Beechwood, Barbon, LA6 2LJ

Here's our TOP TEN reasons to love Beechwood:

1. A delightful period detached cottage with a four square layout and some character features (stone fireplace in the sitting room, feature fireplaces in bedrooms 2 and 3 and a cast iron fireplace with tiled slips in bedroom 1).

2. Picturesque village setting - situated in the heart of this sought-after Dales village overlooking open fields to the front.

3. Huge potential - to the rear is an attached two storey stone and slate barn with double timber with an attached stone and slate lean-to, GIA c. 877 sq ft (81.5 sq m). The first floor is accessed via external stone steps. Ripe for conversion, this would truly enhance the current accommodation, subject to the relevant planning consent.

4. Partially refurbished since the current vendor's purchase in 2024, being repainted throughout with new floor coverings, the property is ready to move straight into.

5. As it stands - with a gross internal measurement of c. 1564 sq ft (143.5 sq m) a part-glazed front porch leads into the sitting room with access into the dining room. The dining room is open to the kitchen with fitted base and wall units and integral appliances including electric oven, halogen hob, dishwasher and refrigerator. The kitchen has access out to the conservatory style entrance and to an inner hall and utility room with a base and wall unit, sink unit, boiler and plumbing for a washing machine.

6. ...and so to bed - there are three double bedrooms and a modern four piece bathroom with separate shower.

7. Excellent storage - there's a cellar room with stone benches and two attached stores, both with external access.

8. A generous plot, c. 0.19 acres (0.07 hectares) - there are private gardens with a level lawn, mature borders, trees, a timber shed and wood store.

9. Parking - a gated entrance leads to a large gravel parking and turning area for a number of vehicles. If you didn't want to convert the barn, this could be used for garaging.

10. It's a great base for exploring the Dales and the Lakes District National Parks as well as both the Forest of Bowland and Arnside and Silverdale National Landscapes. Fresh air and fun, whichever direction you take and whatever your pleasure.
