Description


Set within a substantial and private plot, this impressive four-bedroom barn conversion offers a rare combination of spacious accommodation, excellent outdoor space and exciting further development potential.

Approached via a private driveway, the property provides ample parking for numerous vehicles, making it particularly well suited to larger families, those with multiple vehicles or buyers looking for additional space for work, leisure or hobbies.

The existing accommodation is generously proportioned throughout and includes four bedrooms, with excellent bathroom provision. The standout master suite offers a truly impressive bedroom together with its own en-suite shower room, providing a spacious and private retreat. A further bedroom also benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the property is complemented by a family bathroom on the first floor and a ground-floor wet room.

The ground floor also benefits from a rear conservatory, creating an additional versatile living space with views and access towards the surrounding grounds. A separate utility room adds valuable practical space, while a dedicated office provides an ideal environment for home working.

For those looking to relax and unwind, the property also features its own sauna, adding a unique touch rarely found within a property of this type.

Further Development Potential

A particularly exciting feature is the existing barn, which has not yet been converted. The barn has previously benefited from planning permission for conversion into a two-storey dwelling, offering significant potential for a future owner, subject of course to any necessary planning permissions and consents being obtained or renewed.

This could provide an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a separate dwelling for extended family, a dependent relative, holiday accommodation, a home office/business space or potential additional residential accommodation, subject to the relevant planning requirements.

Externally the property occupies a large, private plot, offering an excellent degree of seclusion and plenty of outdoor space. There is extensive parking and hardstanding for a large number of vehicles, together with considerable scope for the new owners to make the grounds their own. Although the property feels to be highly rural, the property has the benefit of being conveniently located; with motorway links being within a short distance and Darwen/Blackburn town centres being within an easy reach. Local schools and nurseries are also within walking distance, making this property an ideal home for expanding families.

All in all, this property is a superb residence with plenty to offer for growing families, looking for convenience and accessible schools.
