Callender Street, Ramsbottom, BL0

Recently reconfigured to create an exceptional open-plan living space, Callender Street is a characterful and beautifully presented home where original period detail meets considered contemporary design. Generous, versatile and filled with natural light, this distinctive property offers stylish family living across three floors, together with far-reaching countryside views from its peaceful Ramsbottom setting.

With parking available in the garage, which features solar panels to its roof alongside an EV charging point, stone steps lead up to the front door, where etched windows invite light through to the porch, whose high ceiling amplifies the airy feel. A handsome, original internal door with elegant stained-glass transom creates a sense of separation between the outside world and within, continuing through into the main entrance hallway.

Dramatic blue-black architraves and coving add grandeur, also adorning the archway ahead whilst Minton tiling underfoot evokes the heritage of the home for a real sense of arrival.

From the entrance hallway, a single elegant doorway opens into an impressive open-plan living space, thoughtfully arranged into distinct areas for relaxing, dining and cooking. The reconfiguration has created an easy sense of flow throughout the entire ground floor, whilst retaining the period character and individual identity of each part of the room.

Beautiful herringbone flooring now continues throughout the lounge, dining area and kitchen, visually drawing the entire space together.

Turning to the left, the lounge provides a warm and inviting place in which to unwind. Soft neutral walls, original detailing and richly layered coving are complemented by a log-burning stove set beneath a robust stone mantel. Large stained-glass windows draw in the light and frame views towards the surrounding countryside. The uninterrupted wall space enhances the sense of enclosure and allows the lounge to feel both defined and effortlessly connected to the wider room.

At the heart of the space, the dining area offers generous proportions for family meals and entertaining, illuminated by two large windows. Deep windowsills and exposed ceiling beams offer a reminder of the home’s sturdy stone-built heritage.

To the rear, the kitchen has been comprehensively redesigned as a stylish and sociable hub. A substantial central island, finished in a rich red tone with brass handles, provides plentiful preparation space, storage and relaxed seating, with a sleek induction hob integrated into the worktop. Crisp white cabinetry and pale work surfaces keep the room feeling light and contemporary, whilst recessed lighting enhances the clean, streamlined finish.

Whether cooking, hosting friends or simply enjoying everyday family life, the open arrangement allows each area to work independently whilst remaining effortlessly connected. A stable-style door leads out to the side garden, drawing the eye towards the greenery and far-reaching views beyond.

Accessed from the rear of the kitchen, the utility room keeps clutter concealed, with further worktop space and storage, alongside a sink and plumbing for a washing machine. Tucked away to one side of the room, a door opens to reveal a beautifully decorated downstairs WC where a pop of cheerful mustard yellow to the lower wall panelling brings a splash of sunshine, harmonising with the whimsical tone of the scale-patterned splashback to the wash basin.

Back in the entrance hallway, a striped, monochromatic, woven-wool carpet runner guides you up the staircase to the first-floor landing, where deep, recessed shelving to the left is ideal for storing books.

Next on the left, freshen up in the bathroom, flooded with light, and tiled to the floor and lower walls. Warmth emanates from the underfloor heating, whilst a spa-bath is bathed in light from the large, stained-glass window which offers enchanting views out over the fields. Alongside a traditional Burlington wash basin with vanity unit storage beneath, the bathroom houses a separate shower.

At the end of the landing, arrive at a spacious and light-filled double bedroom, with charcoal panelling to one wall and views out over the fields to the side. From above, stargaze through the large Velux window in the high ceiling. Exposed stonework adds further character to one corner.

Returning to the top of the stairs, turn left and continue ahead into the cosily carpeted principal bedroom, where sage green panelling to one wall evokes the countryside views framed by a stained-glass window. Spacious and bright, fitted shelving traces the angles of the roof pitch – painted in a harmonising sage green, refreshment awaits in the ensuite – tiled underfoot and featuring a walk-in, wet room drench shower, vanity unit wash basin and WC.

Back on the landing, make your way right to discover a third spacious double bedroom, carpeted underfoot and with views out over Callender Street and to the distant hills. Fitted bookshelves once again follow the angle of the roofline to maximise storage.

Finally, discover a fourth bedroom on this level, ideal as a home office, serenely decorated and peacefully looking out over the street to the front.

Just outside this bedroom, carpeted stairs reach up to the loft level, where a wall of stylish sage green fitted wardrobes and drawers provide an abundance of storage. Currently serving as a music room with two large sofas, windows to both sides draw in an influx of light framing exceptional views out over the surrounding countryside and hills. Versatile and inviting, this room could also serve as a dressing room or another office or bedroom.
