Why Just Visit The Lakes When You Can Wake Up To This View Every Morning? A 17th-century stone farmhouse with a dream kitchen-diner, a wine cellar and inspiring fell views. Live where others come to escape - a home where 1692 history meets modern comfort.
Set on the edge of the breathtaking Wasdale Valley, Bolton Head Farmhouse offers more than just an occasional weekend escape - it’s a chance to live full-time in the place people travel hundreds of miles to unwind.
Built in 1692 and carefully updated over the years, this four-bedroom home blends traditional Lakeland charm with the kind of thoughtful updates that make every day a joy.
There’s plenty of room for family life here. The kitchen-diner is the heart of the home, with exposed beams, a wood-burning stove, and space for everything from family breakfasts to slow Sunday roasts.
The snug and main lounge offer two further spaces to relax - with character in every corner.
Downstairs also includes a handy utility room, WC, boot room, and a wine cellar.
Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, including the main bedroom which has its own ensuite - plus a stylish four-piece family bathroom complete with an original fireplace.
The garden stretches to around an acre, giving you plenty of space to enjoy the fell views in every season. And across the courtyard, the detached home office gives you a dedicated space to work, create or escape.
Located on the edge of Gosforth, you’re only minutes from England’s highest mountain (Scafell Pike) and deepest lake (Wastwater) and some of the best walking routes in the National Park.
The village itself has a fantastic bakery, a proper local pub, and a well-regarded nursery and primary school.
Seascale offers coastal walks, beach access and train links, while Whitehaven and Cockermouth are within easy reach for a greater choice of shops, schools and places to eat.
This isn’t a holiday let, a second home or a bolt hole. It’s somewhere to fully embrace a new, slower and richer way of life - a home filled with character, surrounded by views and ready for its next chapter.
If you’ve ever dreamed of settling down in a spectacular setting, this is your chance to bring that dream to life.
Don't miss out - get in touch to arrange a private viewing and see what your new life could look like at Bolton Head Farm.
