5 bed property for sale

St. Barnabas Drive, Littleborough OL15

A beautifully imposing Edwardian detached residence, magnificently set within its own grounds, and quite possibly being one of the finest homes within the area.

The Old Vicarage is nicely nestled at the end of St Barnabas Drive with meticulously prepared gardens, gated sweeping driveway and a 'tip of the hat' to some amazing views of the local and surrounding countryside.

This is undoubtedly a gorgeous family home, where perhaps anyone who has business in Manchester or indeed Leeds, can easily 'return home' to a place that sits within the countryside and yet boasts a positioning that enjoys a convenient connection to the highly desirable centre of Littleborough Village where boutique clothes and coffee shops await. The countryside is also quite literally on the doorstep making a quick escape into the hills very easy indeed, and if commuting is your thing, the train links from here are superb.

This enigmatic dwelling has a style and an elite quality that seems to lavishly exude from everywhere and it is clearly evident that every detail from 'décor' to 'flow' has been immensely and professionally considered.

A brief insight into this exceptional and individual home further includes:

Ground floor – As you enter the property the large vestibule with original doors and ornate windows instantly welcomes you. There is a traditional cloaks room to the side. The reception hall has a returning stair case with a spindled balustrade to the first floor gallery style landing. The receptions are perfectly designed and decorated to enhance a function for each room as each one echoes its own personality. The study is already set for business as you will see. The sitting room is somewhere to put your feet up, and enjoy the roaring fire. The day lounge is again a place where the family may gather to catch up after the evening meal, still enjoying the sumptuous theme and with perhaps a more modern flair. From this lounge is access into the sun room with bi-folding doors, which is perfect if you are entertaining or is just the best place for an early morning coffee. The breakfast kitchen which is accessed from the hall and the sun room, is beautifully fitted with a breath taking selection of wall and base units, in-built appliances and matching Corian work surfaces. From here is access into the Utility and Laundry Room and personal access into the large double garage. Within here is a separate gym and a separate w.c.

First floor – the spacious and light galleried landing leads very nicely into each of the five double bedrooms and the two family bathrooms. As with the ground floor every detail has certainly been brushed with a professional eye. The Master Bedroom has been tastefully fitted with an exceptional level of quality furniture with a window seat to the bay. Bedroom number two enjoys its own en-suite bathroom and the house bathroom comprises of a luxury four piece suite. The guest bathroom is slightly smaller and still enjoys a sumptuous three piece suite.

Externally – at the front is the gravelled sweeping driveway with electronic security gated entrance. The gardens are meticulous and range from the traditional lawn with mature shrubbery borders, to a Zen style area. There is composite decking just from the garden room that currently leads to the large hot tub.

Please note the property has solar panels and our client informs that there is a saving of approximately £2,500 per year.
