Summary - 77 Blackburn Road, Egerton BL7 9ES
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Huge plot with barn offering major conversion potential for growing families.
Substantial detached stone farmhouse on a very large, private walled plot
Set behind private gates at the head of a cobbled lane, this substantial stone farmhouse sits on a very large plot and offers spacious family living with genuine scope to extend. The ground floor centres on a bright open-plan living/dining/kitchen with large windows and a separate main lounge; three double bedrooms and a generous family bathroom occupy the first floor. Practical features include mains gas central heating, Starlink internet and extensive private parking within a gated cobbled courtyard.
A major strength is the attached barn and outbuildings. The barn, stables and workshop offer clear potential for conversion to significantly increase living space or to provide extensive ancillary accommodation - subject to necessary surveys and any planning consents. The mature, walled gardens wrap around the property with southwest-facing areas ideal for landscaping, family outdoor use and leisure facilities.
There are some material points to note. The original stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated and the property will benefit from targeted thermal upgrades; some parts of the house and the kitchen offer scope for modernisation. Conversion of the barn will require planning, structural and services work. Council tax is band G, so running costs should be factored into budgets.
Overall this is a rare, characterful village property for a family wanting generous rooms, privacy and long-term potential. The home is well placed for local village amenities, a selection of good schools and nearby countryside, making it practical for everyday life while offering substantial future value through barn conversion or garden remodelling.
