Parkhead Lane, Barnacre, Preston, Lancashire, PR3 1RJ

A Remarkable Historic Farmstead with Approximately 3.54 Acres, Three Grazing Paddocks and Exceptional Further Potential.

Dating from circa 1730, Beesleys Farm represents a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful Lancashire farmstead combining a three-bedroom farmhouse with approximately 3.54 acres of land, three grazing paddocks, ancillary buildings and an intriguing history of planning consent and commenced works.

Set within the attractive rural surroundings of Barnacre, the property offers a lifestyle increasingly difficult to find: a genuine country home with sufficient land for equestrian pursuits, livestock, smallholding interests or simply the enjoyment of extensive private outdoor space.

The principal residence extends to approximately 1,149 sq ft (106.7 sq m) and provides well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors.

The ground floor includes a welcoming hallway, generous living room, separate dining room, fitted kitchen, utility room and dedicated office.

To the first floor are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, providing a versatile layout for family occupation, guests and home working.

The farmhouse retains the proportions and atmosphere associated with its historic origins, whilst offering an excellent opportunity for a new owner to introduce their own style and specification.

The Land A major attraction is the approximately 3.54 acres accompanying the property.

The land is divided into three grazing paddocks, providing a practical arrangement for those wishing to keep horses, sheep, goats or other livestock.

Two of the paddocks benefit from a running water trough, an important practical advantage for equestrian or smallholding use.

The combination of acreage, paddock provision and ancillary buildings gives the property genuine versatility and makes it particularly well suited to purchasers seeking a rural lifestyle rather than simply a larger garden.

Garage, Workshop The property is further enhanced by a substantial garage/workshop, measuring approximately 28'4" x 16'3", providing excellent space for vehicles, machinery, workshop activities, storage or rural equipment.

There is also a garage loft, together with a storage room and WC, while further outbuildings provide additional useful accommodation. For the purchaser, these buildings offer considerable scope.

In particular, the garage/workshop could potentially be considered for conversion to an annexe or ancillary accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permissions, building regulations and other statutory consents.

Planning History Beesleys Farm also benefits from an interesting planning history.

Planning permission was granted on 13 May 2009 and works were commenced, according to information supplied by the seller.

This is an important point of interest for prospective purchasers and may provide a useful foundation for investigating future possibilities.

The precise status, conditions, approved plans and implementation of the historic permission should, however, be independently verified with the relevant planning authority.

We hold a copy of the previous drawings on file - please contact the office for further information. A Rare Rural Proposition Beesleys Farm is difficult to categorise simply as a house with land.

It is a historic rural holding with genuine versatility and scope.

The circa-1730 origins provide an appealing sense of heritage; the three-bedroom farmhouse offers comfortable family accommodation; the 3.54 acres provide meaningful grazing and lifestyle opportunities; and the garage, workshop and further outbuildings create the kind of practical infrastructure rarely found alongside modern residential property.

Whether the aspiration is to create an exceptional family country home, establish a smallholding, accommodate horses or livestock, pursue rural hobbies and projects, or explore the property's longer-term development potential, Beesleys Farm offers an unusually exciting canvas.
