Description

Nestled on a generous 1.4-acre plot, this property offers an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment in a semi-rural setting. The detached farmhouse, while in need of extensive refurbishment, features four bedrooms and presents a blank canvas for those looking to create their dream home or capitalize on its potential as a rental property. Accompanying the farmhouse are several outbuildings, including a stable block with a tack room and a double garage. These structures not only enhance the property's utility but also provide additional avenues for development. Notably, there is existing planning permission in principle for the construction of two detached dwellings, making this an enticing prospect for investors seeking to expand their portfolio or develop further. Accessed via double gates off Back Lane, the property is set back from the road along a sweeping driveway that allows for ample parking. The surrounding farmland provides tranquil views and a sense of privacy, while still being conveniently located near Longton's vibrant center. This location benefits from proximity to reputable schools and local amenities, ideal for families or potential tenants. With significant renovation possibilities and development prospects already in place, this property represents a unique chance to invest in an area that blends rural charm with accessibility to urban conveniences.
