Upon entering, the welcoming hallway immediately sets the tone with its high ceilings and decorative coving, with a staircase rising to the first floor.

To the front, the elegant lounge is a beautifully proportioned reception room, centred around a striking marble surround with a grey cast iron gas fire, further enhanced by intricate coving and a large window.

To the rear of the home lies the dining room and kitchen, seamlessly blending period charm with modern design.

The dining area features a characterful Yorkshire stone fireplace and provides access to a useful under-stairs storage cupboard, as well as steps leading down to the cellar.

The kitchen itself is fitted with a sleek range of base and eye-level units, finished with quartz work surfaces and a full suite of integrated Neff appliances, including an induction hob with extractor, double oven, fridge/freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, along with a breakfast bar ideal for informal dining.

The cellar offers a versatile space, currently utilised for home brewing, with the benefit of a window and additional storage capacity.

To the first floor, a split-level landing with a charming curved banister and skylight leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms.

The principal bedroom mirrors the generous proportions of the lounge below, whilst a fourth bedroom provides flexibility for use as a home office or guest room.

An inner L-shaped hallway, illuminated by skylights, leads through to two further double bedrooms and the house bathroom.

The family bathroom is beautifully finished, comprising a four-piece suite, fully tiled to both walls and floor, including a panelled bath, a wash basin set within a vanity unit, WC, and a walk-in rainfall shower.

Externally, the property continues to impress.

To the rear, a thoughtfully designed garden area enjoys a high degree of privacy, featuring a paved patio alongside a raised Indian stone seating area, all enclosed by attractive stone walling.

There is a useful outbuilding incorporating a tiled two-piece WC and additional storage room. Wrought iron railings and stone boundaries further enhance the sense of character and enclosure.

A paved pathway leads to the front of the property, where a gravelled driveway provides off-road parking for up to three vehicles, complemented by a paved seating area and well-defined, walled planting beds.

With excellent transport links, including Ramsgreave & Wilpshire railway station providing direct connections to Manchester and surrounding towns, the area is well suited for commuters.

Surrounded by beautiful open countryside and close to the Forest of Bowland, residents can enjoy a wealth of scenic walks and outdoor pursuits, while still benefiting from local amenities such as shops, eateries and leisure facilities, with more extensive options available in nearby Blackburn and Clitheroe.

The village is also particularly appealing for families, falling within the catchment of a range of highly regarded primary and secondary schools, including well-respected grammar and independent options in the surrounding area.
