Agent's Perspective
Architect-designed and clad in attractive larch timber that complements its natural setting, the home was extensively renovated in 2012 and has been thoughtfully planned to maximise light, space, and the spectacular outlook from almost every room. Upon entering, a welcoming entrance hall leads through to a practical boot room, utility room, and cloakroom/WC. - ideal for country living. At the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining room featuring beautiful Scots pine flooring, a characterful log-burning stove, and pantry. Large sliding doors open directly onto the expansive larch-decked balcony, seamlessly connecting the interior with the remarkable scenery beyond. The spacious lounge is a wonderful place to relax and entertain, centred around a further log-burning stove and framed by doors opening onto the balcony, where uninterrupted views create an ever-changing backdrop throughout the seasons. A particularly special feature is the study/snug, complete with its own log burner and mezzanine level, offering excellent potential as a fourth bedroom, creative studio, or additional living space. A full-height picture window captures another magnificent vista across the valley, while direct access to the balcony allows you to step straight into the landscape.
The principal bedroom suite enjoys a peaceful outlook into the private woodland, creating a serene retreat. It benefits from a stylish marble-tiled en-suite shower room. Two further generous double bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom with elegant marble-tiled flooring.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A detached garage with workshop space to the rear, which can be accessed separately, provides excellent storage and parking, a gravel driveway offers generous parking, while beautifully landscaped gardens incorporate wildlife ponds and create a secure, low-maintenance outdoor space. Beyond the gardens lies the property's extensive private woodland, extending to approximately four acres and offering endless opportunities for exploration, wildlife watching, and quiet enjoyment.
The expansive balcony wraps around key living areas and serves as an incredible vantage point from which to appreciate the far-reaching views, stunning sunsets, and abundant wildlife. The property also benefits from solar panels feeding back to the grid, enhancing its environmental credentials and efficiency.
Client's Perspective
Nestled quietly at the foot of Longridge Fell and overlooking Gannow Fell, ‘Gannow’ has been our home for fifteen years and throughout that time has been a magical haven of tranquillity, surrounded by nature. Every season offers beautiful changes that we have come to eagerly anticipate. The trusty appearance of hopeful snowdrops herald spring, the first call of the curlew in April, the arrival of swallows and the return of the cuckoo in May, never fail to lift our spirits. We welcome the arrival of frogspawn and look forward to seeing tadpoles in the pond, knowing they will grow to become frogs, toads and newts.
Summer sees the house opened up, blurring the divide between inside and out. The garden bursts into life, filled with flowers and colour. Dragonflies dart over the pond by day and bats feast over the pond by night. The buzz of pollinators fills the air. Summer sees us dining outside, and enjoying the long summer evenings and beautiful sunsets, sightings of a barn owl at dusk, hearing the call of a tawny owl after dark. Autumn brings the smell of woodsmoke and the leaves show the last burst of colour before winter.
Crisp, frosty winter mornings and star-studded nights are guaranteed, we have even had a magnificent display of the Northern Lights from the house. Evenings see us settling in front of a wood burning stove, cosy and cocooned.
The wood is magical at any time of year, it is a very special place. Despite the seemingly remote location, ‘Gannow’ has excellent transport links. 8 miles from the M6. 12 miles from Preston railway station with direct trains to London and 6 miles to Whalley railway station with direct trains to Manchester. I work in Manchester and travel several times a week by train, on other days working from home supported by fast and stable broadband.
The small but perfectly formed town of Longridge is 4 miles away and Clitheroe is just 8 miles, offering theatre, cinema, cafes, restaurants, a thriving market and many independent shops.
The area is fabulous for walking and cycling - mountain/road/gravel biking directly from the house. We are spoiled for choice with fabulous country pubs and restaurants to enjoy locally sourced seasonal food.
It has been our privilege to call ‘Gannow’ our home for 15 years. In this time, we have learned so much about and loved being part of the natural world. We have welcomed nature into the garden and wood. If you are not a birdwatcher, you will be soon – at least 18 different birds are regular visitors to the garden.
It is our greatest hope that the new custodians of this special place will cherish the biodiversity and preserve the precious habitat we have created.
If ‘Gannow’ is the place you will soon call home, we can promise you that every day will offer joy and wonder as you live in and learn about this wonderful place.
