Red Haven is a project and a half but what better place for a renovation? With views like these, you'll be the envy of friends and family once complete! Here, the first thing you’ll notice isn’t the house - it’s the views. The Solway Firth’s right in front of you, with the Scottish hills in the distance. It’s the kind of setting that inspires you - and makes the renovations feel like part of the adventure.

Located in the quiet West Coast village of Hayton, Red Haven’s large plot gives you space to breathe and room to grow. Both personally and physically…

There are three bedrooms - one downstairs, two upstairs. There’s a front lounge with a bay window for watching the weather roll in, another reception room at the rear and a large sunroom on the side where you’ll want to start every day slowly, just taking it all in.

The kitchen is a true one-off, hand-built by the previous owner. It’s individual, full of character, and opens into a smaller rear sunroom / utility that looks out onto the back garden. There’s plenty of outdoor space too. Big, West Cumbrian garden space, perfect for veg patches, BBQ afternoons, or just letting the dogs run about while you decide what to tackle next.

A double garage (that’s attached to the house) gives you options as well. Whether that’s workshop space, storage for bikes and paddleboards or even a conversion project to add extra bedrooms or a stylish master suite (subject to planning permission of course).

This spacious bungalow is not polished, but that’s exactly why it’s so interesting. This isn’t about buying someone else’s idea of perfection - it’s about building your own, in one of the most scenic spots on the coast.

There’s a primary school and a friendly local pub - The Lowther Arms - in nearby Mawbray.

If you fancy a day at the beach or an ice cream, Allonby is only a 5 minute drive away. Aspatria is around the same distance away, just inland. Here there’s a choice of shops and places to eat, along with a station that has regular trains to Carlisle or along the coast to Barrow. Red Haven is a lot of work but the owners have reflected this in the price. This is certainly not for the faint hearted but imagine the finished product.
