Description
This is an EXCITING and RARE opportunity to purchase a fully rebuilt and renovated Grade 2 listed, 200 year old barn conversion in the heart of Rivington. The Barn, Moses Cocker Farm sits in arguably ONE OF THE BEST SPOTS at the top of Sheephouse Lane with truly spectacular panoramic views across towards Blackrod then back at the whole of Rivington and surrounding areas. On a good clear day you can also see the sea in the distance. This is an excellent property for the outdoors type client given the outstanding countryside at your doorstep. Internally the property has been finished to an exceptionally high standard throughout and benefits from modern cavity insulation, air dried oak cladding and original stone walls. The full rebuild has been fully documented with photos which can be viewed. The Barn was also recently on Sky TV being the main residence for the characters in the hit series The Rising. The accommodation spans over 3500 square feet of contemporary space which in brief comprises of amazing entrance hallway with large feature windows, to the left is an excellent guest area comprising of double bedroom, modern four-piece family bathroom, utility / storeroom and then access into the large garage. In the main / formal part of the barn there is an expansive open plan area which houses the modern kitchen and island, dining area and formal lounge with feature media wall and under floor heating. The open plan area benefits from large windows taking in the scenery and a log burner. Off the lounge is a separate utility room and then a great sized study / home office. Up on the first floor the large landing area opens to give access to a master bedroom with large dressing room and modern fitted en-suite. There are three more double bedrooms on this floor along with an extra en-suite bathroom to bedroom two and a modern fitted family bathroom. The use of original stonework, oak beams and large windows taking in the outstanding views is simply amazing, they all bring out the character and charm of this impressive period building. Although the barn is located within a rural setting, it still offers excellent access into Horwich and Adlington with all their amenities, schools and public transport links. The M61 motorway network is approximately 15 minutes' drive away giving access to a wider network of motorways. Internal inspection is highly recommended to fully appreciate the outstanding finish, size and truly breath-taking views. Council tax band G, the property is leasehold.
