Ben Rose Estate Agents are pleased to present to market this truly exquisite, four-bedroom detached stone residence, dating back to the 17th century and thoughtfully extended in 2016. Nestled in a serene countryside setting, this unique family home seamlessly blends period charm with contemporary luxury. Set within beautifully landscaped gardens and benefitting from an additional circa 3-acre plot of land located directly across from the property, this is a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional home with unmatched versatility. The land lies just over the quiet country lane to the front, offering a wealth of potential for equestrian use or recreational space. Positioned on the rural outskirts of Chorley, this idyllic location provides easy access to a range of amenities. Chorley train station is within easy reach, offering direct routes to Manchester, Preston and beyond, while the M6, M61 and M65 motorway links are just a short drive away. The area also boasts excellent local schools, shops and eateries, along with nearby attractions such as Astley Hall, Rivington Pike and several prestigious golf courses.

Stepping inside, you’re welcomed through a characterful vestibule with a vaulted ceiling that leads into the grand main reception hall. Here, a stunning wooden staircase with open risers, glass balustrade and an exposed stone wall takes centre stage. To the right lies the formal lounge, complete with a bow window offering views over the peaceful side gardens and ornamental pond. Continue along the hall to discover the inviting family room, bathed in natural light from its dual aspect windows and centred around a charming stone fireplace with a log-burning stove. The adjacent sitting room also features a multi-fuel burner and opens into the expansive kitchen/breakfast room – a true showstopper with sweeping views across the front fields and land. This space is beautifully appointed with integrated appliances, including a built-in coffee machine, microwave and wine coolers, along with a sizeable central island with breakfast bar. Flowing seamlessly into the dining room through an open-plan design, bi-folding doors open the space directly onto the rear garden. Off the dining room lies a generous games room, which provides access to a private study and stylish shower room. A staircase from the games room leads up to bedroom four, making it an ideal self-contained annex for multi-generational living or guests.

Upstairs, a split staircase leads to the main landing and bedroom two. The luxurious master suite is a true retreat, enjoying breathtaking views and access to an open balcony that overlooks the rear gardens – perfect for peaceful mornings or evening relaxation. Bedrooms two and three are both well-proportioned and benefit from their own en-suite shower rooms, along with beautiful outlooks across the countryside. The family bathroom completes the first floor and has been finished to a luxurious standard, boasting a freestanding bath, a double walk-in shower, and elegant tilework that complements the home’s blend of traditional and contemporary styles.

Externally, the home is accessed via a secure, fob-controlled gate that opens to a large driveway with ample parking for multiple vehicles. The detached double garage includes a WC and boiler room, with a purpose-built dog run discreetly tucked behind. To the rear, the expansive and private gardens are truly breathtaking. A winding path meanders around a manicured lawn and mature trees, leading to various seating areas and a peaceful pond, creating an ideal space for entertaining or simply enjoying the outdoors. The home also benefits from two substantial outbuildings – the first, currently used as a hot tub house, includes dual bi-folding doors, a WC, and a covered bar/seating area that opens onto the garden. The second, measuring approximately 22m in width, offers endless possibilities and was previously used as a workshop – perfect for conversion into stables, a gym, or studio space.

With the added advantage of the circa 3-acre field to the front, this exceptional home combines timeless character, flexible living space and land ownership in a truly unbeatable location.
