25, Wollenscroft, Workington, CA14 4UP

The House Your Mates Will Walk Into And Say 'This Is Sick'. Because you have waited long enough to have a place that actually feels like yours.

Somewhere you can have people round, cook something decent, sit in the garden on a warm evening - and not spend every weekend on a diy project. You know the ones.

The terraced houses round here where the kitchen is barely big enough to open the fridge door without standing sideways, and the lounge doubles as a dining room in the most awkward way possible.

This is not one of those.

The ground floor has been opened up into something that actually works - a high-gloss cream kitchen with dark worktops, integrated oven and microwave, a chimney extractor hood and recessed lighting throughout, flowing directly into a lounge big enough for a corner sofa and a proper conversation.

Light wood flooring runs the full length.

The French doors at the back open onto a south-west facing garden that catches the afternoon and evening sun, and when you have got people round on a warm Friday, that is exactly where the night ends up.

Upstairs there are two double bedrooms and a single. The main bedroom has enough space for a proper bed without the furniture fighting each other.

The bathroom has been done properly - large-format stone tiles, a dark vanity unit with a marble-effect worktop and a vessel basin, a bath with a glass shower screen over.

Practical enough for busy mornings yet luxurious enough for relaxing evenings.

Out the back, a shed handles the garden tools, and directly behind the property there is a garage - useful for the car, the bikes or just the stuff you do not want in the house.

A communal car park provides extra parking beyond that. Stainburn is a quiet residential area, and Wollenscroft has a nice open feel with an open green patch right outside the front door.

Workington town centre is under ten minutes away by car. And The Briery is nearby for the nights when cooking feels like too much effort and a pint with mates sounds considerably better.

If you have been putting off buying because everything in this price range looked like a project in disguise - this is the one that changes that calculation. Call to arrange a viewing.

It won't hang around.
