Full Description: The Perfect Period Property Project If You Prefer A BIG Blank Canvas. This spacious Victorian mid-terrace could become a beautiful 21st century family home. It’s in a sought after private street where properties are rarely sold, so don’t miss out!There are only 8 imposing Victorian terraced homes on Lorne Villas and only 4 have changed hands in the last 30 years.That makes this an unmissable opportunity to move into one of Workington’s most sought after streets.This chain free three storey mid terrace does need a little TLC but it’s all cosmetic - making this the ideal period property project if you were looking for somewhere that you could turn into your dream family home.The ground floor has a traditional layout with two large reception rooms (still separate, they haven’t been opened up yet).There’s a separate kitchen/diner at the rear. Chances are you’d want to update the kitchen to create a stylish sociable space.There’s a small south facing yard at the rear where you can sit out with a cuppa and enjoy the sun.The first floor has three double bedrooms, a single bedroom/box room and the family bathroom.There’s another large double bedroom on the top floor - which was built as usable space rather than being a loft conversion (so no ceiling height issues here!). It was originally two double bedrooms, and could easily be changed back if you wanted 6 bedrooms.There’s a small garden at the front, next to the pedestrian only path. If you have a car there’s parking on the neighbouring streets or you can park in the alley behind the back yard.It’s in a very convenient location, taking less than 10 minutes to walk into town. It’s perfect for anyone who works in the centre or wants to be close to the bars, restaurants & coffee shops.  It’s also less than 10 minutes to Curwen Hall, for peaceful walks round the gardens or by the river and it’s a similar distance to Workington Academy (rated “Good” by Ofsted).If you’re looking for a project to create your ideal substantial family friendly home you’ll struggle to find anything as spacious as this, or with the same potential. I’m expecting plenty of interest so call to arrange a viewing.A note on Workington leaseholdMost of Workington Town Centre properties are leasehold, which dates back to when the Curwen family owned most of the land.  They are on a peppercorn rent, usually between £1-£3, and were on a 999-year lease.  Most will have around 840 and 860 years remaining.  They are managed by Cumberland Council and are effectively treat as freehold.  You don't need to ask for permission to make any alterations, other than if you needing planning permission. You can always buy the freehold, which is usually under £150 plus some additional legal costs.  However, most people don’t as the ground rent is so low, and the remaining number of years will last a few lifetimes.  Feel free to get in touch if you’d like more info.
