CHARMING STONE COTTAGE WITH CHARACTER BALCONY OVERLOOKING RIVER & COUNTRYSIDE COSY LOG BURNER & TWO DOUBLE BEDROOMS A DREAM FIRST HOME WITH A DIFFERENCE.


Set well back from the road within a small row of similar stone properties, this charming garden-fronted terraced cottage offers a delightful combination of character, comfort and genuinely unusual outdoor views. With spacious yet cosy accommodation arranged over three floors, a log burner, two double bedrooms and a balcony overlooking the river and open countryside, this is a home that should prove particularly appealing to first-time buyers.

Warmed by gas central heating and complemented by double glazing, the accommodation opens into an impressive, roughly square living room which immediately sets the tone for the property. Filled with character and enjoying views over the cottage-style front garden, this generous reception space provides plenty of room for both relaxing and entertaining, with the beautiful log burner creating an especially inviting focal point during the colder months.

Beyond the living room is a compact but well-planned kitchen, fitted with a range of wall and base units and offering access through patio doors directly onto the balcony. This is undoubtedly one of the property’s standout features. Overlooking the river and open fields beyond, the balcony provides a rare opportunity to sit outside, enjoy the changing seasons and make the most of the property’s open rear aspect.

Stairs descend from the living room to a useful galley-style cellar, providing excellent additional storage and utility space. There is plumbing for a washing machine together with the central heating boiler.

Rising to the first floor, there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The master bedroom is positioned to the front, while bedroom two benefits from a built-in wardrobe and enjoys lovely views across the river and surrounding open landscape.

Completing the accommodation is a modern three-piece bathroom, fitted with a bath and shower over, wash basin and WC.

Outside, the property enjoys a pleasant garden frontage together with the exceptional elevated balcony to the rear, creating a lovely space from which to appreciate the river and open countryside beyond. The combination of character, outdoor space and uninterrupted views makes this a particularly appealing proposition for those looking for something a little different.

Bacup also provides convenient access to neighbouring Rawtenstall and the wider Rossendale Valley, with excellent countryside and walking opportunities close at hand.
