House


Description

A traditional cottage in the sought-after village of Beckermet, offering spacious accommodation and lovely countryside views.

Inside, the property comprises a hall, lounge through dining room, kitchen, and utility room. Upstairs there are two good-sized bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a further attic room currently used as a third bedroom. While the home would benefit from some upgrading and modernisation, it provides a great, safe purchase for first-time buyers or a young couple looking to get on the property ladder.

Outside, there is a large courtyard with brick-built storage, plus an easy-to-maintain rear tiered garden, including a paved patio by Black Beck – a peaceful spot to enjoy the countryside surroundings.

Perfect for first-time buyers, a young couple, or those looking to add to a rental portfolio, particularly with the property’s proximity to major employers such as Sellafield. Early viewing is advised.
