17, Fort Street, Read, BB12 7PP

This beautifully presented three-bedroom stone-built terraced home offers an appealing combination of traditional character and comfortable modern living.

Retaining a wealth of period features, including high ceilings, deep skirting boards and classic detailing, the property has been well maintained by its current owners and provides generous, flexible accommodation throughout.

Internally, the property briefly comprises an entrance porch, hallway, living room, open access through to a snug, and a kitchen. To the first floor, there is a landing, bathroom and three bedrooms.

Externally, there is ample on-street parking, a paved front garden, and a large rear yard with outbuilding stores enjoying a westerly aspect.

On the ground floor, there are two inviting lounge areas, both featuring striking Yorkshire stone fireplaces with gas-burning stoves in situ, creating warm and welcoming living spaces ideal for relaxation or entertaining.

The main living room is a spacious area with open access, and useful under-stairs storage, leading into the front snug, which would also serve well as a dining area.

To the rear of the property, the shaker-style kitchen is fitted with cream base and eye-level units complemented by oak-effect worktops, stone-flagged flooring and tiled splashbacks.

The kitchen includes plumbing for a washing machine, an electric oven and grill, a four-ring electric hob, and an under-counter fridge.

Two double-glazed windows illuminate the room, while an external door provides direct access to the rear garden.

To the first floor, the landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms, each tastefully decorated and filled with natural light.

Bedroom one is located to the front and is a generous double room, while bedrooms two and three are situated to the rear, with bedroom two benefiting from fitted wardrobe solutions.

The bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with a panelled bath with electric shower over, pedestal wash basin and WC.

Externally, the property enjoys a large, wide west-facing garden to the rear - substantially larger than is typical for this style of home.

The garden is paved with a small planting area and includes outbuilding stores offering excellent storage or potential workshop space.

The stone-built façade and stepped garden frontage further enhance the home’s traditional appeal.

Situated in the sought-after village of Read, the property benefits from easy access to an excellent range of local amenities, including well-regarded schools, independent shops, traditional pubs and eateries.

Surrounded by beautiful Ribble Valley countryside with scenic walks and outdoor pursuits on the doorstep, the village also offers excellent transport links via the A671 and nearby M65, providing convenient access to Burnley, Preston and Manchester, as well as neighbouring towns such as Whalley and Clitheroe.

Offering a superb balance of period charm, practical living space and a generous west-facing garden, this attractive three-bedroom stone-built terrace is an ideal home for buyers seeking comfort and character in a highly desirable Ribble Valley location.
