Alongside sits a handy conservatory/utility room (2.46m x 2.48m) for all the laundry and boot-room clutter, plus a brilliant cellar/store (3.30m x 3.85m) offering scope for a wine store, gym, or serious storage, and a separate WC for convenience.

The lounge (3.68m x 4.45m) is a real showstopper — a bold feature wall, crackling wood-burner and tall sash window make this a room to curl up in. A dedicated study (2.29m x 3.26m) sits to the rear, ideal for working from home, while bedroom 2 (3.52m x 3.79m) completes this floor, offering handy flexibility as a ground-floor bedroom or snug.

Outside
To the rear, the house opens onto a private, well-established garden enclosed by traditional sandstone walling — a real sun-trap with a paved and gravel patio area, a pergola-style arch, and mature planting including shrubs, climbers and potted specimens, creating a leafy, sheltered outdoor space. The property benefits from a lean-to/conservatory-utility area at the rear connecting kitchen to garden. To the front, a neat box-hedged front garden sits behind ornamental cast-iron railings and a sandstone boundary wall, with twin Gothic-arched doorways giving the terrace real street presence.
Services
Mains electricity, water, drainage and gas. Parking requires permits, of which two can be applied for by the local council.
Location
50 Wordsworth Street sits within the Penrith New Streets Conservation Area, designated in 1992. This is a residential pocket to the north-east of Penrith town centre, where the streets climb towards Beacon Edge. The area is characterised by 19th and 20th century housing ranging from tightly knit terraces to larger semi-detached and detached villas, mostly built of red sandstone under pitched natural slate roofs, with elegant architectural detailing such as arched doorways, bay windows, stone mullions and decorative eaves. It's a short, level walk into Penrith town centre for shops, cafés and the mainline railway station (West Coast Main Line, with links to Carlisle, Lancaster and beyond), and within easy reach of the M6 and the Lake District and Eden Valley countryside.
