Set within an exceptional plot on the edge of Whalley, this substantial detached bungalow enjoys a truly enviable position, boasting far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside, including the iconic Whalley Viaduct, the River Calder and the historic Whalley Abbey.

Offering approximately 2,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation, the property presents a rare opportunity for those seeking a spacious home within walking distance of the village centre and its excellent amenities.

Approached via a private, gated driveway leading to a generous block-paved forecourt, the property immediately impresses with its sense of space and privacy.

Internally, the accommodation is both flexible and well maintained, having previously been configured as a three-bedroom home, and now offering adaptable living space to suit a variety of buyers.

A welcoming L-shaped entrance hall provides access to the loft, which is partially boarded, and houses the gas combination boiler.

The main lounge is a particularly attractive reception space, centred around a marble fireplace with inset gas fire, and enjoying delightful views towards the viaduct.

Sliding doors open through to a bright conservatory, which takes full advantage of the garden outlook, with UPVC double glazing and French doors leading directly outside.

The kitchen is fitted with a modern range of base and eye-level units, complemented by quartz worktops and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances including a fridge/freezer, induction hob with extractor, oven and grill, plate warming drawer and dishwasher.

Tiled splashbacks complete the space, while folding doors open into the adjoining dining room, creating a sociable and practical layout.

The dining room could be converted back into a bedroom with original doorway being blocked off from the entrance hall.

Steps lead down from here to a formal sitting room, a characterful space featuring a cast iron gas stove set upon a hearth, with sliding doors opening to the front porch.

Further accommodation includes two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from a range of fitted furniture and access to a Jack and Jill style shower room, fitted with a walk-in mains shower, vanity unit, WC and useful storage.

Floor coverings are yet to be laid in the bathroom. A separate cloaks/WC, formerly a single bedroom, provides additional convenience and further scope for reconfiguration if desired.

A utility room is also present, offering additional base units, worktop space, a sink and plumbing for laundry appliances.

Off the utility room is the integral double garage with electric up and over door and external access to the rear. Externally, the property is a true standout feature.

Mature hedgerows, a pond and paved, stepped walkways add to the charm and privacy of the setting.
