My Family are offering a very unique house for sale with a lifestyle opportunity for you to live in an award winning 6 acre Eco Co-housing community by the peaceful river Lune in semi rural Halton on the outskirts of Lancaster.
The community consists of private homes, workshops, organic shop, boathouse with pool table as well as other leisure activities, a big converted mill (Artist studios, offices and business spaces run by the community), Laundry and facilities built around a big common house building that regularly hosts social events such as meal sharing where people take it in turn to cook for each other, music events, game and movie nights as well as anything sociable that brings people together. For those with an interest in growing there are shared outdoor spaces for growing vegetables, flowers, etc and shared workshops with all the tools you need. All the homes have very low running costs as they are Level 6 sustainable Passive houses. The community have a separate biomass heating system that provides heat for all the houses as well as a hydroelectric station on the river and solar panels which provides very cheap heat and electricity to the whole community.
The community have several different kinds of houses from 1 bed apartments and 2 bed houses to the big 3 story houses however there’s only 3 of these houses and they rarely come up for sale but we are offering one of these rare 3 story houses. The top floor has 2 bedrooms and a bathroom, the middle floor has a kitchen, bathroom and living area with spacious outdoor balcony. The ground floor is a self contained annex apartment with kitchen, bathroom, living and bedroom area with permission to build an additional mezzanine bedroom due to the very high ceiling. This is one of only 5 houses with private parking in front as there are excellent bus and cycle paths that go along the serene tree lined river lune right into the heart of Lancaster as well as a car share club for those wishing to drive without the stress and financial burden of owning a car.
We are very friendly and welcome visitors and viewings to the community, we even have cosy self contained community apartments for visitors to stay in if you would like to experience co-housing life first and enjoy all the activities like paddle boarding, swimming in the river lune or getting to know everyone over a tasty home made meal, exploring the hills, seaside, culture, history, music scene and so much more that Lancaster & Morecambe have to offer. The exciting 2026 Morecambe Eden Project will also bring lots of interesting job opportunities as well as aligning perfectly with the co-housing lifestyle ethos.
