The property comprises a traditional stone farmhouse with many original features including stone mullion window reveals, exposed beam ceilings, exposed stone walls and inglenooks with three reception rooms, kitchen, pantry and downstairs shower room plus three bedrooms to first floor and bathroom. An adjoining traditional stone barn which has great potential for re-use and if converted would provide significant additional accommodation, subject to planning permission.
The property enjoys a beautiful position on the periphery of the desirable villages of Wheelton and Brinscall on the cusp of the West Pennine moors, offering country walks and access to some of Lancashires most beautiful countryside - you would certainly not believe you are only a short drive away from the M61/M65 motorways and only approximately 4.5 miles from Chorley Town Centre with its array of amenities and well regarded schooling. Whilst Chorley has more than its fair share of excellent state secondary schools, the private schools of Oakhill, Westholme and Bolton are also within easy reach. This unique property is in a lovely semi rural location, but also close enough to both the M65 and the M61 motorways to make commuting easy. A short walk away is the popular 'The Dressers Arms' - perfect for a Sunday lunch or relaxing evening tipple. This truly amazing opportunity must be viewed to fully appreciate the potential and delightful setting. NO CHAIN.
