Property description
To say Ainsworth Lord Estates are excited to present this house for sale would be an understatement... we are thoroughly ecstatic! This property has the best of both worlds with a country side location yet the convenience of a town only 5 minutes away and personally we love it!
The property is situated along a private road accessed at the top of Whitehall Road. Well hidden behind the trees, you don't see the house until you turn onto the driveway and at this moment your jaw will drop! The beautiful stone buildings are highlighted by the sun and are draped in gorgeous Virginia Creepers. As you continue up the drive to park your car you face a panoramic view across the town, all the way to The Pennines and on a clear day you can even see Pendle Hill, Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-y-ghent! It is absolutely breath taking!
The outside space is very extensive, 17 acres in fact and is rough grazing land ideal for horses, sheep or cattle. The land attracts all kinds of wildlife such as deer and pheasant which we had the pleasure of seeing in our short visit to the property. In front of the house there are lawns and a pond for a nice garden area and a large driveway as previously mentioned, with enough space to park a dozen cars! Now let me show you the house. Entering through the side door into the...
Utility Room (4.0m x 2.5m)
which is the excellent place to kick off muddy shoes as the flooring is vinyl and easy to clean. There are base units for storage with a stainless steel sink and drainer and there is a plumbed washing machine. The boiler is housed in here and there is ample space for a large freezer and dryer with space left to set up your ironing board! A window to the side looks onto a bird feeder where you can admire an array of birds and animals while you do your chores. Moving into the...
Kitchen (3.5m x 4.0m)

Dining Room (4.8m x 4.8m)
A lovely living area with exposed beams and neutral décor. A feature stone fireplace with multi fuel burner and wooden mantel creates the focal point in the room.

Further through the house is the...

Bedroom Four (3.4m x 1.9m)
Another single bedroom decorated in neutral colours with carpet flooring.
The doors throughout the house are beautiful wooden doors with latch handles and the windows are double glazed. Each room to the front of the house benefits from the stunning open aspects. The property is full of character and features and is a wonderful home.
The pièce de résistance of this marvellous property is the grand Barn. It is currently used as a workshop/storage but it could be converted into a magnificent home. Currently there are 2 rooms on the ground floor (7.9m x 12.9m) + (4.8m x 12.9m) and there is a hayloft above (7.9m x 12.9m) yet you are far from the roof with ample space for a second floor. There is so much potential for this building and you could be the one to use it!
