We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
An incredible opportunity to acquire a wonderful Lakeland Estate, comprising an immaculate five-bedroom luxury barn conversion plus a four-bedroom traditional stone farmhouse of exceptional character.
Perfect for multigenerational living or a lifestyle income business opportunity, set within four acres on the western edge of the Lake District.
Live the family dream, earn an income, or do both - this is a truly rare find.
The Farmhouse: Part built in the 17th century, Bolton Head Farm is a traditional Cumbrian farmhouse - solid stone walls, original features and an abundance of character.
Four generous double bedrooms, two well-proportioned reception rooms and a large farmhouse kitchen-diner at the heart of it all. Period charm meets everyday comfort, with scope to make it your own.
Around one acre of private gardens and yard surround the house, with the kind of outlook - fells, sky and open countryside - that most people only dream about.
Entirely self-contained with separate driveway access, it works perfectly as a family home in its own right.
The Luxury Barn Conversion: Beautifully converted, thoughtfully designed and finished to a very high modern standard.
A six-person hot tub sits in its own oak-frame shelter with magnificent views of Scafell and the surrounding fells.
Large double-height lounge, double-height separate snug and dining room, entrance hall and dedicated boot room, five stylish bedrooms all en-suite, and extensive grounds - it all adds up to something genuinely special.
Grounds and Outbuildings: Sitting within four acres, set well away from the road and accessed by two hedge-lined driveways.
Mature gardens with stone patios, open lawns, ample hardstanding and paddocks, all set against the backdrop of the western fells. Private, peaceful and utterly beautiful.
An extensive agricultural building offers genuine development potential, subject to planning - ancillary accommodation, workshops, garaging or leisure use all worth exploring.
Planning permission for a swimming pool is already in place. The Views: Scafell Pike. Wastwater. The South Lakes. Across the Irish Sea to the Isle of Man.
On a clear day, the panorama from this estate is simply extraordinary - and it never gets old.
Location: The western Lake District is quieter and less crowded than the central lakes, but every bit as spectacular.
The Wasdale Valley is on the doorstep, with Scafell Pike, Wastwater and the coast and beaches accessible in minutes.
Gosforth village is just down the road with a locally renowned bakery, pubs, primary school and active village community.
Seascale is five miles west for shops, health centre, West Coast main line rail station and beach access. Whitehaven, Cockermouth and Ulverston are within easy reach.
Services: Oil central heating, mains electricity and water, septic tank drainage, Fibrus fibre broadband connected. Fixtures, fittings and appliances available via separate negotiation.
Viewing strictly by prior appointment - early inspection strongly recommended. EPC - tbc. Council Tax - D.
