Low Barn, Barnsley Road, Flockton

Nestled within a charming rural setting, this beautifully presented 18th century stone-built mid-terraced cottage effortlessly blends period character with modern comfort. Thoughtfully renovated and lovingly maintained, the home has been fully refurbished in 2020 including rewiring and plumbing, offering peace of mind alongside timeless charm. The roof has also been turned and structurally strengthened, with approximately five years remaining on its guarantee. Rich in history, the property retains fascinating original features, with the ground floor historically forming an arched passageway through to the rear, a subtle nod to the cottage’s heritage that adds to its unique story. Sash windows throughout allow abundant natural light to flood the home. Outside, the mature rear garden has been thoughtfully curated into a natural haven, featuring hardy perennials alongside seasonal blooms, creating colour and interest throughout the year. Perfectly positioned for lovers of the outdoors, the property is surrounded by excellent scenic walks, open fields and picturesque landscapes, with nearby grazing Highland cows, sheep and spring lambs adding to the idyllic rural feel. A truly special cottage offering character, modern updates and a lifestyle to match.
