Owners' Comments - "Our mother lived here for 36 years and absolutely loved it. She enjoyed the convenience of living near the shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants. Very handy for dentist and doctor, too! St. Helen's Street is a real community, with caring and supportive neighbours, which Mum really appreciated during lockdown. A keen walker, she also appreciated being close to the Lakes and the fells. Having lived in a modern house for 20 years prior to moving to Cockermouth, she fell in love with the character of this house, which dates from around 1750, with its thick walls and old beams. The house was big enough for many gatherings of friends and family and her five grandchildren have very happy memories of Grandma's house. They particularly loved the attic room. She loved her courtyard garden, which she filled with plants and pots, and where she enjoyed a glass of wine on sunny evenings. The house has been a happy home and Mum would be delighted to see it being passed on to a new owner who would love it like she did."
