Croichley Fold, Bury, BL8 4JE

The Old Barn is a beautifully presented and deceptively spacious, stone-built three-bedroom semi-detached cottage, which is a part of a barn conversion in 1996 and is set within idyllic rural surroundings down a picturesque lane in Hawkshaw village. The property affords a rare balance of countryside tranquillity with stunning farmland views and everyday convenience, being within easy walking distance of highly regarded primary and secondary schools, local shops, traditional public houses and restaurants, while excellent motorway connections are accessible within a short drive. Having been meticulously renovated in recent years, the home offers light-filled, generously proportioned accommodation finished to an exacting contemporary standard, whilst retaining a wealth of original character. Exposed ceiling beams and a beautiful stone fireplace with log burning stove sit harmoniously alongside modern fittings, creating an elegant yet welcoming living environment. The thoughtfully configured accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch, a large lounge with windows front and side aspect, a well-appointed breakfast kitchen, and open plan spacious dining area and a very handy utility room, WC and cloakroom offering flexibility for modern family living. To the first floor are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a superb principal suite with en-suite shower room, complemented by a striking three-piece family bathroom of impressive scale and finish. Externally, the property is equally impressive. Extensive gardens create a superb outdoor lifestyle setting, including a generous front garden with decked patio area, a further side patio ideal for private entertaining, the substantial lawned garden perfectly suited for family enjoyment, children’s play, or potential use as a micro-farm or allotment. the gravelled driveway provides ample parking for up to six/seven vehicles leading to a detahced stone built double garage. Further benefits include LPG gas-central heating, water treatment plant and UPVC double glazing. Positioned at the bottom of Croichley Fold lane with stunning views of pasture land and beyond, the property enjoys immediate access to scenic woodland walks and protected countryside. A home of notable charm, character and distinction, early viewing is highly recommended and strictly by appointment via our Ramsbottom office.
