Summary - Dry Clough Farm, Shelfield Lane, Southfield BB10 3RF
4 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Renovated four-bed farmhouse with outbuildings and expansive pasture, ideal for lifestyle farming.
Approximately 7.68 acres of pasture; additional 8.29 acres available separately
Dry Clough Farm is a rare smallholding offering a beautifully renovated four-bedroom stone farmhouse set within about 7.68 acres, with a further 8.29 acres available separately. The house blends traditional stone character with modern upgrades: ground-floor underfloor heating, double glazing, granite worktops and a vaulted garden room with bifold doors and far-reaching valley views. Substantial outbuildings include a four-bay timber agricultural building and a stone double garage with power, water and storage.
This property suits buyers seeking a lifestyle, equestrian or small-scale farming base. The plot is mainly pasture and meadowland currently used for grazing and provides privacy from its position above the village, yet has practical road links to Colne, Burnley and the M65 for commuting. The garden patio has services for a hot tub and the driveway offers ample parking for multiple vehicles.
Buyers should note a number of practical considerations: the property is leasehold (long term: 980 years remaining), heated by an oil-fired boiler (not a community supply) and broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow. The listing records one bathroom relative to four bedrooms, which may be limiting for larger households. Council tax is described as expensive and local crime levels are above average.
Overall this is a substantial and well-presented farmhouse with genuine scope for hobby farming, equestrian use or simply enjoying rural views and privacy. It will particularly appeal to purchasers who prioritise outdoor space and outbuildings over urban connectivity, and who are comfortable managing oil-fired heating and rural utilities.
