Summary - Helmshore Road, Helmshore, Rossendale BB4 4AB
2 bed 2 bath Detached Bungalow
Secluded two‑bed bungalow on circa 5 acres with historic railway features and ample parking..
Private gated entrance to approximately 5 acre plot
Set well back from Helmshore Road, this detached two‑bed bungalow occupies an exceptional private plot of approximately 5 acres, including woodland, gardens and remnants of an historic railway line. The building combines handsome stonework, vaulted ceilings and exposed timber beams with practical single‑level living, making it an attractive option for buyers seeking character and seclusion without multiple floors to manage.
Externally the property impresses: gated entrance, long driveway and genuinely ample off‑road parking, multiple garden areas and wooded walks across the former railway land. Internally the layout was formed from two former cottages and offers a lounge, dining room, sunroom, two bedrooms (one with en‑suite), two shower rooms and an externally accessed utility/outhouse — a straightforward, flexible plan that suits downsizers or purchasers wanting a characterful home with scope for modernisation.
Buyers should note the bungalow’s compact kitchen footprints and some awkward room proportions created by the original cottage layout. No specific structural defects are stated, but purchasers must satisfy themselves about services, fixtures and any required repairs or upgrades. The property is offered freehold and council tax is Band D.
A rare combination of privacy, character and extensive grounds right in Helmshore, this home will especially appeal to those who prioritise land, outdoor interest and single‑level living. Viewing is essential to appreciate the plot, setting and internal proportions — viewings by appointment only.
