Set high above Newton-in-Bowland, Lowlands Barn is a substantial stone barn conversion with an adjoining stone lodge, offered as a partly renovated, freehold rural complex. The main barn provides flexible accommodation with three bedrooms and three bathrooms arranged over generous, characterful spaces; the lodge is self-contained and benefits from B&B (holiday letting) planning permission. The elevated position and south-westerly aspect deliver long-distance countryside views and plenty of natural light.
The site extends to approximately two acres, enclosed by dry stone walls and two gated entrances, with ample parking, a polytunnel, raised vegetable beds, fruit trees and a sun deck. Services include mains electricity and water plus a borehole; heating is by Worcester boilers with LPG storage (barn above ground, lodge underground) and the main heating fuel is oil. The property retains many traditional features and hardwood double glazing.
Important practical notes: the buildings are partially unfinished and require installation of kitchens, bathrooms and second-fix works. Drainage is to an on-plot septic tank which is understood not to be compliant. Planning history is mixed — an earlier commercial-use application for the barn was refused — so any amended layouts or linking of the two buildings will require fresh planning consent. The lodge’s use is restricted to holiday letting/B&B only.
For buyers seeking a project with income potential, the combination of a liveable main barn and a separately consented lodge is a clear advantage — suitable as a single large residence, multi-generational home, or ongoing holiday-let enterprise. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the space, character and commanding rural outlook.
