Birkby, Maryport, CA15 6RF

Discover the potential of a detached three-bedroom family residence set on nearly an acre of land, just a short three-minute drive from Maryport. Birkby Mill Cottage stands out with its spacious layout and a warm atmosphere, providing ample room for both relaxation and investment opportunities. The property features a broad entrance hall leading to a generous living area, highlighted by a cozy log burner, perfect for family gatherings. The country-style kitchen diner serves as the central hub for everyday life, equipped with shaker cabinets and enough space for a full dining setup. A dedicated utility area keeps the home clutter-free while the separate study offers an ideal workspace or quiet retreat. Upstairs, you’ll find three genuine double bedrooms; the main bedroom includes an ensuite, and there’s a modern four-piece family bathroom with both bath and walk-in shower. The expansive grounds not only provide room for personal outdoor projects but also present possibilities for further development, such as raised garden beds, an orchard, or even space for small livestock—truly underscoring the concept of 'the good life.' The Dutch barn and detached double garage add additional versatility; they can serve as storage spaces or workshop areas or could be transformed into something entirely new (subject to planning permission). While surrounded by nature's beauty, you're still conveniently close to local amenities, schools, and transport links—perfectly balancing rural charm with suburban convenience. For those looking to create their vision of home amidst ample space while staying connected to town life, this property is undoubtedly worthy of consideration.
