Welcome to 54 Speckled Wood Drive - QUOTE LI0465.

Homes of this calibre rarely come to market, and number 54 Speckled Wood Drive is a truly outstanding example of modern family living at its very best. Situated in a prime residential location to the south of Carlisle, this impressive five-bedroom, two bathroom detached home offers generous and versatile accommodation perfectly suited to a growing family seeking both space and style.

Known as “The Winster”, this particular house type is a genuine rarity within the Speckled Wood development, with only six properties of this design built across the entire estate, making this an exciting opportunity not to be missed.

Boasting a beautifully landscaped south-facing rear garden designed for outdoor living and entertaining, driveway parking for two vehicles and an integral garage, this exceptional home combines practicality with lifestyle appeal.

Having been lovingly owned and meticulously maintained by the same family since new approximately ten years ago, the property is now ready to begin its next chapter with new owners who will undoubtedly appreciate everything it has to offer.

From the moment you arrive at the property, the exceptional kerb appeal is immediately apparent. The well-maintained front lawn, complemented by a decorative feature tree and neatly presented frontage, creates a striking first impression, while the addition of bespoke Venetian blinds fitted throughout the windows adds a sense of refinement and attention to detail. The driveway provides convenient off-road parking for two vehicles and leads directly to the integral garage, offering both practicality and ease for everyday family life.

Stepping through the front door, you are welcomed into a generous and inviting entrance hall that immediately sets the tone for the spacious accommodation found throughout the home. This bright and welcoming space provides plenty of room to greet family and guests comfortably, while the luxurious tiled flooring underfoot adds a touch of elegance and continues seamlessly through into the stunning open plan living dining kitchen beyond.

The living room is a beautifully proportioned and incredibly versatile space that offers the perfect setting for relaxing with family or entertaining guests. A large front-facing window fills the room with natural light throughout the day, creating a bright and welcoming environment, while the generous layout easily accommodates a variety of furniture arrangements to suit modern family life.

At the end of the hallway lies the true heart of the home — the spectacular open plan living dining kitchen. This impressive and expansive space has been thoughtfully designed to combine contemporary style with everyday practicality and is undoubtedly one of the standout features of the property.

The kitchen area boasts an extensive range of modern wall and base units complemented by attractive work surfaces and tiled splashbacks, alongside a breakfast bar which provides a perfect spot for casual morning breakfasts before school or work. A range of integrated appliances, including a wine cooler, electric oven and gas hob, further enhance the functionality of the kitchen, while LED ceiling lighting and a large window overlooking the rear garden ensure the space remains bright, welcoming and practical for busy family life.

The dining area flows effortlessly from the kitchen and provides ample space for a large dining table, making it ideal for family gatherings, celebrations and entertaining friends. Decorative wooden panelling has been added to the wall to create a warm and stylish feature that enhances the character of the space. Large French doors open directly onto the rear garden, allowing natural light to pour in while seamlessly connecting the interior living space with the beautiful outdoor areas — perfect for enjoying summer days and evening entertaining.

Beyond the kitchen is a highly practical utility room, an essential feature for modern family living, which helps to keep the main living spaces tidy and organised. The utility provides additional work surfaces and space for white goods, while a uPVC door offers convenient access directly to the rear garden. Just beyond the utility is a ground-floor WC, an invaluable addition for busy households and visiting guests.

An integral door from the entrance hall provides internal access to the garage, adding further practicality and convenience, particularly during colder months or when carrying shopping directly into the home.

Moving upstairs, the spacious first-floor landing provides access to all five bedrooms and the family bathroom, creating a well-balanced layout ideal for growing families.

The master bedroom is an impressive and generously sized double room positioned at the front of the property, featuring fitted wardrobes and an abundance of natural light thanks to the large front-facing window. The room also benefits from its own private en-suite shower room, fitted with a modern three-piece suite including a large walk-in shower with mixer shower, WC and wash hand basin, finished with stylish tiling and chrome fittings.

Bedrooms two, three and four are all excellent-sized rooms offering superb flexibility for family living, whether used as children’s bedrooms, guest accommodation or hobby rooms. Each room provides a comfortable space for furniture and benefits from plenty of natural light.

The fifth bedroom is a well-proportioned single room which is currently utilised as a home office by the current owners, but could equally serve as a nursery, study or dressing room depending on individual needs.

Completing the interior is the well-appointed family bathroom, fitted with a modern three-piece suite including a large bath perfect for relaxing soaks after a long day, WC, and wash hand basin, complemented by quality tiling and chrome accessories that create a clean and contemporary finish.

Externally, this wonderful home continues to impress with its beautifully designed outdoor spaces.

The rear garden is truly something special and has been fully landscaped to create an outstanding outdoor living space that is ready to enjoy from day one. An extensive patio area provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining, barbecues and entertaining friends and family, while the lawned section offers an excellent space for children to play safely.

A charming fixed wooden swing adds a delightful family feature, while the south-facing aspect ensures the garden enjoys sunlight throughout the day, creating a warm and private outdoor retreat ideal for relaxing and making the most of the summer months.

You'll just love this home, and the location is excellent too.

Set within the attractive and well-regarded Speckled Wood development, the property enjoys a pleasant residential setting while still being conveniently located for everyday amenities and transport links.
