About this property
The Development
Hilltop Heights is a brand-new, private collection of just ten three-bedroom homes, perfectly positioned above Whitehaven in Kells. Arranged across two distinctive rows—The Rise and The Views—the development includes a mix of semi-detached and detached homes, each with striking façades that provide a sense of quiet individuality.
From its elevated setting, Georgian streets stretch below while open skies, rolling fields, and panoramic views across Whitehaven and the fells frame the horizon. Designed around character and uncompromising quality, Hilltop Heights delivers elevated living with thoughtful layouts, private gardens, and modern, future-ready features including solar panels, EV charging points, and private parking.
Living Area
From the front door, you step into a spacious and welcoming hallway that immediately sets the tone for the quality and proportions of the home. This generous entrance provides excellent circulation space and includes a conveniently positioned ground-floor WC, making everyday living practical and effortless. A solid oak staircase with bespoke metal spindles, located within the hallway, forms a strong architectural feature and showcases the craftsmanship running throughout the home.
Leading through from the hallway, the living area is open, light-filled, and inviting. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, it features a bespoke media wall that creates a warm focal point for cosy evenings or social gatherings. The layout flows naturally into the kitchen and dining area, creating a connected and sociable living environment.

Open-Plan Kitchen & Diner – Designed by You
This is where everyday life comes together. The bright and sociable kitchen and dining space is designed for shared meals, casual coffee breaks, and entertaining alike. French doors flood the room with natural light and open directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
A key selling point of Plot 7 is the ability for buyers to design and choose their own kitchen, selecting cabinetry, finishes, and style to suit their taste. Integrated appliances ensure the space is practical, stylish, and ready to enjoy from day one.
Bedrooms
Upstairs, the principal bedroom provides a private retreat to unwind at the end of the day, complete with a stylish en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are well proportioned and flexible—ideal as children’s rooms, guest accommodation, home offices, or creative spaces—ready to adapt as life demands.
Bathrooms & Flooring – Your Home, Your Style
Unlike most new-build properties, Plot 7 allows purchasers to select their own bathrooms and flooring throughout the home. This rare level of customisation enables buyers to create a cohesive interior scheme that reflects personal taste, rather than a standardised developer finish.
Outdoor Spaces
The gardens are designed to be as enjoyable as they are easy to maintain. Thoughtfully landscaped with paved patio areas, artificial grass, decorative timber features, and carefully chosen planting, they create versatile spaces for morning coffee, weekend play, or simply relaxing in the fresh air. Two allocated parking spaces are located nearby for everyday convenience.
