Description

Discover the possibilities with this detached family home set on just under an acre of land, offering ample scope for renovation and personalisation. Located only three minutes from the conveniences of Maryport, this property presents a unique opportunity for those looking to expand their living space and enjoy a touch of countryside without sacrificing access to urban amenities. Birkby Mill Cottage features a welcoming entrance hall that flows seamlessly into a spacious bay-fronted living room, complete with a log burner perfect for cozy evenings. The kitchen diner serves as a central gathering space, boasting shaker-style fitted units and generous worktop areas, ideal for culinary enthusiasts and family meals alike. A separate utility room adds practicality while keeping everyday mess out of sight, complemented by a ground floor WC and dedicated study for remote working or quiet pursuits. The first floor hosts three genuine double bedrooms, including a main bedroom with ensuite facilities. The family bathroom is modern with a four-piece suite featuring both a bath and walk-in shower. The outdoor space is one of the property's most attractive features. With almost an acre to cultivate, you can create your own retreat—be it an orchard, vegetable garden, or even small livestock area. There’s potential for raised beds or an outdoor kitchen to enhance your lifestyle further. The existing Dutch barn provides additional storage or could be transformed (subject to necessary permissions), while the double garage opens up possibilities for workshops or vehicle storage. Though surrounded by nature, you remain well-connected; local schools and Maryport's shops and cafes are just minutes away. This property offers not just a home but an opportunity to shape your environment according to your vision. For those ready to embrace both space and potential in their next move, this could be the perfect fit.
