House For Sale £595,000
A beautiful, historic home in an enviable setting close to hoghton tower with 1 acre!
The Old Counting House is a beautiful, stone built dwelling situated in an idyllic hamlet in the heart of Hoghton Bottoms. Dating back to approximately 1750 and originally standing as a counting house for the mill, the property was rebuilt from ruin in local stone only 30 years ago by its current occupants and has been sympathetically restored throughout. With impressive views over undulating landscape (area of natural landcsape/green belt) towards Pleasington golf course and the river Darwen, the property although seemingly rural, is a quiet retreat only a short distance from civilisation. Within close proximity to Hoghton's local amenities, highly regarded schools and attractions such as Hoghton Tower, a popular historic landmark, this impressive home is the perfect up size for a growing family, or professionals looking for something that little bit special! Situated on a one acre plot, with steeped land and gardens, often inhabited by deer and pheasants, ample off road parking and footpath leading to the viaduct and river bed, this beautiful home comprises briefly;
A welcoming entrance hallway, housing a staircase to the first floor and doors leading to two generously proportioned reception rooms, the second of which leads through to a fitted kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with a range of traditionally styled, wood panelled units and allows access to a lower ground floor where you will find a large boot room with adjoining WC, cloaks store and generous home office. To the first floor, you will find a landing with doors leading to four bedrooms, a walk in wardrobe and a main bathroom. The largest bedroom has an adjoining room which has a pitched ceiling, Velux window and the plumbing in place for an en suite.
