About
A Unique Historic Residence with 5 Bedrooms, Set in 3 Acres with Woodland, Outbuildings & Rich Heritage Nestled within the heart of West Lancashire and steeped in history, this remarkable five-bedroom former farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of local heritage.
Originally part of Bispham’s Charity—an institution that once provided food to the poor of Upholland and the surrounding areas—this property has a rich past and a character that stands the test of time.
While previously listed with West Lancashire Council, the building now holds de-listed status but retains all the charm and historical significance that make it truly special.
Rebuilt in 1830, the home has been sympathetically maintained, offering a blend of traditional features and modern convenience.
Set within approximately 3 acres of land—around half of which is private woodland—this home provides an idyllic rural lifestyle, complete with mature gardens, privacy from the road, and a variety of unique outdoor features.
These include an original open well, a gardener’s shed, an outside toilet, a large shed with workbench, a summer house with electricity, and a separate art studio/workshop with power supply.
You are welcomed into the property via an entrance hall that leads directly into a charming front reception room.
An internal hallway provides access to the rest of the spacious ground floor, including a rear sitting room with serene views over the garden, a front-facing study, and a formal dining room—ideal for entertaining.
To the side of the property lies a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room, complete with a central island and a Velux window that fills the space with natural light.
To the rear, a cosy living room features exposed wooden beams and a log-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, with French doors opening into the conservatory.
A downstairs shower room adds further practicality. Upstairs, the home boasts five generously sized bedrooms.
The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, while the remaining rooms are served by a spacious family bathroom. Each room offers ample space, charm, and comfort.
The grounds are a key highlight, offering open lawns, woodland, and a range of outbuildings for creative or practical use.
Whether you're an artist, a gardener, or simply looking for a peaceful lifestyle surrounded by nature, this property has endless potential.
