SELLER INSIGHT

This magnificent, three storey, spacious family home stands majestically in a setting along a quiet lane. Surrounded by fabulous open countryside in a location on the Lancashire/Yorkshire border and minutes from the thriving town of Barnoldswick.

It is so easy to understand how its present owner fell in love with this property. Desiring a large family home, he moved to live here in 2008. The house, of mock tudor design, had been built in 1908 and cherished throughout its history. However, its previous owner had been a builder who had carefully and meticulously renovated and enhanced the property into this brilliant family home, and one which embraces the luxuries and comforts of a modern day lifestyle, whilst respecting its unique history. High ceilings combined with large amounts of glazing present an atmosphere of space and brightness. First and foremost, this is indeed a brilliant family home with a generous amount of versatile accommodation, with each room having its own individual personality. The cosy snug offers a quiet retreat, whilst the elegant dining room can be utilised for formal occasions. The main hub of family life is the extensive, cleverly zoned, kitchen/dining/living area. This brilliant space has doors opening out onto decking and on into the garden and offers the very best for indoor/outdoor living. It is also the ideal area for sociable gatherings of friends and family, especially at Christmas. In addition, the area above the large garage offers extra space, not least of which is a dedicated area for home working.

The house is surrounded by its easy to maintain but large, private, garden adjacent to the open countryside. It is certainly a garden in which to enjoy relaxed dining and most importantly one to enjoy quiet times enjoying the surrounding sights and sounds, and also a garden to relish its fabulous outlook, or watch the seasons gently unfold.

It is just a fifteen minute walk into the vibrant market town of Barnoldswick which contains a wealth of outstanding amenities, including individual shops such a s butchers, artisan bakers and greengrocers. Education amenities, sport and leisure opportunities are numerous and, with such a local active community, there are many sociable and interesting events taking place in the town throughout the year. Being in such a fabulous area, walking and cycling are popular activities.

The owner wishes much happiness to new owners of the house and will take so many happy memories of life here, not least of which are those of his son growing from toddler into a young adult and sharing his enjoyment of life here and the freedom offered. *
