London is an expensive place to live so we thought it would be interesting to see what you could get in Cumbria for the same price as a one-bedroom flat in London.

The one-bedroom flat in London in question is right in the heart of the capital city so it’s unsurprising just how pricey it is – a cool £500,000.

Cumbrians benefit from a much more affordable property market – in fact, for the price of just one London flat, it could be several properties in the county.

Here are all of the stunning homes you could buy in north and west Cumbria for the same price as this one flat:

Bridge Lane, Penrith

£175,000

This entire three-bedroom family home is a massive £325,000 cheaper than the London flat.

As well as a spacious lounge, this property also benefits from a fitted kitchen with space for a washing machine.

To the back of the property there is an enclosed garden with a patio area and even a shed.

Bower Street, Carlisle

£55,000

If you’re on the market for a two- bedroom house in the city centre, this property is situated near all of the essential amenities.

The lounge has a coal effect electric fire and there is a good size yard to the rear of the building – it even contains its own brick-built outhouse.

Mill Street, Maryport

£120,000

This three bedroom property in Maryport is new to the market.

The terraced house is described as “immaculately presented” and “deceptively spacious.”

All bedrooms are big enough to fit a double bed and there is even a patio area to the rear.

Cresswell Avenue, Carlisle

£100,000

This property is described as “beautifully presented” and it has two double bedrooms.

The bathroom is newly fitted and the fitted kitchen has a modern aesthetic with marble-effect work surfaces.
