Semi-Detached Bungalow
This charming 2 bed semi-detached bungalow is set in the peaceful village of Drigg, offering a quiet, rural lifestyle with close proximity to the stunning Drigg and Seascale beaches, as well as the beauty of the nearby Lake District National Park. The home is built with solid, standard construction and is a true bungalow, making it ideal for those seeking single-level living.
The layout includes a welcoming entrance porch, hallway, a bright lounge with attractive bay window, separate dining room that flows into a spacious kitchen, four piece bathroom and two well proportioned bedrooms. Originally a 3 bed home, it has been thoughtfully reconfigured to create a large principal bedroom for added comfort. The property's generous and private plot is a standout feature. A gated driveway to the front provides offroad parking for several cars, and there is a well stocked front garden with larger gardens to the rear. This space offers two substantial patios and a beautifully maintained garden with rockeries and flowering plants. A former air raid shelter, now converted into a practical workshop with an adjoining store and loft space, adds a unique and functional touch to the property.
This bungalow is ideal for buyers looking for a peaceful retreat with the convenience of nearby amenities. Drigg offers easy access to the Lake District National Park, providing endless opportunities for outdoor activities, while remaining close to local towns and the picturesque coastline. Whether you're downsizing, looking for a holiday home, or seeking a tranquil spot for retirement, this property combines the best of village life and scenic beauty.
