This characterful five-bedroomed farmhouse is a rare find, having the advantage of being set within 19.43 acres (7.86 hectares) within a ring fence and various gateway access off Chapel Lane, with the added advantage of stables and former farm buildings. It offers the tremendous opportunity for potential purchasers to create a family home but with sufficient land to make it a smallholding, equestrian or amenity buyers’ dream.
Set in a semi-rural location just off Chapel Lane, this property is just a short drive to the main road network and motorway junctions of the M55 and the M6. The villages of Great Eccleston and Hambleton are located close by, and it’s just a stones throw away form the Cartford Inn in Little Eccleston.

Great Eccleston has a good range of amenities to include shops, public houses, schools, healthcare providers, along with places of worship. Senior schools can be found at Preesall, Garstang, Poulton and private schools slightly further away at Kirkham. Grammar school, AKS and Rossall all within a bus journey, making this an ideal rural but certainly not isolated property.

The farmhouse sits in a north-south elevation just set back from the road, having far-reaching views over the land and to the Bowland Fells.

The farmhouse has retained a wealth of character features such as exposed solid pitch pine floorboards, exposed beams, cast iron fireplaces and lovely pitch pine windows.

Internally, the farmhouse is accessed via a front entrance porch, which leads into the dining room/ breakfast room, has a wonderful former fire and range being the main focal point of the room, together with characterful built-in cupboards. Pitch pine window frame to the southern elevation and lovely original quarry tiles.

The kitchen is a compact kitchen with sink, contrasting worktop, plumbing for washing machine, LPG central heating boiler and cooker point.

The front lounge is a peaceful room with an insert fire and surround. Bay window to the front elevation. Pitch pine dado rail, skirting boards and exposed beams complement the character.

To the first floor can be found three good-sized bedrooms, a family bathroom suite with wonderful, characterful features such as freestanding bath, original WC. The stairs continue to the second floor, which provides two good-sized double bedrooms with built-in storage facilities.
