FOR SALE – Detached Farmhouse with 15 Acres, Ealees, Littleborough

A rare opportunity to purchase an exceptional detached farmhouse set within approximately 15 acres in the picturesque Ealees valley, only a short walk from Hollingworth Lake and conveniently close to Littleborough town centre with its mainline train station, shops, cafés and schools.

The land includes around five acres of mature woodland and ten acres of well-fenced grazing, all complemented by a mile-long private off-road track ideal for riding, track or strip grazing, cycling and walking. The property also features an impressive American barn with stabling and agricultural facilities, offering excellent scope for an education or therapeutic business (subject to consents). A charming stone stable block containing five stables benefits from planning permission for a two-bedroom bungalow, adding significant development potential. Additional outbuildings and field shelters provide further flexibility for animals, storage or hobby use.

Set within the tranquil environment of Hollingworth Lake Country Park, the grounds also include a peaceful meditation hut positioned beside natural waterfalls and streams. The substantial five-bedroom farmhouse offers highly versatile accommodation, with three kitchens and four bathrooms arranged so the house can be used as three separate living areas or as one spacious family home—perfect for multi-generational living or holiday let income. The property enjoys an attractive one-acre garden with orchard and the added advantage of its own private spring water supply.

This is an outstanding lifestyle property offering excellent potential for equestrian, agricultural, residential or business use. Early viewing is strongly recommended.

Our vendor may also consider splitting the title - please enquire for more details.
