Gaulkthorn Farm Barn is an impressive and thoughtfully designed four-bedroom home, offering an exceptional standard of accommodation across three floors. Set within a quiet and private location, the property has been finished with a clear focus on quality, practicality and attention to detail throughout, with open countryside views enjoyed from the rear.

The entrance hallway immediately sets the tone, with Karndean flooring running through the hallway, kitchen and dining area, utility and WC, creating a smart and practical finish across the ground floor. A particularly impressive feature of the hallway is the bespoke built-in bar, complete with a wine cooler, wine rack and dedicated bar area, providing a stylish space for entertaining. Adding to the home's specification, all lighting throughout the property can be controlled conveniently via an app.

From the hallway, there is access to the stunning open-plan kitchen and dining area, centred around a bespoke handmade kitchen with oak cabinetry, granite worktops and a large island with Corian worktop. The specification is exceptional, with a Smeg integrated gas and electric range oven and hob, full-size Samsung fridge, dishwasher and Quooker Nordic tap providing hot, cold and sparkling water. Automatic lighting within the cupboards adds another thoughtful touch.

The hallway also provides access to the useful utility and WC, which includes a sink, washing machine, tumble dryer, full-size freezer and excellent storage.

One of the main features of the property is the superb lounge. Generously proportioned and filled with natural light, it provides a beautiful space for both relaxing and entertaining, with lovely open countryside views towards the rear. The real flame gas fire creates an impressive focal point and is operated by remote control, while the porcelain tiled flooring adds to the quality finish. A door opens directly onto the rear garden, making the most of the views and creating a lovely connection between the lounge and outdoor space.

The first floor provides three generous bedrooms, all offering excellent proportions, including the main bedroom with a separate shower and washroom, a second bedroom with an en suite shower room and a further bedroom alongside the family bathroom. The second floor is home to a particularly spacious fourth bedroom with its own en suite shower room, along with useful eaves storage. This room offers excellent flexibility and could also provide the potential to create a principal bedroom suite. All four bedrooms provide good-sized accommodation, making this a home that offers genuine space throughout.

Externally, there are two allocated parking spaces to the front and a further allocated space to the rear, along with visitor parking. The tiered rear garden features two separate patio areas, providing low-maintenance spaces for outdoor seating while making the most of the open countryside outlook. External power sockets are also provided, along with a useful outside tap to the front of the property.

From The Agent's Perspective:

Gaulkthorn Farm Barn is a property that stands out for its combination of quality, space and thoughtful design. The bespoke kitchen, built-in bar, app-controlled lighting and impressive lounge give the home a particularly high-quality feel, while all four bedrooms are generously sized and the three-storey layout offers excellent flexibility for family life.

The open countryside views from the rear are a real feature, particularly from the lounge and garden, while the private setting gives the property a sense of separation from the surrounding area. At the same time, it remains well placed for everyday amenities in Oswaldtwistle, with Blackburn and Preston both easily accessible. The nearby motorway network also provides convenient connections towards Manchester, making this a well connected home despite its quieter setting.

From the Client's Perspective:

A beautifully built house in a stunning rural location with first-class connectivity to major motorways.
