Description

An impressive three-bedroom semi-detached barn conversion, thoughtfully extended to create a stylish and versatile family home, set within the peaceful hamlet of Dean. Combining charming character features with contemporary open-plan living, this attractive property offers a wonderful balance of rural surroundings and everyday convenience, with Cockermouth and Workington both just a short drive away. The village also benefits from a lovely primary school and country pub, making this an appealing setting for those seeking a quieter pace of life without compromising on access to local amenities and employment opportunities.

The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan living and dining space, enhanced by a modern kitchen with breakfast bar seating and a recently completed extension featuring bi-fold doors that open directly onto the rear courtyard garden. Flooded with natural light from a striking ceiling lantern, the additional reception area offers excellent flexibility as a snug, home office or playroom, complete with a contemporary wall-mounted electric fire. A welcoming entrance hall, featuring an attractive stained-glass front door, leads through to the beautifully proportioned accommodation, while a convenient ground-floor WC adds to the practicality of the layout. Upstairs, the charming galleried landing and exposed timber beams celebrate the property's barn heritage, leading to three well-presented bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with an apex ceiling and bespoke fitted wardrobes, a further bedroom with an en-suite shower room, and a stylish contemporary family shower room.

Externally, the property is enclosed by an attractive stone wall and benefits from a generous driveway providing off-road parking for two to three vehicles, together with a delightful paved courtyard garden directly to the rear, accessed from the bi-fold doors and ideal for outdoor dining or relaxing. An additional outdoor store provides useful storage space. Combining character, contemporary style and versatile living accommodation, this is a particularly appealing home for families, couples or buyers relocating to the area, and one that deserves to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
