84, Moorclose Road, Workington, CA14 5LG

The School Run Is Two Minutes. The Home Is Already Done. No more circling car parks at drop-off, no more weekends lost to a renovation that never quite ends.

Just a house that already feels like home - on a quiet street where the kids can actually play out. Most families spend years making do. A kitchen that is almost big enough.

A school run that requires the car. A home that never quite feels finished. This one solves all three. The living room sets the tone immediately.

A feature media wall with a built-in fireplace and lit shelving runs the length of one side, and the warm flooring runs through into the dining room via an arched opening that gives the whole ground floor a sense of flow without knocking anything down.

It is the kind of room that looks like someone spent real time getting right - and they have.

The dining room sits just through the arch, which makes family mealtimes easy and keeps the lounge feeling like its own space when the kids are in bed.

Beyond that, the conservatory adds a whole extra room to play with.

Right now it works as a salon, but it adapts easily to suit a playroom, a homework space or somewhere quieter to sit when the kitchen gets busy.

The kitchen is fitted in high-gloss cream with a subway tile splashback and rear access out to the garden and the outbuildings beyond.

It works well as it is - and when the time and budget are right, there is a clear opportunity to open it into the dining room and create the kind of open kitchen-diner that most families end up wanting eventually.

Upstairs there are two proper double bedrooms and a third room that works well as a child's room or a home office.

The bathroom has been finished properly - large-format grey tiles, a rain shower over the bath, decorative encaustic floor tiles and a vanity unit with under-basin storage.

Nothing about it needs doing. Outside, a double drive handles two cars without any negotiation.

The garden at the back is low maintenance by design, with outbuildings that solve the eternal family problem of where to put everything. The dog kennels could come out if you wanted more open space.

The street sits set back from the main road, so traffic is minimal and there is real room for children to play out front. St Mary's Primary is a two-minute walk from the front door.

Beckstone Primary is about ten minutes. For day-to-day errands, Harrington is a ten-minute walk with a Morrisons Local, a pharmacy and a butcher.

The bus runs from the road, and Workington station is around fifteen minutes on foot.

If you have been looking for a move-in ready family home where the school run is on foot and the hard work has already been done, this is the one worth seeing first.
