Chipping, PR3 2GD

The characterful appearance of the exterior is continued throughout the internal aesthetic of the property. Thought to date to 1648, and to have been connected to John Brabbins, Chipping's famous cloth-merchant. It is highly unusual for having preserved 17th century internal features including salt-cupboards and a linen closet. Entering into the vestibule through traditional internal door, there are exposed beams and a cast iron open fire with stone surround, with mullion windows to the front elevation. The inner hallway has stairs ascending to the first floor and access to the rear, downstairs W.C comprising two piece and modest adjacent utility space. The dining kitchen is an inviting space which flows well into the additional reception room. The kitchen itself has a range of fitted units, integrated appliances including oven, hob, fridge freezer, microwave and dishwasher, as well as good space for dining table and attractive side views. On the first floor there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, two with built-in storage, as well as the separate bathroom comprising three piece suite. The additional staircase ascends to a useful attic space. Externally the property is garden fronted with pleasant arrangement walkway and lawned garden with stone wall border. Chipping Village is known to be at least 1,000 years old and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. It lies on the south-western edge of the ancient Forest of Bowland abutting the civil parish of Bowland-with-Leagram. The village has a vibrant community and benefits from a wealth of amenities and activities such as village shops, church and primary schools.
