A restored former vicarage in Workington, spread over four floors and featuring seven bedrooms, has been listed for offers over £375,000.
According to the listing, the property has undergone a "full modern makeover" while retaining period features such as the original staircase and coving.

The cellar spans three rooms, one of which has external access from the front of the property.
The listing suggests the cellar could be used as a games room, gym, home office, or creative space, and highlights its potential for teenagers to come and go without passing through the rest of the house.

According to the listing, the church next door closed around ten years ago and is now a house, so buyers are told not to expect church bells on Sunday mornings.
Solar panels have been installed on the roof, which the listing describes as being "in great order."
The property has an unofficial gated gravel driveway to the side.

Located on a no-through road just off the A596, the house is described as having "plenty of parking out front."
For families, the listing highlights the proximity of Workington Primary School, which is "literally two doors down."
Amenities in the area include an Asda superstore, Costa, and Subway at the nearby Dunmail retail park, as well as a cinema.
The town centre is described as being a ten-minute walk away, passing a Tesco.
The property is described as "a character-filled home that's been brought up to modern standards, offering flexible space for family life, work and everything in between."
The listing suggests the home is ready for immediate occupation, with no remedial work required.
