Situated off Whalley Road within a picturesque cluster of stone-fronted cottages, this charming property boasts breathtaking views towards Stonyhurst College and Kemple End to the rear, along with a recently refurbished interior.

Internally, you are welcomed by an entrance vestibule with tile effect flooring, leading into a cosy yet spacious living room.

The principal bedroom, located at the front of the property, is a well-appointed retreat complete with a walk-in wardrobe, lovely views towards Painter Wood, and additional storage cleverly integrated over the stairs.

The three-piece house bathroom features a panelled ‘P’-shaped bath with an overhead shower, a sleek vanity wash basin, and a dual-flush WC, all finished to a high standard.

The rear garden is a true highlight of the property, thoughtfully landscaped and extended to create a multi-level outdoor haven.
