Skull House Lane, Appley Bridge, WN6

This characterful three-bedroom stone cottage offers well-proportioned and versatile accommodation, complemented by ample parking and a substantial adjoining plot, presenting a rare opportunity for purchasers seeking both a family home and future potential.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a generous lounge, where sliding patio doors provide direct access to the rear garden while allowing an abundance of natural light to flow into the living space. The well-appointed open-plan kitchen offers extensive work surfaces, ample storage and a practical breakfast bar, creating a sociable environment for everyday family life and informal entertaining.

The principal lounge and dining room provides excellent flexibility for modern living, with dual-aspect windows enhancing the bright and airy feel throughout and creating a comfortable space for both relaxation and dining.

To the first floor, the accommodation comprises two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a versatile single bedroom, ideal for use as a guest room, nursery or home office. The family bathroom is fitted with a full-sized bath and overhead shower, complemented by a privacy window providing both natural light and ventilation.

Externally, the property offers a particularly unique proposition. The main residence is complemented by a substantial rear garden area together with an adjoining parcel of land incorporating a detached stone building in need of comprehensive renovation or redevelopment. Previous planning consent for redevelopment has now expired, and any future scheme would be subject to the necessary planning approvals being renewed. The plot and building offer significant potential for those seeking a development opportunity, investment project or lifestyle purchase.

The property further benefits from an attractive frontage with driveways to both sides, providing ample off-road parking and convenient access to both the cottage and the adjoining land. The overall setting offers a high degree of privacy while retaining excellent accessibility to local amenities and surrounding countryside.

Situated close to Fairy Glen and Yarrow Valley Country Park, residents can enjoy picturesque woodland walks, waterfalls and abundant wildlife. The location is also well placed for commuters, with easy access to the M6 (J27), M58 and A5209, providing excellent transport links to Wigan, Chorley, Preston and Liverpool.

Rarely do opportunities arise which combine a charming stone cottage with a substantial adjoining plot and detached stone building. Offering scope for a variety of future uses, subject to the necessary consents, this is a unique property that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
