Whether you’re looking for a complete lifestyle change, a beachside getaway or a cashflowing holiday let, this superb nearly new detached home is a rare find. Perched on a remote crop between the sea and an embankment, this remarkable home sits among a small collection of houses and holiday lets that really couldn’t be any closer to the sea. It sits on a substantial plot, with room for a spacious drive and composite decked seating area at the front. But the best part has to be your own section of beach - included in the deeds - which lies just beyond your own small garden and parking area. Only built around a year ago, this impressive home stands out amongst its more traditional neighbours as a first-class example of modern construction & thoughtful design. As you’d expect, the layout has been designed to make the most of the unique location & unbeatable sea views. The spacious ground floor kitchen / family room takes a prominent position at the front, with two sets of patio doors looking out over the decking to the sea. It’s a lovely, light and bright space where you’ll all enjoy spending time together as a family. The kitchen spec is impressive, with the modern day essential island unit, quartz worktops, a trendy Quooker tap and top of the range appliances. The ground floor kitchen / family room is so spacious and welcoming you may not need the first floor lounge - once again positioned at the front to make the most of the views. That would allow it to be used as another bedroom - inevitably the most sought after bedroom, given it would be the one with the stunning views. The current layout has three downstairs bedrooms (one with a stylish en-suite shower room) and the gorgeous family bathroom, complete with a modern freestanding bath. Upstairs has two further bedrooms, an additional w/c with plumbing for a bath and/or shower and the lounge/sixth bedroom at the front. By now you’ll have sensed that the location is a little unusual. And clearly it won’t be for everyone. You need to head down narrow country lanes to get access, but when you get there it’s not like an isolated bothy where your nearest neighbour is miles away. You’re one of a couple of dozen dwellings overlooking the sea and your neighbours are right next to you, on either side. This property is designed to make the most of what’s out front, as the space behind is limited by the embankment, on which sits the railway line between Nethertown and St Bees. The trains that run between 7am and 8pm aren’t frequent, only a couple an hour at most, and after a while you won’t even notice them (helped by the modern glazing). But then the location has huge positives. Being a pebble’s throw from the sea is by far the strongest pull.  It’s also a fantastic base for exploring the National Park, with both Ennerdale and Wast Water under half an hours drive away (or around an hour on your bike). You may not think it when looking out to sea, but the property is only 10 minutes drive from both St Bees and Egremont. Sellafield is around 15 minutes away. If you have kids it would be the perfect spot to hone their open swimming skills. For a more traditional education, they’d need to head to St Bees Village Primary or the West Lakes Academy in Egremont (both classed as ‘Good’ schools by Ofsted). This is a stunning modern property in a unique beachside location. If you weren’t thinking of a permanent lifestyle change it would be the perfect investment to make the most of the “UK Staycation” boom. It’s around 90 minutes drive from both the M6 and the West Coast Mainline at Oxenholme, giving access to millions of potential guests looking for a secluded coastal getaway. And don’t forget you’ll then have your very own remote seaside getaway at your disposal, whenever you fancy a quiet weekend away… We know this impressive home won’t be for everyone - but some people really will ‘get it’ and fall in love with the combination of superb quality and unique location.
