Description

This charming detached farmhouse presents a unique opportunity for those interested in renovation and investment. Boasting four to five bedrooms and an expansive interior space exceeding 3,000 square feet, the property is situated on nearly an acre of land that offers both privacy and picturesque views over the Rossendale Valley. The property's layout comprises multiple living areas, including a spacious lounge, a second lounge, and a dining kitchen that all benefit from natural light. There's also a versatile study area for those who work from home or need additional space for leisure activities. The first floor provides four well-proportioned bedrooms, along with a family bathroom and utility room that was previously used as a fifth bedroom. A significant feature of this property is the attached barn, which has lapsed planning permission for a two-storey conversion. This creates an exciting possibility for buyers looking to add substantial value and extra living space through renovation. The barn’s conversion could offer diverse uses, such as additional bedrooms, guest accommodations, or even rental opportunities—ideal for investors seeking to enhance their return. Outside, the extensive grounds include well-maintained gardens to the front and side, ample off-road parking options, and a rear patio perfect for outdoor enjoyment. A detached garage currently serves as a gym but could easily be repurposed based on your preferences. The location strikes a balance between rural serenity and accessibility; it is conveniently reachable via well-maintained roads while surrounded by open countryside. This setting not only offers peaceful living but also potential hiking or outdoor activities in picturesque surroundings. With recent upgrades to essential services such as water supply and wastewater treatment, this property is already equipped to meet modern needs while still providing numerous avenues for improvement. For those looking at future potential or simply wishing to enjoy life in a tranquil environment with investment possibilities, this farmhouse stands out as an intriguing prospect worth exploring further.
