Occupying an elevated position in historic Mow Cop, this individually designed four-bedroom detached home benefits from sweeping panoramic countryside views and mature gardens to the front, side and rear. The generous plot and large living/dining room create excellent scope for family living and outdoor entertaining.
Internally the layout works well for modern family life: a spacious open-plan lounge/diner with working fireplace, good-sized kitchen and separate utility, ground-floor cloakroom, and four well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs including a master with en-suite. An attached garage and versatile workshop provide practical storage and hobby space, while off-street parking accommodates several vehicles.
There is clear potential to personalise and update the house to your tastes. The property has double glazing installed post-2002 but relies on electric storage heaters and the external walls are sandstone/limestone assumed to have no insulation, so buyers should expect energy-efficiency improvements will be needed. Broadband speeds are reported slow — important if you work from home.
Set in a sought-after village close to schools, local amenities and countryside walks, this freehold home suits families seeking character, space and long-term renovation potential. The elevated position gives privacy and outlook, but the age of the build and some dated services mean sensible budgets for modernisation should be factored in.
