The Gatehouse, One Laurel Mount, Bolton Village

Drive through some of the most scenic and panoramic views that Eden has to offer and find Bolton Village, tucked away from the A66 but within easy commuting distance of the M6 North and South and the neighbouring market towns of Penrith and Appleby in Westmorland.

Park your car on the generous driveway which borders the neighbouring property or in the visitors parking on the quiet lane which leads to the grand Eden Grove house, which is now split into private apartments.

Steeped in history and full of character, One Laurel Mount is a truly unique home set in the heart of Bolton Village. Locally known as The Gatehouse, this striking property is something of a village landmark, once marking the entrance to Eden Grove School. Thought to date back to around 1812, this former gatehouse combines rich period detail with stylish modern living, making it a rare opportunity for buyers seeking both heritage and comfort.

From the outside, the sandstone frontage and domed porchway set the tone. Step inside through a secure five-lock composite door into a porch with ornate gargoyle detailing and a Milton tiled floor; the perfect blend of historic charm and practicality.

The welcoming hallway provides space for coats, boots, and four-legged friends, and leads into the heart of the home. To the left lies the premier bedroom, a beautiful architectural space featuring a stone archway, panelling, and triple-aspect windows. With deep-pile oatmeal carpet, clever alcoves ideal for wardrobes, and a luxurious en-suite finished in marble tiling, floating vanity, illuminated mirrored cabinet and a mains-fed shower, this room balances elegance with comfort.

Across the hall, Bedroom Three offers flexible use; currently a music room, it could equally serve as a home office, snug, or guest bedroom. Bedroom Three has glorious views to the lush outlook to the front aspect.

The family bathroom is finished to a high standard with porcelain tiling, a whirlpool jet bath with overhead shower, large chrome towel rail, and built-in storage.

Bedroom Two is a generous double with space for wardrobes and its own modern en-suite, featuring grey tiling, floating vanity, bifold shower enclosure, and chrome towel rail.

At the heart of the home is the kitchen/dining and family living area – an impressive open-plan space ideal for entertaining or relaxing. The kitchen is fitted with cashmere soft-close units, a central island with breakfast bar, Limona oven, space for an American fridge-freezer, and finished with stylish grey metro tiling. A log-burning stove, oak and porcelain flooring, and floor-to-ceiling windows with patio doors give this room a warm and sociable feel, while opening directly onto the garden.

Outside, the south-west facing garden has been lovingly landscaped by the current owners. A herringbone brick patio captures the afternoon and evening sun, while mature planting, raised beds, and gravel pathways wind through to a more woodland-style area with space for a log store and a shed. With both sunny spots and covered areas for morning coffee, the garden is as versatile as it is charming; not to mention offering beautiful views of Bolton Church.

One Laurel Mount is a one-of-a-kind property where history meets modern comfort, and where every detail has been thoughtfully considered. Rarely does a home of this character, prominence, and flexibility come to market in Bolton Village.
