An exceptional, individually built bungalow with an A rated EPC, impressive living space, open fields to the side and views towards the fells.

Built only a few years ago, Gate House Lodge combines the care and individuality of a self-build with a stylish finish and an unusually impressive energy rating. Its A rated energy performance certificate is a rare feature and a real highlight of this home. Solar panels and an air source heat pump form part of the specification, while the generous rooms and thoughtfully designed gardens make this a property to enjoy inside and out.

The spacious entrance hall makes an immediate impression, with attractive flooring, warm wood finishes and plenty of room to welcome guests. Double doors open from the hall into the kitchen, creating a lovely sense of arrival at the heart of the home.

The kitchen and dining area is a real centrepiece of Gate House Lodge. Spacious, beautifully presented and designed to be enjoyed, it brings cooking, dining and time together into one inviting room. An extensive range of classic-style cabinetry provides generous storage, while the substantial central island adds preparation space and a natural place for family and friends to gather. The island incorporates the hob, with an extractor above, and there are built-in ovens and plenty of worktop space for anyone who enjoys cooking. Large windows draw in the light and frame the outlook beyond the property.

There is ample room for a substantial dining table without crowding the kitchen, making the space equally comfortable for a relaxed breakfast or a full house at dinner. Patio doors open into a small conservatory looking out onto the adjoining field. It is an especially lovely place to sit with a morning coffee and enjoy the open view.

The lounge is equally impressive. Its generous proportions allow for substantial seating, and large glazed doors draw in natural light while opening the room towards the garden. It is a comfortable space for quiet evenings, yet has all the room needed when family and friends come to visit.

The bedroom accommodation continues the feeling of space and flexibility. The main bedroom has room for a large bed and additional furniture, while the other rooms could serve as bedrooms, guest accommodation or a home office to suit the next owner’s needs. The master bedroom features a en-suite shower room and just like the rest of the property is in fabulous condition.

The huge main bathroom deserves particular attention. Much more than a functional room, it has the space and finish to feel like a place to unwind. A full-sized bath sits alongside a separate, generously proportioned shower enclosure, so there is no need to choose between a long soak and a quick shower. A vanity unit provides useful storage, while the patterned tiles add character against the crisp white finishes. With plenty of open floor space, recessed lighting and a high window bringing in natural light, the room feels bright, comfortable and unusually spacious for a bungalow.

Outside, Gate House Lodge offers a series of inviting spaces rather than a single garden area. There are lawns, seating areas, planting and raised beds, along with a substantial summerhouse that provides another place to relax or entertain. A useful tool shed provides extra storage. Open fields lie to the right-hand side of the property, adding to the sense of space, and the views towards the fells provide a beautiful backdrop.

The hot tub is included in the sale. It has its own dedicated air source heat pump, another thoughtful detail that reflects the approach taken throughout this home. There is also off-road parking to the front.

Nestled in a quiet spot between Whitehaven, Moor Row and Cleator Moor, Gate House Lodge enjoys a lovely semi-rural feel, with open fields nearby and views towards the fells. Despite its peaceful setting, nearby towns and villages and their shops, schools and everyday amenities are within easy reach.

For anyone seeking single-storey living with genuine style, substantial accommodation and an excellent energy rating, Gate House Lodge is a rare find. Its quality, setting and sense of space are best appreciated on a viewing.
