Claytonhalgh, Ribchester, Ribble Valley

A deceptively spacious and extended three-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, occupying a generous corner plot in the highly desirable village of Ribchester. This unique home enjoys expansive gardens that adjoin an idyllic brook, offering tranquil countryside views and presenting excellent potential for further extension and modernisation, of particular note is the substantial attic space, which already benefits from ample head height.

This area provides an exceptional opportunity to create a full second storey, transforming the bungalow into a substantial family home with spacious bedrooms and bathrooms on an upper level, subject to the relevant planning permissions.

Gross internal accommodation - 1255 sq ft (116.6 sq m) excluding garage.

Internally, you are greeted by an entrance hall with a storage cupboard and doorway into a large lounge, where a wide front-facing window floods the room with natural light. A central marble fireplace with an inset electric fire forms the focal point. The inner hallway leads to three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a modern three-piece shower room.

A spacious dining room with dual aspects overlooks the expansive gardens and flows into the kitchen/diner, which is fitted with a range of base and eye-level units, complementary worktops, an oil-fired single boiler, integrated appliances, and space for a breakfast table.

Beyond lies a bright sun room, enjoying three aspects of double-glazed windows and panoramic views over the gardens, brook, and surrounding farmland — offering exciting potential to open into the kitchen to create a superb open-plan living space.

Externally, the property truly excels. The extensive gardens extend to the front, side, and rear, mainly laid to lawn with mature planting, patio seating areas, a greenhouse, and timber sheds. To the side, gated hardstanding provides ideal storage for a caravan or campervan. The gently sloping side garden leads down to a peaceful brook, creating a beautiful natural backdrop with adjoining farmland beyond. A wide front garden enhances kerb appeal, with a private driveway leading to the integral single garage, which also offers scope for conversion if desired.

This versatile bungalow represents a rare opportunity, with endless scope to remodel, extend, or develop into a truly remarkable home.

Ribchester itself is one of the Ribble Valley’s most sought-after villages, steeped in history and surrounded by rolling countryside. Renowned for its Roman heritage, charming riverside walks, and welcoming community, Ribchester offers an appealing mix of rural tranquility and modern convenience.
