Freehold I EPC: B I Council Tax Band: G
Higher Meresyke is a striking modern country residence combining generous accommodation, stunning views, and income potential. Set within 3.69 acres of landscaped gardens and additional land, this home balances rural tranquillity with convenience and sustainability.
A welcoming oak-framed reception hall with wide-board oak flooring leads to a cloakroom, WC, and versatile snug, ideal as a study or playroom. A bespoke oak staircase rises to the first floor, while natural light floods the hall from feature window lights.
The open-plan living/dining room is a focal point, with a stone fireplace and two sets of multi-fold doors opening onto the gardens. Flowing from this, the handcrafted oak kitchen by Scorton Sawmills is fitted with quartz surfaces, integrated appliances, and an island with seating, complemented by multi-fold doors to the garden. A utility room and plant room complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the principal and second suites both feature walk-in wardrobes, luxury en-suites, and multi-fold doors to a colonial-style balcony with panoramic Ingelborough views. A further en-suite double bedroom and a family bathroom with freestanding bath complete this level.
The top floor offers two additional expansive en-suite bedrooms with dressing areas and walk-in wardrobes, while a large gym/cinema room provides flexible leisure or business space.
Outside, a slate-chipped driveway leads to a double garage with ample parking. Extensive lawns, patios, and a rear field extend the lifestyle appeal, while the land also generates rental income. There is potential to add stables, which could increase field rental income and attract an equestrian Airbnb or retreat, further enhancing the property’s commercial potential. From the track and surrounding grounds, views of Pendle Hill can also be enjoyed. The home is virtually passive thanks to an air-source heat pump, with the opportunity to add solar panels for even lower running costs.
Situated within a working farm environment, Higher Meresyke offers privacy, space, and the rare addition of previous planning permission for a holiday let treehouse. With easy access to Leeds via Long Preston station, it presents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a blend of family living, equestrian or holiday let business potential, and breathtaking views.
