Description

Have you ever wanted to create your dream home?

Reside Estate Agents are delighted to bring to market, this rare opportunity to purchase a DETACHED FARMHOUSE & APPROX. FOUR ACRES OF LAND* in the heart of the Milnrow countryside.

Set in a semi-rural location with panoramic and breath-taking views across the valley, the character property is accessed via a private lane. The barn itself would require a full-renovation throughout and boasts fantastic potential for any discerning buyer! There has previously been planning permission granted (now lapsed) for the property.

In addition to the stone barn, there are APPROX. FOUR ACRES OF LAND* to be enjoyed by the purchaser. They offer a mixture of picturesque views across the valley & beyond, grazing land, six stables, secure yard and a space for a horse arena. The property is conveniently positioned for Milnrow village amenities, shops, good local schools and transport links.

Viewings are to be done by appointment only and all visits must be accompanied. Call today to book!

*please note the measurement of the land is not exact and all potential buyers should instruct a solicitor to investigate all legal matters relating to the property (e.g. title, planning permission etc) as these are specialist matters

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing is approximate, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
