Description
5 Esk Avenue, Ramsbottom, BL0 0JA
SEE THE VIDEO TOUR FOR THIS HOME
Welcome to 5 Esk Avenue – a rare opportunity in Edenfield, where a spacious home, impressive plot, and exciting future possibilities come together.
This substantial detached home sits on a generous plot at the edge of this quiet cul-de-sac, home to just eight houses. It’s no wonder the current owners were immediately drawn to it – the sheer space, the peace and quiet, and the scope to grow make it a truly unique offering.
Exciting Development Opportunities
What really sets 5 Esk Avenue apart is the future potential it holds. Planning permission has already been granted for two distinct projects:
A brand new self-build eco-home – demolishing the existing dwelling and creating a bespoke, energy-efficient home complete with an integral garage.
Substantial extensions to the existing house – including two-storey and single-storey side and rear extensions, a new detached double garage, transforming the flat roof dormer into a dual-pitched dormer, and various updates to windows, doors, landscaping and boundaries.
And that’s not all. Next door, there’s a plot of land where number 3 Esk Avenue would have been – offering the tantalising prospect of creating a further dwelling (subject to relevant consents). It’s a rare chance to put your stamp on this already generous setting and shape a family home that grows with you.
Inside the Home
Step inside, and you’re welcomed by a bright hallway that sets the tone for what’s to come. The spacious open-plan kitchen/diner has been thoughtfully finished with solid wood painted cabinetry, Neff appliances, Karndean flooring, and a Morso woodburning stove – creating a warm and inviting space for family life and entertaining.
The living room is calm and comfortable, with dual aspect windows that fill the space with natural light throughout the day.
Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms await, all bright and airy. The principal bedroom enjoys green views and boasts a handy walk-in dressing area – perfect for keeping your wardrobe organised and out of sight. The family bathroom features a contemporary Duravit suite for a touch of luxury.
Outside and Surroundings
Outside, the size of the plot speaks for itself – there’s endless parking, sun-drenched garden spaces that have been perfect for entertaining, and the freedom to extend or reimagine (thanks to the planning consents in place). It’s a setting that has hosted countless garden gatherings over the years, with green views in every direction.
The location is just as appealing. You’re within strolling distance of the village pub, local cafes, and Edenfield Primary School. Commuters will appreciate the X41 bus route to Manchester close by, while the M66 offers easy access to Bury, Manchester, and Burnley. The heritage East Lancs Steam Railway also passes nearby, adding a charming, nostalgic touch to the local area.
A Home Loved and Ready for its Next Chapter
For the current owners, this home has been a joyful place to raise a family – a place where the children had the freedom to roam and visitors never had trouble finding a parking spot. Now, with their own plans moving in a new direction, it’s time to pass on the keys to someone who sees the same endless possibilities.
If you’re looking for a home with space to grow, exciting development potential, and that perfect balance of seclusion and convenience, 5 Esk Avenue is waiting for you.
