About this home

Substantial Six Bedroom Mews House | Approximately 4,000 Sq Ft | Far-Reaching Lancashire Countryside Views | Exceptional Potential Occupying an elevated and particularly private position surrounded by open countryside, Owl Barn is an impressive six bedroom mews house offering approximately 4,000 sq ft of accommodation and some truly remarkable views across the Lancashire countryside. The property offers an exceptional amount of space, an unusual and flexible layout and a setting that is difficult to replicate. While the house now requires improvement and modernisation, it represents a rare opportunity for someone looking to take on a substantial project and create a very special home. The ground floor offers an impressive amount of living space, with a large open plan lounge providing a substantial area for relaxing and entertaining. There is also a separate formal reception room, offering an alternative living space and the opportunity to enjoy the property's wonderful outlook. The large kitchen features a central island and offers considerable scope to create an impressive family and entertaining space. A separate utility room and WC complete the ground floor accommodation. The first floor is particularly generous, with five large bedrooms arranged around the landing. Two of the bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite facilities, with a further family bathroom serving the remaining accommodation. A second staircase leads to the top floor, where a sixth bedroom provides yet more flexibility. This could make an excellent teenager's room, home office, hobby room or private retreat away from the main living accommodation. One of the property's greatest assets is undoubtedly its setting. The house enjoys far-reaching views across open Lancashire countryside, providing a wonderful sense of space and rural surroundings. Situated along a private road serving a small hamlet of properties, the location offers a level of peace and privacy that is increasingly difficult to find. Despite its rural position, Owl Barn remains within reach of local amenities, with Smithills and the wider Bolton area providing access to shops, schools and everyday facilities. Bolton School and other well-regarded local schools are also within reach, while the surrounding road network provides connections towards Bolton, Manchester and beyond. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the surrounding countryside offers excellent opportunities for walking, rambling and exploring, with the area particularly popular with walkers who appreciate the rural landscape and open views. This is a property with genuine scale, an extraordinary amount of accommodation and a setting that really does set it apart. For buyers prepared to undertake a programme of renovation and improvement, Owl Barn offers an exciting opportunity to create a substantial countryside home in a truly distinctive location.
