Description

This four-bedroom detached home, situated within a gated community in the picturesque Ribble Valley, presents an intriguing investment opportunity with significant renovation potential. Current issues related to breaches of the Building Act 1984 have been identified and further investigation is necessary, offering prospective buyers the chance to enhance and customize the property according to their vision. The residence spans three thoughtfully arranged floors that showcase spacious living areas. On the ground floor, two adaptable reception rooms are complemented by a well-equipped kitchen, utility space, and a versatile room suitable for a cinema or gym. The first floor features an open-plan area designed for both relaxation and entertainment, boasting a stylish kitchen with quartz worktops and bi-fold doors leading to a terrace that promises stunning countryside views. The second floor houses four generous double bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities and additional storage solutions. Externally, the property benefits from landscaped grounds, ample parking space, and an integral garage. Although it requires attention to specific structural elements highlighted by local authorities, those willing to invest can transform this property into an exceptional family home in a sought-after location known for its natural beauty and excellent amenities.
