5 bed detached house for sale

Station Road, Wigton CA7

Not only is this fantastic character property full of charm and period features, it conceals two amazing secrets. The first is that you will be surprised by the size of the very pretty mature garden to the side and rear of the house. The second is the substantial workshop with an entrance of its own. If you fancy a brilliant project with endless possibilities, then Railway Villa might be the one for you. Quote HG0498

To enter this wonderful Grade two listed detached house, you walk through a little garden framed by a sandstone wall and railings. Push open the substantial front door and arrive in the fully panelled vestibule with double doors into the impressive hallway. With gorgeous ceiling roses, cornice and a sublime staircase, you will be enticed in to see more.

To the left is a glorious sitting room with windows to the front and side of the property and a feature fireplace with an inset open fire. Imagine curling up in here on those cold blustery nights.

The second reception room sits to the right of the hallway and has a different feel to the other sitting room. It is even more spacious and has ceiling beams rather than cornicing, a sandstone fireplace and three windows. That is something this fine house has plenty of, windows. Light streams in from every angle.

The kitchen is fully fitted with wood units and leads to the third reception room which is currently used as a dining room. Personality oozes from this room with an inglenook fire place and creel above. Not only a glorious feature but a practical one too!

If you would like to sit inside and look out over the stunning and well established garden whilst enjoying a book or a cuppa, the conservatory is the place to be.

To the first floor you will find four double bedrooms and a single, a large family bathroom, and a shower room.

Outside is where your imagination can really run wild. Sat within approximately three quarters of an acre, there's not only a wonderful magical garden with green house, but a building currently utilised as a workshop, with gates leading out to the front. This could potentially be converted into a separate dwelling subject to building and planning regulations. Maybe it could be a gym, home office, granny flat, or Airbnb. The potential is huge and it offers an exciting opportunity.

Do you have the ability to see what could be with a little hard work and inspiration? Are you are looking for a magnificent period property with the added bonus of a generous plot and potential to create something really special? Then book your viewing today.

This is a rare opportunity to purchase an exceptional property, which has been loved by one family over many years, has bags of potential and is now waiting for a new lease of life. Please get in touch to arrange a viewing. Quote HG0498
