Situated at the end of a private track shared only with the owner of neighbouring farm buildings, Gilpin Farm House and Cottage each have its own spectacular views across open countryside towards Whitbarrow Scar, Levens Village, Scout Scar and the Lakeland Fells. The properties are pleasantly located on the fringe of Levens village where there is a thriving community, a village store, part time Post Office, Pub/Resaturant, church and well regarded Primary School. The location has excellent road links to the M6 and offers easy access to the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks.

The farmhouse benefits from partial double glazing and is heated via a combination of the solid fuel range cooker and electricity. The Farm House boasts far reaching views towards Levens village and Scout Scar and has "cottage style" gardens to the front and side.

The accommodation briefly comprises Sitting room with feature woodburning stove, generous dining kitchen, utility room, study/fourth bedroom, hall, two bedrooms, with one having an en suite shower room, and a four piece bathroom to the ground floor. The first floor has a double bedroom with en suite bathroom and takes full advantage of the views. The Cottage benefits from having double glazing throughout and oil fired heating.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
