An attractive Grade II listed stone house set in about 1.8 acres with expansive, private gardens and direct riverside grounds. The home offers substantial accommodation across around 3,000 sq ft: a large breakfast kitchen, four reception rooms, six bedrooms and two bathrooms — ideal for a growing family who value space and character.
The property retains strong period features such as exposed beams, stonework and mullion windows and includes practical outbuildings: a double garage, workshop and a room over the garage that previously had planning consent for holiday use. Fishing rights on the bordering river add recreational value and the plot provides scope for landscaping or creating dedicated outdoor living areas.
Important practical points: the house needs renovation and some damp has been reported in the study; listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate works. Heating is oil-fired with an older boiler, double glazing was installed before 2002, and broadband speeds are very slow. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the area records higher crime levels than average.
Set within a small cluster of similar high-quality properties in a rural village location, the house is a short drive from the A6 and motorway network and near Garstang for everyday amenities and schools. For buyers seeking a long-term family home with character and a very large plot, this offers rare land, riverside access and substantial renovation potential.
