WHY THE WILLOWS? The perfect balance of rural living and accessibility, the property is within a small settlement accessible for Thursby, Dalston, Wigton, Carlisle and beyond thanks to the proximity of the A595. An ideal setting for families, with Thursby primary school just moments away and the well regarded Nelson Thomlinson secondary school in Wigton. Curthwaite, just a mile down the road, also has a popular restaurant. A good range of amenities are available in both Wigton and Dalston.

ACCOMMODATION Spacious throughout, the property benefits from a generous kitchen dining living space with breakfast bar seating, complemented by an ample utility/boot room. There is also a large entrance hallway with fitted cupboards and a cloakroom W.C. Two good sized reception rooms complete the ground floor accommodation. The larger of the two has a stove in a feature fireplace and the second has an external door to the garden. On the first floor there are five bedrooms. The first of which is a large double room with en-suite shower. There are two more good size double rooms and a smaller fourth bedroom, currently utilised as a dressing room, but would make an equally suitable bedroom or home office. These rooms share the family bathroom, a well proportioned modern space with both bath and separate shower. The fifth bedroom, another larger double room has the benefit of a modern in room en-suite shower. The inside is impressive in its own right, however it is externally where the property really comes in to its own. Set behind double wooden gates, the property occupies a generous garden site of approximately 1.66 acres. There is a detached double garage and a large area of hardstanding as well as a large lawn. The property would be ideal for a growing family or offers potential for the creation of further garaging/storage (subject to obtaining the necessary permissions).
