Bank Hall Barns, Bank Hall Drive, Leyland

The Property

The Hayloft is a truly unique property which is quite different to anything else that you may have seen. Located within Bank Hall Barns, a stunning Grade II barn conversion complex of 8 individual cottages, this deceptively spacious home spans around 1,788 sq ft (excluding the garage,) making it one which a mere drive-by shall in no way do justice to. The building itself dates back to around 1600, though it was only converted to homes in 2004, making it a real character property which also offers modern "creature comforts."

The Accommodation

The property is a duplex, meaning that it has a private ground floor entrance hall and then the rest of the accommodation is set over the first and second floors. In brief the accommodation includes: full height entrance hall with staircase to the first floor, first floor landing with stars to both the ground and second floors, open plan lounge with dual aspect windows and open plan kitchen off, bedrooms two and four are located on the first floor, as well as the family bathroom, which also serves as a en suite to the second bedroom, second floor landing with space for a study / office area, bedroom one has a en suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe / store room off and bedroom three is also situated on the second floor.

Exterior

You approach the property along Bank Hall Drive, with the entrance being on your right-hand side through an electric sliding gate. Once inside the private grounds there are gravelled allocated parking spaces for each property, with this property also having a single garage, which is the second one on your right as you pull in. Front the parking area is gated access into The Hayloft's private garden, which boasts a mature lawned area with established planted borders and a paved pathway leading from the gate up to the front door for the property. Surrounding the ground are amazing picturesque woodlands, which are maintained as part of the service change, creating a stunning backdrop which is forever changing with the seasons.

About the Local Area

Bretherton is a small village and civil parish in the Borough of Chorley, Lancashire, situated to the south west of Leyland and east of Tarleton.

Bretherton remained a rural community and today is well regarded locally and quite desirable.
