfect, but because it’s full of potential. With its double bay front, stained glass detailing and generous footprint, there’s real character here that’s just waiting to be brought into the 21st century.

You step through the porch into a central hallway flanked by two rooms with bay windows: A lounge to the right and the main bedroom to the left. Both are lovely, light spaces that only need a little cosmetic tlc to be transformed into something really special.

There are two further bedrooms on the ground floor - one double, one smaller - along with a compact bathroom and a wood-panelled kitchen that’s ready for a rethink.

Upstairs, a fourth bedroom gives flexibility – whether that’s for guests, teenagers or a home office away from the day-to-day. It’s a quiet, tucked-away space that adds just that bit more scope to whatever plans you’ve got in mind.

But it’s the garden that steals the show. Stretching over 30m, it’s far more than a lawn – there are defined patio areas for seating, a vegetable patch with greenhouse and a genuinely beautiful wooded section at the rear, filled with mature trees. It’s private, peaceful and packed with potential.

If you were thinking big there’s plenty of space to steal a few metres of garden space and extend at the rear of the house, which could allow you to rejig the layout to create a sociable and special kitchen / living area. You could probably find a way to make the bathroom bigger too.

There’s also a detached single garage with a rear workshop, a neat front garden and a long drive down the side of the house – giving you plenty of parking and storage options.

Located just a couple of miles west of the town centre, you can drive it in 10 minutes or leave the car at home and catch the 93 bus from a few doors down.

And being so close to the A689 bypass means it’s perfect if you’re heading further afield - either hitting the retail park shops, the M6 or exploring the National Park.

Let’s be clear - you will need vision and a budget – but for families wanting space to grow or developers with an eye for transformation, this is the kind of opportunity that doesn’t come around too often.

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