Solway Sunsets, Sea Views And A Pizza Oven? Live the Cumbrian coastal dream in a quiet, elevated spot. This stylish four-bed bungalow gives you laid-back living, sweeping views and proper pizza nights. You might spot a golfer but there’s no tourists in sight.
Perched up high and slightly removed from the bustle of St Bees, ‘Bolam’ is set in a peaceful hillside position, with sweeping views across the golf course and out to the Irish Sea. The sunsets here are something else - and you’ve got a front-row seat every night.
Inside, it’s in superb condition and ready for you to enjoy.
There’s a light-filled lounge with a lovely stove for warming you up on chilly evenings, which flows into the dining room - both looking out across the gardens.
The kitchen’s modern and stylish with plenty of storage space in the cream fitted units. Whether you’re making a quick cuppa or prepping dough for the pizza oven outside, it’s a space that works.
All on one level, you’ve got three double bedrooms and a fourth that's ideal as a nursery, study or dressing room. The main bathroom is fully tiled, plus there’s an extra shower room for busy mornings or washing sandy feet after a beach walk.
Outside, this place really comes into its own. The lawn rolls down the hillside, there’s a pergola-covered patio for long summer evenings and the outdoor pizza oven gives you a great excuse to have people round.
Under the bungalow is a single garage with an electric door and a similar sized workshop/storage room attached - ideal for bikes, boards or just keeping the house clutter-free.
The location is tucked away from the tourist trail and the C2C walkers in the village. It’s peaceful without being remote, only taking around 10 minutes to walk up to the village, but also being a similar distance to a much quieter stretch of beach.
It’s a great place to bring up a family. St Bees Village Primary (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is less than 10 minutes walk away. For older kids, the modern West Lakes Academy (another “Good” school) in Egremont less than 10 drive away and there’s also the highly regarded St Bees School, if you prefer independent schools.
It’s likely you’ll head to Egremont for your day-to-day needs, it has everything you’d want, with a range of local shops and an active local community.
Having said that, Whitehaven is only 15 minutes in the car, where you’ll find all the bigger name stores, restaurants and takeaways.
And there’s no need to always take the car. St Bees has its own station with regular trains to Whitehaven, Barrow and Carlisle, where you can connect to the wider UK rail network.
If you’re after space, sea air and a slower pace of life - with room for family, friends or just great homemade pizza - Bolam might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.
Make sure you don’t miss the chance to see it for yourself - call now to arrange a private viewing.
