A three-storey stone-built cottage set against rolling farmland, this home blends Victorian character with useful modern upgrades. The rear-facing master suite captures expansive countryside views and includes a walk-in wardrobe and en suite. Two reception rooms plus a kitchen offer flexible family living, with scope to reconfigure into an open-plan dining kitchen if desired.
The generous lower-ground level adds real practicality: an integral garage with internal access, a workshop and a secondary utility area create storage and hobby space rarely found in terraced homes. On-street parking and a rear driveway provide additional vehicle space and a sheltered outdoor seating area for rural dining.
Practical considerations are clear and factual. The property has an EPC rating of D, likely no wall insulation in the original sandstone/limestone walls, and broadband speeds are slow. The plot is small and parking is primarily on-street. These points are reflected in the price and present straightforward improvement opportunities for buyers wanting to invest in comfort or energy efficiency.
Positioned on the edge of Bacup, the house is a short walk from good primary schools and local amenities, with nearby towns accessible by car for wider services. This cottage will suit buyers seeking character, countryside outlooks and useful ancillary space — particularly families who value room to adapt and those prepared to upgrade services and insulation over time.
