Originally built in 1911 by the owner of 'The Beehive', a once popular store in the historic harbour town of Whitehaven, The Gables is a truly special residence, located within its own, generous grounds, concealed beyond a tree lined driveway. The property also comes with the huge bonus of onward chain.

The characterful accommodation, which has been lovingly restored over a number of years by the current owners, showcases original features throughout, including coving, architraves and picture rails, part panelled ceilings and walls, original fireplaces in feature wood surrounds, window seats, cupboards and original doors with Beehive door handles throughout.

The accommodation comprises a grand entrance hall with an original staircase leading to the spacious first floor. To the ground floor, there are five generous reception rooms, all with period detailing and features, kitchen, pantry, cloakroom/WC, potting shed, boot room and two further storage rooms/cupboards all providing superb character and original features throughout. To the first floor, a large, characterful galleried landing leads to six generous double bedrooms (two with ensuites) and a spacious four piece, family bathroom. Externally, the large plot (0.75 acres) has a private, tree lined driveway leading to the property, and delightful wraparound gardens mainly laid to lawn with woodland area and shrubbery.

To conclude, PFK are immensely proud to market this beautiful and characterful property, now available to purchase.
