An elegant and historically significant Grade II listed home, lovingly restored and beautifully presented in the heart of Briercliffe.

Set within a peaceful and elevated position overlooking the village, Hill End House is a charming and characterful property forming part of the most historically important house in the area.

This charming house offers spacious, comfortable living in a picturesque semi-rural area, combining peace and quiet with the convenience of Briercliffe village with Colne, Barrowford and Burnley nearby. With spectacular views from every window, this character-filled home has been lovingly upgraded with recent improvements including a fully refurbished main bathroom, upgraded en-suite, and complete redecorations across key living spaces such as the living room, kitchen, utility room, and more. Practical updates include new double-glazing to the front door, bathroom and landing windows, external repointing with lime plaster and professional servicing to all 3 working multi-fuel fireplaces and boiler - providing peace of mind to the next owners. There is also the opportunity to convert the extensive loft, providing even more space for modern lifestyles.

Externally, the house benefits from recent masonry and woodwork painting (2025), ensuring a well-maintained and smart appearance.Well-maintained cottage gardens set off the exterior of this picture postcard house , providing beautiful countryside views from every vantage point.
