Putting the living room and kitchen upstairs makes the most of the stunning sea views. There’s space for a growing family and it’s in a handy semi-rural spot between Workington and Whitehaven. This is a unique and spacious detached family home that cleverly makes the most of its elevated position to offer breathtaking views.  Its "upside-down" layout might not be to everyone’s tastes but it makes so much sense to move the living room and kitchen to the top floor. That ensures you can enjoy panoramic views from the comfort of your sofa or while preparing meals in the kitchen.  Both the living room and kitchen are dual aspect. That’s estate agent speak for having windows on two walls, rather than the usual one. It means you can look out over the rooftops to the sea from the living room then turn to look inland over open fields towards Whitehaven. The kitchen has plenty of storage in the fitted units, an integrated oven and hob and space to sit and eat. The top floor also has a large double bedroom, the stylish family bathroom and a handy small storage room. You can also get access down a few steps to the built in single garage, where there's ample space for a car and loads of storage space. The remaining three bedrooms are all on the lower ground floor, along with a shower room and a conservatory. The largest of the downstairs bedrooms has a walk-in wardrobe which could be transformed into an ensuite shower room, if you don’t need the hanging space.  There's also he potential to extend the bedroom into the external store room. There’s space to park several cars on the drive and there’s a decent sized lawn at the side, along with a decking seating area next to the conservatory. Storage really isn’t an issue here as there’s a large (16m2) storage room, accessed from the garden. It’s got space for bikes, camping equipment etc - that’s assuming you didn’t want to turn it into a garden bar or games room! Low Moresby is a quiet little semi-rural village but you’re not stuck out in the sticks.  It’s only a couple of minutes from the A595 bypass, meaning you can drive to Whitehaven in under 10 minutes and Workington in less than a quarter of an hour. Moresby Primary School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is only a 5 minute drive away in nearby Moresby Parks - which also has a handy convenience store for your daily essentials. If you’re looking for an unusually spacious and versatile family home this four bedroom detached could be ideal - especially if you like the idea having the living room and kitchen on the top floor to make the most of the views... I’m expecting plenty of interest so call to arrange a viewing. ## Property Photos - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728777) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728779) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728793) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728798) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728800) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728804) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728805) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728807) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728813) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728814) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728822) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728823) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728824) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728826) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728827) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728828) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728829) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728830) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728832) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728834) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728835) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/155283632/728836) ## Floorplans - ![Floorplan 1](/listings/photos/155283632/728838) - Floorplan 1 ## EPC Graphs - ![EPC 1](/listings/photos/155283632/728842) - EPC 1 - ![EPC 2](/listings/photos/155283632/728849) - EPC 2 ## FENSA Certificates This property has 4 FENSA certificate(s) on record. ### FENSA Certificate #4533169 - **Address:** 19 Manesty Rise, Low Moresby, CA28 6RY - **Certificate Issued:** 19/03/2007 - **Work Completed:** 05/02/2007 - **Items:** 1 window(s), 1 door(s) ### FENSA Certificate #3207715 - **Address:** 19 Manesty Rise, Low Moresby, CA28 6RY - **Certificate Issued:** 01/11/2005 - **Work Completed:** 26/09/2005 - **Items:** 1 window(s) ### FENSA Certificate #2565884 - **Address:** 19 Manesty Rise, Low Moresby, CA28 6RY - **Certificate Issued:** 21/03/2005 - **Work Completed:** 21/02/2005 - **Items:** 2 window(s) ### FENSA Certificate #2116354 - **Address:** 19 Manesty Rise, Low Moresby, CA28 6RY - **Certificate Issued:** 12/10/2004 - **Work Completed:** 21/06/2004 - **Items:** 2 window(s) ## Sales History *Recorded sales for this property.
