Description

A Grade II listed stone farmhouse and attached barn in an elevated rural setting near Heapey, surrounded by open countryside. The buildings date from 1692, and part of the barn was converted to residential use in the 1980s. The listing describes the farmhouse and remaining barn as derelict, with renovation and extension proposals referenced under Chorley Borough Council application 23/00655/FLK. Buyers should verify the status and scope of the application and any listed-building or building-regulations requirements independently. The proposed scheme describes two units. Unit B, the existing barn dwelling, is shown with a kitchen/family room, lounge, utility, three bedrooms, an en suite and family bathroom, with a stated total floor area of 1,804 sq ft and two parking bays. Unit A, the farmhouse, is described with a dining kitchen, lounge, utility, three bedrooms, bathroom and en suite, with a stated total of 1,684 sq ft and two parking bays. The particulars also refer to around two acres of land. Chorley is stated to be 3.4 miles away, with Preston and Manchester approximately 12.5 and 25 miles away respectively. The property is marketed by Athertons, Property & Land.

30out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a substantial rural project with real scope: a Grade II listed farmhouse and attached barn dating to 1692, set on around two acres, with proposals for renovation and extension. Parts are described as derelict, so this is a heavy rebuild rather than a cosmetic refresh; the plans offer a route to create two homes, but their consent status and feasibility need careful verification. The submitted images are artists’ impressions and plans, not a reliable record of the existing buildings.

The main reservation is value: at £850,000, the asking price is about £722 per sq ft against a local average of £236, making it look very dear on the available comparison. Its rural setting, historic character and scale are distinctive, but the price weighs heavily on the overall opportunity.

Key opportunities

  • Reimagine the farmhouse and barn as a coordinated scheme, with the proposals outlining the potential for two separate homes.
  • Work with the stone-built character and historic fabric dating to 1692 to create a distinctive rural property.
  • The substantial site and elevated countryside setting give the project space and a sense of separation from the nearby town.

Key risks

  • Parts of the buildings are described as derelict, and the images do not establish the condition of the existing fabric; allow for a heavy, potentially full-interior rebuild and a long programme rather than a cosmetic refresh.
  • The asking price looks very dear against the local £/sq ft benchmark, weakening the value case.
  • Verify the planning and legal basis, listed-building requirements and feasibility of the proposed renovation, extension and two-unit scheme before relying on the plans.
