Description

Nestled in the tranquil landscape of Facit / Whitworth, this historic farmhouse, known as New Barn Farm, is a remarkable opportunity for those seeking to invest in a property with both charm and transformative potential. Dating back to the 1830s, this five-bedroom detached farmhouse offers a blend of traditional features and the possibility for modern upgrades. The expansive layout provides ample space for families or individuals looking to embrace a self-sufficient lifestyle. The property includes approximately one-third of an acre of paddock land that can serve a variety of purposes, from gardening to small-scale farming. A greenhouse and dairy enhance its self-sustainability prospects. Furthermore, the large barn is well-equipped for livestock or could be repurposed as a workshop or storage area, making it ideal for hobby farming enthusiasts. Recent improvements such as a new condensing boiler and upgraded double-glazed windows reflect an initial commitment towards energy efficiency while still leaving room for further enhancements. The property's south-facing aspect opens up opportunities for future solar panel installation. Outdoors, experience panoramic views across the valley and easy access to surrounding moorland—making this property not just a home but also a gateway to nature. With local amenities just a short walk away and good transport links nearby, this farmhouse offers both rural tranquility and convenience. The untouched areas of the home present exciting restoration opportunities—especially around features like the historically significant animal shelter—and could enhance both living quality and property value significantly. New Barn Farm stands out not only as a residence but also as an investment poised for growth in one of Lancashire’s picturesque settings.
