This impressive eight-bedroom detached family home, situated in a highly sought-after area of Blackburn, is a rare gem that exudes timeless charm and character. Steeped in decades of history, the property showcases stunning original features, including intricate coving, beautifully crafted stained glass windows, and striking wooden beams. A truly unique highlight is the presence of original servants' bells, still intact in some rooms, alongside charming gas fireplaces and expansive bay windows that flood the rooms with natural light.
Nestled on an enviable plot, the home offers lush gardens adorned with mature shrubs for added privacy, along with a double garage and a driveway that provides secure off-road parking. The property welcomes you with a grand entrance hall leading to a cosy living room, an elegant dining room with period features, and a well-appointed kitchen. A convenient WC is also located on the ground floor. The first floor houses four spacious double bedrooms, a three-piece bathroom suite, and a separate WC. Ascending to the second floor, you'll find four additional bedrooms, which historically served as the servants' quarters.
This home is rich in history and brimming with potential, awaiting a family who will appreciate its character and original features while breathing new life into its enchanting spaces. It’s a true forever home, ready to create new memories for generations to come.
This home is just a stones throw away from a wide range of local amenities, including convenience stores, shops, cafes, restaurants, a doctor’s surgery, hairdressers, and more. Families will value the close proximity to top-rated schools, such as Witton Park High School, Tauheedul Islam Girls' High School, and The Olive School. Commuters will benefit from excellent transport links to Blackburn Town Centre, Accrington, and Preston, making this location perfect for convenience and connectivity.
This property offers a blend of elegance and functionality, starting with a charming porch that welcomes you into a grand entrance hall. The hall is highlighted by a striking feature gas fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, and it leads seamlessly into both the living room and hallway. A beautiful staircase ascends to the first-floor landing, adding to the home's stately feel.
The hallway itself offers access to several key rooms, including a convenient downstairs WC, a well-appointed fitted kitchen, and an impressive dining room. The kitchen is spacious and practical, with a door leading to the double garage, which leads out to the separate rear garden.
The real showstopper is the stunning dining room, which exudes character and sophistication. It boasts a statement fireplace that serves as the room's focal point, a gorgeous bay window flooding the space with natural light, and beautifully preserved original period features. The most remarkable piece is the set of unique double doors adorned with exquisite stained glass details, offering access to the living room and further enhancing the home's timeless charm.
As you ascend the elegant staircase from the entrance hall to the spacious first-floor landing, you're immediately struck by the stunning arched window. This architectural feature bathes the landing in an abundance of natural light, creating a bright and airy atmosphere.
The first floor boasts four generously sized double bedrooms, each with its own unique character and charm. These rooms provide plenty of storage, thanks to the built-in wardrobes, making them as practical as they are inviting. Additionally, this floor offers a well-appointed three-piece bathroom suite, along with a separate WC.
Continuing up another flight of stairs from the landing, you reach the second floor, where you're greeted by an additional four good-sized bedrooms. These upper-level rooms provide versatility and comfort, perfect for accommodating guests, family members, or even transforming one into a home office or creative space. This second-floor retreat feels like a private haven within the home, completing the spacious and thoughtfully designed layout.
Externally, the front of the property is secured by gated access and beautifully enhanced by lush lawns and mature shrubs, offering both charm and privacy. The gardens extend around to the side, where you'll find a driveway providing convenient off-road parking. At the rear, there's a cosy garden space accompanied by an outhouse, ideal for storing gardening tools and equipment.
