Hidden away, just off Bacup Road, across the Irwell, in Cloughfold on the edge of the countryside and just 1 mile from Rawtenstall's vibrant town centre, this is a fabulous, modern detached family home, set in 1 acre gardens, with the strong prospect to further develop (subject. to PP/ permitted development). Accessed via a long, gated driveway, the main residence lies in one acre of manicured land & gardens on level plot, next to woodland.

Entering the main residence, follow the neatly tarmacked driveway & past a timber stables where parking for numerous cars can be found. This attractive stone property sits in the centre of the plot with a large, lawn gardens on three sides plus an enclosed stone patio to the rear. This property has been cleverly divided with a continuous slate roof creating a covered walkway between the main family home and a large en-suite bedroom, with pitched ceilings, that could easily be transformed to created separate annexe living, ideally for multi-generational families, or a multitude of uses.

Whilst the main residence can be accessed via French doors off the lounge, if you proceed through the central covered walkway, you can enter the annexe, of the family home and into a spacious entrance hallway, with doors to both reception rooms, the kitchen two of the double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The lounge is a large & stylish 275sqft family room, with a rear window, central fire and French doors onto the front gardens. An open internal archway leads into the 90sqft dining room with front window and door back into the hallway.

The kitchen features windows at each end with a central breakfast island and a collection of fitted units across three walls, with integrated appliances. A door leads into a utility room with laundry appliances, a second sink and a door into the south-facing patio and lawn gardens to the side.

Bedroom one is a large 200sqft double bedroom with windows at each end, whilst bedroom two is a second well-apportioned double bedroom at around 115sqft with front aspects. The stylish four-piece family bathroom features both a bath and a large walk-in shower, plus W.C, wash hand basin and at over 90sqft, enjoys dressing space and a frosted front window. Moving into the annexe, there is a hallway and then the largest bedroom, which at 215sqft with vaulted ceilings, a wall of fitted wardrobe storage and could easily function as a studio, potentially with a mezzanine bed deck and kitchenette. The large, ensuite bathroom is around 100sqft and features both a bath and large shower, W.C. wash hand basin and a frosted front window.

This property features two patios at the rear, with attractive stone walls. The central patio is a mix of stone flags with pebbled boarders, whilst the far patio is stone flagged and leads onto the large lawn garden. As you enter the property there is a characterful wooden gate and tarmacked driveway with landscaping on each side and two stables with windows each measuring 11'6 x 11'6, or 3.5m x 3.5m (130sqft/12.25m2).
