Turn-key two-bedroom bungalow with expansive views, large plot and off-street parking — no onward chain..
Detached, true bungalow — fully renovated and move-in ready
A fully renovated detached true bungalow occupying a large plot on Blackburn Road, close to Ribchester village. The interior offers a bright, open-plan layout with a contemporary kitchen, living area centred on a dual-sided multi-fuel stove, and a garden room extension that frames wide open-aspect countryside views. Both bedrooms are doubles with patio doors to the outside, and the quality four-piece bathroom provides a luxurious wet-room style shower and freestanding bath.
Practical details are straightforward: the property is freehold, chain-free and recently updated throughout with sandstone flooring, oak internal doors and double glazing fitted since 2002. The kitchen features granite worktops, a breakfast island and integrated appliances. Outside there is substantial loose-stone parking accessed via electric gates, front lawn, rear patios, external lighting, water supply, an external oil boiler and oil tank. Drainage is via a septic tank.
Notable constraints are factual: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators (no mains gas), the property uses septic tank drainage, and the Energy Performance Certificate is currently rated D. Council Tax is Band E (Ribble Valley), which is above average for the area. The bungalow was constructed in the late 1970s–early 1980s and shows partial cavity-wall insulation; buyers seeking top-tier efficiency may wish to consider further insulation or energy upgrades.
Well suited to downsizers or those seeking a single-storey, turn-key countryside home with excellent privacy and easy road links to the A59 and M6. Low flood risk, very low local crime and fast broadband make this a practical rural choice. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the outlook, layout and generous plot.
