A very well maintained, larger than average semi-detached family home with three bedrooms is situated in a desirable area, a short distance from highly-regarded schools such as Whitehaven and St Benedict's secondaries and Jericho primary.

An entrance hall with side window leads to the lounge which has laminate flooring and is tastefully decorated. An arch is open to the dining room from where a door leads to the kitchen.

This is fitted with ivory-effect units, a built-in oven/grill, recessed ceiling lights and down lighting and a good-sized pantry cupboard.

A utility room is plumbed for a washing machine and vented for a dryer, has space for an upright fridge and freezer, and three windows.

Two of the three bedrooms have fitted wardrobes with sliding mirrored doors and the modern bathroom has a large shower enclosure with double shower.

Outside a paved front garden has a gate leading to the side area and rear garden. Here there is a low-maintenance patio garden with water tap and the double garage which is a good size with loft storage.

The house in Thornton Road, Whithaven, is for sale at £165,000 from Cumberland Estate Agents, tel. 01946 691999.
