Set within approximately eight acres of private land on the moors of Edenfield, Valley View Farm is a substantial stone-built farmhouse that marries 18th-century character with a dramatic contemporary extension. Floor-to-ceiling glazing and a vast open-plan living, dining and kitchen area are arranged to maximise valley views; on clear days vistas extend to Jodrell Bank and the Welsh Hills. Original beams, exposed brick and a cosy snug retain the property’s historic feel while generous modern en‑suites and a large utility room provide everyday practicality.
The house offers flexible family accommodation across about 3,358 sq ft: four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a gym/office (former kitchen), and an impressive galleried landing overlooking the main living space. The site’s scale and seclusion will suit buyers seeking privacy, outdoor space and countryside living, while still being within reach of towns, local villages and transport links. Mobile signal is excellent for this rural setting.
Buyers should note some material running costs and constraints: heating is oil‑fired with a boiler and radiators, broadband speeds are very slow, and the EPC is rated D. The property is freehold but sits in Rossendale council tax band F, so ongoing costs on a house of this size and plot will be significant. The substantial grounds and older construction will also require ongoing maintenance and management.
Valley View Farm is a rare countryside offering for buyers prioritising privacy, impressive views and a large, characterful home. It will particularly appeal to families or downsizers seeking a countryside flagship residence who are prepared for the maintenance and running costs of a large, historic property.
