Summary - Quernmore House, Quernmore LA2 9EN
6 bed 2 bath Detached
Magnificent period house, huge plot, planning consent for major extension and modernisation.
Approximately 4.55 acres with panoramic countryside views
Quernmore House is a substantial mid‑19th century property set in about 4.55 acres with commanding views towards Clougha Pike. The main house provides four-bed primary accommodation, a two‑bed adjoining annexe and a separate two‑storey office building — together offering flexible living, long‑term rental or multi‑generational arrangements.
The house requires a programme of renovation but benefits from a significant recent planning consent (ref 23/00904/FUL) for full reconfiguration and extension, conversion of the detached building to ancillary accommodation, detached garage, ground source heating and new sewage treatment. That permission materially increases potential value and provides a clear route to creating a large, modern family home while retaining period character.
Practical amenities include off‑street parking, extensive pasture and mature gardens, B4RN fast broadband availability, and mains water. The current heating is oil‑fired boiler and radiators; planning includes ground source heating installation. The property is chain‑free and freehold, positioned in a quiet hamlet about three miles from Lancaster with good local schools and countryside access.
Buyers should note the property’s renovation requirement: internal upgrades, possible structural works, and thermal improvements (stone walls likely uninsulated). There is an existing septic tank and oil fuel supply to consider. This is a project for someone seeking a large plot, significant scope to alter and improve, and who values rural privacy and expansive views.
