Description
Situated in the popular Tockholes Village, this charming stone-built rural home enjoys panoramic countryside views, generous accommodation and an enviable sense of peace and privacy.

The property enjoys privileged and far-reaching views to all sides, including views to the Fylde coast and beyond, with rolling fields, dry-stone walls and open Lancashire countryside creating a wonderfully scenic setting. Despite its rural location, the house provides a comfortable and spacious family home with a wealth of traditional character.
Internally, the ground floor offers an entrance porch leading into a generous kitchen/dining room, together with a sitting room, hall, spacious lounge and impressive games room. The lounge opens onto a balcony, providing an excellent vantage point from which to enjoy the surrounding landscape. There is also a useful utility room/WC.
To the first floor are three bedrooms, including a particularly generous principal bedroom, alongside a family bathroom and additional en-suite facilities.
Outside, the property is approached via a private gravelled driveway and sits within its own rural surroundings. The stone outbuilding provides excellent ancillary space, with a stable, workshop and tool store, offering potential for a variety of uses subject to any necessary consents. A unique position offers a stunning view from each room in the property.
The combination of period stone construction, spacious accommodation, unique location with extensive rural views and useful outbuildings makes High Barn a rare opportunity for those seeking a country lifestyle in a peaceful and picturesque setting.
