The property sits within the Broughton High School catchment area and is also within close proximity to the renowned Kirkham Grammar School.
Step into the property through the original double-height barn doors to be met by the welcoming reception hall. The soaring galleried landing adds drama, while underfloor heating and rich engineered wood flooring create a cosy ambiance. The heart of this home is the dining kitchen, where rustic charm meets modern functionality. Reclaimed wooden beams and exposed brickwork bring the property back to its agricultural roots. Solid wood work surfaces complement a range of kitchen units, and integrated appliances—including a Neff hide-and-slide oven—await culinary adventures. The impressive island is perfect for chatting whilst cooking. The brick feature fireplace also within this room features a gas fire which is perfect for those cold winter days, and it’s heat will warm the entire home if needed.
For the warmer days the wonderful bifold doors open out onto the expansive decked area. Covered by a charming pergola, this space invites you to unwind, sip your morning coffee, and take in the views of the lush gardens and grounds. It’s an entertainer’s dream!The utility room/boot room is practical and functional, featuring a sink and a designated spot for a washing machine.

The ground floor bedroom offers versatility. Whether used as a reception room or a cozy retreat, it adapts to your lifestyle. And with a private external door, there’s potential to create a self-contained annex—perfect for guests or extended family (subject to necessary approvals). The lounge is also to the ground floor of the property and it boasts an electric fireplace crafted from reclaimed wood beams and bricks sourced from the original farm. Natural light floods the room from two windows keeping it a lovely light room, as well as cosy. The playroom is a blank canvas awaiting your vision. Whether a home office, gym, or hobby space, it’s ready for whatever purpose you require. And yes, the sauna (not included in the sale but can be purchased by separate negotiation) adds a touch of luxury.
