DOUBLE-FRONTED STONE FAMILY HOME OF STYLE AND CHARACTER. Situated at the head of a desirable cul-de-sac approached from Helmshore Road in the popular Flax Moss area is this LARGE, VICTORIAN END TERRACED RESIDENCE WITH A PRIVATE 'WRAP AROUND' GARDEN AND DETACHED GARAGE.
Conveniently placed midway between Helmshore and Haslingden amenities, close to the Activity Sports Centre, the house is also within easy reach of the A56 (M) and onward access to the motorway network, M66 for M60 South and M65 for M6 North. Popular local schools including Helmshore and St.Veronica's R.C. Primaries together with Haslingden High & Six Form are all within a comfortable walking distance.
Preserving many original features thoughtfully blended with quality modern fittings, the deceiving layout is entered by a central front door retaining the etched window overlight of ' Fern Lea'. A formal reception hall complete with an oak-turned spindle staircase and solid wood floor guides you to both front-facing reception rooms. The main lounge enjoys a matching solid wood floor and a splendid stone fire surround housing a multi-fuel fire. Glazed double doors provide access to the rear conservatory with wood grain PVCu windows, a clear glazed roof and French doors to the private side & rear gardens.
On the opposing side of the hall is a versatile, front living/sitting or dining room. A focal point fireplace with over mirror is situated to this room and open access into the kitchen. Extensively fitted with light oak finished units, there is an everyday dining or breakfast area to the side and a separate combined utility room / W.C. at the rear.
Rising to the first floor a spacious, square landing leads to all three double bedrooms and the superb four-piece bathroom. The master bedroom features a pine fireplace with marble inset and a fitted living flame gas fire. The luxury bathroom benefits from a free-standing, claw foot bath with LED lighting surround together with a separate quadrant shower enclosure served by an electric shower unit.
Fronted by a mature planted wide garden, there is a gravel-laid side area and double gates to the detached garage. Secluded and not overlooked, the private enclosed rear garden is a fusion of paved and planted areas complete with gated access to an additional hardstanding for parking.
