House For Sale £795,000
Located beyond the outer reaches of the urban sprawl and well within the stunning rural landscape that surrounds the Cliviger Valley on the Northside of this historic Long Causeway and enveloped by upland pasture fields for the most part. Part of a small pocket of properties locally known as ‘Lower Causeway Side’, although somewhat remote in its appeal, the property is within easy reach of shopping amenities both towards the town of Burnley and further afield Hebden Bridge, with welcoming hostelries such as the Kettledrum nearby.
A unique opportunity to acquire this stunning stone built property most likely dating back to the early 19thCentury and originally comprising two former cottages for workers for the pottery works nearby and an attached Shippon. The properties now form a single farmhouse dwelling which has undergone a labour of love to the credit of the existing vendors, sympathetically retaining the charm and character such a property deserves, with the modern comforts you would expect in a property of such stature. There is a meticulous attention to detail which can only be appreciated by an internal inspection, where quality materials have been sourced or reclaimed for use throughout generous sized reception spaces and four attractively proportioned bedrooms. A master suite boasts a stunning dual-aspect over the surrounding countryside, with a modern ensuite and separate dressing room with fitted robes. Mature, carefully landscaped gardens envelop the property and soften the impressive stone-building with lawned gardens screened by mature tress and bushes and timber fencing. There is private parking and further gated access at the rear to a substantial detached garage. Ample stone paved patio areas from the orangery provide space for alfresco evenings, again within sympathetically landscaped gardens, whilst an area of pasture land beyond at the rear totally approximately one-acre can also be accessed separately from the Long Causeway. An early appointment to view is highly recommended.
