About this home
A Rare Rural Development Opportunity with Approximately 5.99 Acres Set in a desirable rural position less than five miles from town, this exceptional parcel of land presents a rare opportunity for those seeking to create their own countryside retreat. Offering approximately 5.99 acres of good-quality grassland, the property has considerable potential as a smallholding, equestrian property or private country home. The land already benefits from an established ménage, making it particularly appealing to equestrian buyers, while an existing former piggery building has planning consent for conversion into a generously proportioned three-bedroom bungalow. This provides an exciting opportunity to create a bespoke home in an attractive countryside setting. Further enhancing the property's potential, planning application reference 2018/0345 also includes consent for the creation of a new private driveway directly from Roundhill Road, offering the prospect of excellent privacy and independent access. The combination of acreage, existing facilities and residential development potential makes this a particularly versatile proposition, whether your ambition is to establish a smallholding, develop an equestrian base or simply enjoy a more peaceful rural lifestyle. The property is currently approached from the B6326 Roundhill Road via a short track shared with the neighbouring farmhouse. Despite its countryside setting, it remains conveniently positioned for the A680 Manchester Road and onward connections to theA56, M66 and M65 motorway networks. The commercial centres of Rawtenstall, Bury and Manchester lie to the south, while Burnley, Blackburn and Preston are readily accessible to the north. A selection of primary and secondary schools can also be found in the nearby communities of Helmshore and Haslingden. Opportunities combining this amount of land, equestrian potential and consent to create a new home are seldom available. Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the setting, space and possibilities this property has to offer.
