Nestled along picturesque Roots Lane, this wonderful barn conversion seamlessly blends countryside tranquility with modern convenience. Commuters will appreciate the short drive to Cottam, Broughton, Kirkham, and the nearby motorway junction. Plus, the delightful Roots Café is just a short stroll away.
This detached brick-built gem sits on a generous plot, complete with its statement sweeping driveway providing ample parking and its expansive gardens.
Families will love the proximity to Catforth's primary school and the excellent high schools. The property sits within the Broughton High School catchment area and is also within close proximity to the renowned Kirkham Grammar School.
Step into the property through the original double-height barn doors to be met by the welcoming reception hall. The soaring galleried landing adds drama, while underfloor heating and engineered wood flooring create a cosy ambiance.
The heart of this home is the dining kitchen, where rustic charm meets modern functionality. Reclaimed wooden beams and exposed brickwork bring the property back to its agricultural roots. Solid wood work surfaces complement a range of kitchen units, and integrated appliances, including a Neff hide-and-slide oven, await culinary adventures. The impressive island is perfect for chatting whilst cooking. The brick feature fireplace also within this room features a gas fire which is perfect for those cold winter days, and it's heat will warm the entire home if needed. For the warmer days the wonderful bifold doors open out onto the expansive decked area. Covered by a charming pergola, this space invites you to unwind, sip your morning coffee, and take in the views of the lush gardens and grounds. It's an entertainer's dream!
The utility room/boot room is practical and functional, featuring a sink and a designated spot for a washing machine. Plus, the current pantry setup ensures easy organization. This is an extremely practical room and exactly what every family needs.
The ground floor bedroom offers versatility, whether used as a reception room or a cozy retreat, it adapts to your lifestyle. And with a private external door, there's potential to create a self-contained annex—perfect for guests or extended family (subject to necessary approvals).
The lounge is also to the ground floor of the property and it boasts an electric fireplace crafted from reclaimed wood beams and bricks sourced from the original farm. Natural light floods the room from two windows keeping it a lovely light room, as well as cosy.
The room currently used as a gym is a blank canvas awaiting your vision. Whether a home office, gym, or hobby space, it's ready for whatever purpose you require. And yes, the sauna (not included in the sale but can be purchased by separate negotiation) adds a touch of luxury.
The ground floor shower room boasts â€jack and jill" doors, providing seamless access from both the gym and the hallway—a thoughtful design for everyday living.
There is also a study/laundry room which is equipped with laundry facilities, making chores a breeze. Within this room you will also find the hydraulic passenger lift, a rare find! Installed and fully maintained and serviced by Motion Elevators it really is accessibility meets elegance.
The staircase and landing really are a showstopper of the property. Its galleried landing has exposed beams which frame the views over the reception hallway beatifully, adding to the overall special feel of the property.
To the first floor we find the master bedroom suite, featuring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and a dormer extension. Wake up to stunning vistas across fields, the canal, and Beacon Fell. A walk-in dressing room and ensuite wet room (complete with underfloor heating) add luxury and comfort to this unique suite.
The second bedroom boasts a vaulted ceiling, original beams, and a fitted raised bed with bespoke wardrobes. A large Velux window invites natural light and scenic views and the room is filled with character just like the rest of this property.
The third bedroom continues the character theme, with exposed beams and a dormer extension. Enjoy the panorama of fields and the canal toward Beacon Fell from here as well.
The family bathroom is also found on the first floor featuring a spa-style bath, w/c, sink, and convenient built-in storage.
This property's outdoor setting and space is fantastic, with a large rear garden and views of fields beyond it is a wonderful setting. The property also benefits from a large gated driveway with parking for 5 cars meaning there's plenty of space for family and visitors.
This is a truly unique property set in a wonderful rural location, but only a short drive from local amenities and transport links, it is the best of both worlds and is not to be missed!
