Character country cottage with 10 stables and 8+ acres ideal for equestrian use.
Over 8 acres of land and expansive countryside views
Bluebell Cottage is a rare rural-detached property set between Shaw and Moorside, offered with just over 8 acres of land, a block of 10 stables and seven outbuildings. The house is arranged as two interlinked living units offering flexible accommodation across approximately 3,000 sq ft — well suited for a large family with equestrian interests or someone seeking an income-generating element from the outbuildings and land.
One wing has a modern open-plan kitchen/diner with integrated appliances, utility and a large lounge with far-reaching countryside views; the other wing is accessed via the double garage and provides separate living space, a games room, shower room and three further bedrooms. Outside there is a long private drive, sizeable garden areas and extensive pasture and paddock which provide significant scope for grazing, livery or smallholding use.
Important practical points: the property has an EPC rating of F and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy efficiency improvements will be required. The home sits in an area of relative deprivation which may affect resale comparables and local services. The scale of the site and range of outbuildings mean ongoing maintenance and management costs should be factored in.
Overall this is a distinctive, characterful country cottage with substantial land and versatile outbuildings offering clear development, equestrian or lifestyle potential for buyers willing to invest in energy and fabric upgrades. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the setting and scope on offer.
