Summary - Moorhouse Farm, Lower Leigh, Leigh ST10 4PY
3 bed 2 bath Barn Conversion
Spacious character cottage with large plot and holiday-let history.
Three bedrooms, two bathrooms in a converted barn layout
Moorhen Cottage is a three-bedroom barn conversion set in a quiet village courtyard, offered freehold with an enclosed rear garden and two allocated parking spaces. Previously operated successfully as holiday accommodation, it has planning flexibility and can be purchased as a residential dwelling. The property has generous overall floor area (approx. 2,638 sq ft) and sits on a very large plot, offering scope for family living or continued short-term-let income.
Inside, the cottage retains period character: exposed beams, feature brickwork, wood-effect and tiled floors, and a spacious lounge-diner with French doors onto the garden. The breakfast kitchen is large and practical, with stairs rising to two first-floor bedrooms and a bathroom. Ground-floor bedroom and bathroom add flexibility for multi-generational use or guest accommodation.
Practical details to note: heating is by an oil-fired boiler with radiators, walls are solid brick and assumed to have no insulation, and some first-floor rooms have partial restricted head height due to the roofline. The interior shows dated fittings and will benefit from updating to modern standards. The property is not registered at the Land Registry; your conveyancer will need to progress registration as part of purchase.
This cottage suits buyers seeking a character home in a rural village — families wanting flexible accommodation, buyers looking to retain holiday-let potential, or renovators targeting sympathetic improvement. It offers strong scope to personalise, improve energy performance, and maximise the large plot and building footprint.
