luxury houses for sale Wigton, United Kingdom

Hadrians House - A purpose-built equestrian residence of rare calibre, combining professional-grade facilities with refined modern country living. Constructed in 2015 with a clear brief—create a high-performance equestrian facility without compromising on residential quality—Hadrian’s House delivers on both fronts with precision. Set within approximately 7.4 acres, the property is discreetly positioned behind electric gates, offering privacy while remaining on the edge of a well-connected village. From the outset, the tone is established: natural materials, oak detailing, and a restrained palette create a modern farmhouse aesthetic that feels both considered and functional. This is not a cosmetic nod to country living—it is designed for it. The House The ground floor is anchored by a wide entrance hall, finished with oak flooring that runs consistently throughout, reinforcing the sense of cohesion. A bespoke oak staircase with integrated storage sets a practical tone early. The kitchen is the core of the house—bespoke, hand-painted solid wood cabinetry by Woodstyle, topped with black granite. It is properly specified rather than styled: Belfast sink, Neff appliances, wine fridge, and integrated timber wine storage within the island. The Aga is gas-fired with an electric companion, providing five ovens, multiple hobs, and flexibility that suits both day-to-day use and larger-scale entertaining. This space flows into a dining area and onward into a striking oak-framed living area. Extensive glazing wraps the elevation, pulling in natural light and framing uninterrupted views across the paddocks, critically, maintaining constant visual connection to the land and horses. A side access door leads directly to the patio, reinforcing the indoor-outdoor relationship. A secondary lounge offers contrast, more enclosed, intentionally quieter, with a contemporary gas fire and direct access to the patio. Glazed doors connect through to a formal dining room, allowing the layout to flex between open-plan entertaining and more defined spaces. The supporting accommodation is well judged: a fully fitted utility/laundry room with matching cabinetry, a ground floor shower room, and a boiler/drying room designed specifically for country use - wet coats, boots, and kit are clearly anticipated. A stable-style external door reinforces this as a working entrance. A study to the rear provides additional flexibility. This space is currently an office, but equally viable as a fourth bedroom, snug, or hobby space. First Floor The upper floor continues the same disciplined approach to materials and finish, with underfloor heating throughout. Three bedrooms are arranged to maximise light and outlook. The principal suite breathtaking. Vaulted ceilings, exposed oak structure, and a glazed gable end create a space that feels closer to a boutique retreat than a conventional bedroom. A dedicated dressing room and a high-spec ensuite features porcelain tiling and a large walk-in shower which complete this luxury suite. A second bedroom also benefits from ensuite facilities, while the family bathroom is centred around a freestanding bath, finished in a neutral, durable palette. Equestrian Facilities This is where Hadrian’s House separates itself from the majority of lifestyle properties. The equestrian offering is not an add-on—it is the primary asset, executed to a standard that supports serious use. 7.4 acres, intelligently divided into rotational paddocks Outdoor arena (50m x 30m) with premium sand and rubber surface Indoor arena (18m x 30m) with mirrors and full lighting—usable year-round Canter track/gallop running along the boundary, linking upper paddocks All-weather turnout areas adjacent to the indoor arena Horse walker (by separate negotiation)The stable block is equally well specified: 8 full stables plus additional storage stable Rubber matting to floors and walls throughout Solarium for muscle recovery and conditioning (by separate negotiation) Dedicated wash bay with hot and cold water Central cross-tie areas with excellent lighting Integrated kitchen, seating, and laundry area for day-to-day yard management First-floor tack room and rug storageOperational flow has been considered. Movement between arenas, turnout, stabling, and storage is efficient, which matters if this is being used at scale or professionally. A large gravel yard provides ample space for wagons, trailers, and machinery, with straightforward access and turning. Additional Accommodation & Leisure Across the yard, a covered area provides parking for two vehicles. Above, a self-contained studio apartment offers genuine ancillary accommodation—well-finished with oak flooring, open-plan living/sleeping space, fitted kitchen, and shower room. This is suitable for staff, guests, or as a dedicated office separate from the main house. Closer to the house, a garden room has been configured as a leisure space with bar and sauna. Adjacent is a covered patio with hot tub, positioned to take advantage of the south-facing orientation and uninterrupted views across the land. Location – Kirkandrews-on-Eden Kirkandrews-on-Eden offers a rare combination of accessible countryside and authentic rural living. Surrounded by a collection of well-regarded villages, the area is known for its excellent country pubs, traditional inns, and quality local butchers, delivering the kind of day-to-day lifestyle that buyers at this level actively look for, not just scenery. Positioned just a short drive from Carlisle, the property benefits from immediate access to a comprehensive range of amenities, schooling, and services, alongside excellent transport links via the M6 and mainline rail connections to London and Glasgow. For those drawn to the outdoors, the setting is particularly strong. The property lies along the route of Hadrian’s Wall Path, allowing direct access to miles of established walking routes straight from the doorstep. The area provides quiet lanes and open countryside ideal for hacking, while both the Lake District National Park and the Cumbrian coastline are within easy reach—offering a diverse mix of landscapes from fells and lakes to open beaches. This is a location that delivers not just on convenience, but on lifestyle—particularly for buyers prioritising space, access to the outdoors, and a strong sense of place. Summary Hadrian’s House is not a compromised lifestyle purchase. It is a properly executed equestrian property where the infrastructure justifies the headline. If the buyer’s priority is horses—training, conditioning, or small-scale professional use—this will outperform the majority of comparable offerings. The house supports that use case without dilution, delivering a level of finish and comfort that aligns with the quality of the yard.

Perfectly positioned adjacent to the dining room, it offers an inviting space to unwind and entertain. On the opposite side of the kitchen is a versatile study, currently utilised as a home office.

Continuing along the hallway, a practical laundry room features bespoke cabinetry matching the kitchen, space for a washing machine and dryer, and an integrated full-height freezer. A stylish cloakroom/WC adjoins, finished with high-quality porcelain tiling that continues from the kitchen and dining area.

This room connects to a further space currently used as a gym and additional workspace, which in turn links to the annex accommodation.   Annex Accommodation The annex provides excellent flexibility for multigenerational living or independent guest accommodation. Benefiting from its own private entrance, the accommodation includes a spacious double bedroom and a well-appointed shower room. Views across the courtyard enhance the sense of privacy and charm. The annex also benefits from its own outdoor seating area and patio. The connecting room could easily accommodate a kitchenette, creating a fully self-contained living space if desired.   First Floor Returning to the main house, a traditional staircase with stone construction, elegant spindles, wooden handrail and decorative runner rises to the first floor. A large sash window on the half landing floods the space with natural light while framing attractive courtyard views. The first-floor landing retains many original features, including decorative coving, deep timber architraves and solid oak doors throughout. West House offers four generous double bedrooms, each beautifully presented and filled with character. Two guest bedrooms are served by a luxurious family bathroom. This stunning space features a walk-in shower, roll-top bath with traditional fittings, bespoke vanity storage, double sinks and floor-to-ceiling tiling combining natural stone and wood-effect finishes.

The first is a beautifully landscaped courtyard enclosed by attractive period buildings. A rustic brick driveway is complemented by caber chippings, mature planting and carefully maintained borders. A central raised bed planted with box and yew surrounds a mature specimen tree, while pleached hornbeam hedging provides privacy and year-round structure. A range of useful outbuildings provide excellent storage, workshop facilities and garage space. Currently utilised as a garden storage area, these versatile buildings offer excellent potential for a variety of uses. To the opposite side of the property lies a delightful private garden. A large lawn is surrounded by mature trees, colourful shrubs and established cottage-style planting. Directly outside the kitchen and dining room, a patio seating area provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining, entertaining or simply enjoying a morning coffee. The gardens have been thoughtfully designed with a variety of seating areas, including a charming sunken patio and additional paved terraces surrounded by vibrant planting. The result is a wonderfully private and peaceful outdoor environment that complements the character of the house perfectly.   Location Thursby is a highly regarded Cumbrian village, offering an attractive balance of countryside living and accessibility.

Thackwood Nook Raughton Head, Cumbria A Remarkable Grade II Listed Farmhouse Dating Back to 1614, Set Within Approximately 5 Acres of Private Gardens, Woodland and Grounds Steeped in over 400 years of history, Thackwood Nook is an exceptional Grade II listed former farmhouse occupying a magical setting surrounded by mature gardens, natural woodland and open lawns. Dating back to the early 17th century, this substantial family home blends period character and architectural heritage with the warmth and practicality required for modern family living. Owned and lovingly restored by the current family since 1996, the property has been sympathetically renovated throughout, carefully preserving the integrity and soul of the original farmhouse while creating a comfortable and highly adaptable home. Original beams, exposed stonework, ornate joinery, traditional fireplaces and historic detailing feature prominently throughout. Occupying approximately five acres, the grounds are every bit as impressive as the house itself, with formal gardens, orchard areas, woodland walks, a stream and pond creating an atmosphere rarely found on the open market. Accommodation Ground Floor Approached via a traditional front porch, the entrance immediately sets the tone for the property, offering an unmistakable sense of history and craftsmanship. The first reception room is currently utilised as a beautiful library, complete with an original open fireplace and intricately detailed built-in cabinetry. Beyond, the main hallway provides access to the principal reception rooms. The formal lounge is an elegant and welcoming space centred around a striking stone fireplace with matching stone arch detailing. A large window with working shutters floods the room with natural light. To the rear of the property sits a versatile study with original stone flooring, exposed beams and dual aspect views. Thanks to its generous proportions and position within the home, this room could equally serve as a snug, office, playroom or additional reception space. A useful downstairs WC is positioned just off the hallway, alongside access to the traditional cellar. Rich in atmosphere, the cellar features stone flooring, sandstone sconces and a vaulted arched ceiling. A secondary hallway with attractive wood panelling leads through to the rear entrance and into the heart of the home — a magnificent farmhouse kitchen. Fitted with bespoke solid wood shaker-style cabinetry, traditional stone flooring and a practical central island housing the sink, the kitchen perfectly balances functionality with timeless character. Two large sash windows with window seats overlook the rear gardens and capture the evening sun beautifully. Adjoining the kitchen is a substantial pantry offering extensive storage alongside further original character features. The garden room sits just off the kitchen and enjoys French doors opening directly onto the gardens, creating an ideal connection between the house and outdoor spaces. Also accessed from the kitchen is the formal dining room — a room with genuine presence and a wonderful sense of occasion. A substantial stone fireplace and arch create a striking focal point, while decorative timber panelling enhances the period atmosphere. This space comfortably accommodates large-scale entertaining and family gatherings. One of the defining strengths of the ground floor layout is the circular flow between rooms, allowing the accommodation to feel both highly sociable and flexible for a variety of lifestyles.   First Floor The original staircase rises to a generous landing where a large rear-facing window fills the space with natural light and offers attractive views across the gardens. The staircase itself is beautifully characteristic of the period, featuring a solid timber handrail with traditional iron spindles. The first floor provides five generous double bedrooms, each with its own distinct personality and period charm. Original fireplaces, exposed beams and traditional detailing continue throughout. The family bathroom is centrally positioned, while a secondary shower room is located beneath the staircase leading to the upper floor. Second Floor Occupying the top floor is a substantial and highly versatile space currently arranged as three generous rooms alongside additional storage areas. With plumbing already in place via the existing bathroom, this level offers enormous potential for reconfiguration depending on individual requirements. The space could readily provide additional double bedrooms, guest accommodation, studio space, extensive home working facilities or creative hobby rooms.   Outbuildings & Garaging Thackwood Nook benefits from an impressive range of traditional outbuildings accessed from the rear courtyard. Particularly noteworthy is the substantial double-height workshop building featuring a mezzanine level. Rich in character and full of potential, this space would make an exceptional workshop, entertaining barn, studio or hobby area. A historic original wash basin with integrated fire beneath remains a striking focal point and offers exciting potential to create a bespoke fireplace or pizza oven feature. Beneath the mezzanine is additional external storage, currently housing a fascinating surviving example of early engineering — an original Victorian/Edwardian generator and battery storage system believed to date from circa 1890. Beyond lies a private rear courtyard, useful storage areas and a traditional potting shed providing access back around to the front of the property. A generous detached double garage is accessed from the rear driveway and provides ample parking and storage space.   Gardens & Grounds The grounds at Thackwood Nook are genuinely exceptional. To the rear, the gardens incorporate a productive orchard with apple, plum and pear trees alongside expansive lawns and mature planting. This area enjoys excellent evening sunlight and offers a peaceful setting for outdoor dining and family life. The front gardens are particularly special. Mature trees and traditional stone walls frame sweeping lawns which draw the eye down towards the enchanting woodland gardens below. Stone steps descend into a beautifully natural landscape filled with wild garlic, flowering plants and mature trees surrounding a tranquil pond and crystal-clear stream. Winding pathways meander through this atmospheric setting, creating an almost storybook-like environment rich in wildlife and seasonal colour. Adjacent to the property is a small paddock extending to approximately half an acre, offering potential for a kitchen garden, recreational use or a small pony paddock.   Location – Raughton Head Raughton Head is a highly regarded rural village offering an increasingly rare balance of peaceful countryside living without isolation. Surrounded by rolling Cumbrian scenery and fantastic walking routes, the area is ideal for those seeking outdoor lifestyle appeal while remaining highly accessible. The village itself benefits from a well-regarded local primary school, church and strong sense of community, while the nearby market town of Dalston — just five minutes away — provides an excellent range of everyday amenities including popular pubs, cafés, shops, medical facilities, a railway station and both primary and secondary schooling. For commuters, the location is exceptionally convenient. The M6 motorway is easily accessible, while Carlisle’s mainline railway station provides direct services to London in just over three hours, with both Glasgow and Edinburgh reachable in little over an hour. The wider area offers outstanding access to the Lake District National Park, the Solway Coast and some of the region’s finest countryside, making Thackwood Nook ideally positioned for those seeking a genuine Cumbrian lifestyle property.   A Home Rich in Heritage Thackwood Nook is believed to date back to at least 1614, with a marriage stone above the front door recording the union of John Simpson and Elizabeth Featherstonehaugh in 1618. Over the centuries the house has evolved sympathetically, with notable historical connections including Susanna Blamire — often referred to as the “Muse of Cumberland” — and William Blamire, former Whig MP and Chairman of the Tithe Commission. The property is also linked to the historic “Red Spear Men” of Inglewood Forest, with a carved stone figure still visible above the front dormer window — a fascinating reminder of the property’s long and storied past. Few homes offer this level of architectural authenticity, historical significance and environmental beauty within such a practical and accessible setting.     GENERAL REMARKS AND INFORMATION Viewings: Strictly by appointment through the sole selling agents Fine & Country.

Quietly situated in glorious countryside, Burnfoot House is offered for sale as a whole with one main residence and five stone-built holiday cottages, detached double garage, garden grounds and one mile of mixed single and double bank fishing on the River Esk (sea trout and salmon). In all, approximately 14 acres. This impressive B Listed country home is a fine example of the Victorian Scottish vernacular, and offers well-presented accommodation over three floors, with retained original features including ornate ceiling cornices and a grand main staircase. Burnfoot House belonged to the Duke of Buccleuch in the 18th century and has strong ties to the Malcolm family who travelled extensively in Asia with one family member, Stephana, being credited with introducing curry to Scotland in the 1780s.  The Malcolms were also a naval family, and the fire in the drawing room is rumoured to have come from a supporting frigate at the Battle of Trafalgar. All properties have been very well maintained by the present owners and this portfolio offers an excellent business/lifestyle opportunity with scope for significant letting income but is equally suitable for multi-generational living.   Main House A solid timber front door opens into a generous porch and the large, pillared reception hall. The hall is extremely impressive with original flagstone floors, high ceilings and a fine solid timber staircase that gently ascends to the first floor.  There are four reception rooms on the ground floor. The drawing room is a fantastic space boasting high ceilings, a dual aspect with tall sash windows, a ‘captain’s’ stove set within an impressive mantelpiece and ornate ceiling cornice work.
