"A distinctive Grade II listed farmhouse dating back to at least 1672, with remarkable period features, a private walled garden and views towards the Bowland Fells"
The Property
The Farmhouse is a wonderfully individual Grade II listed home, rich in history and character and dating back to at least 1672. Occupying an attractive courtyard setting in the heart of Halton, the property combines generous and versatile accommodation with a remarkable collection of original features.
At the heart of the home is the farmhouse kitchen, where a restored 17th-century fireplace forms a striking focal point. Complete with a Hunter multifuel stove, the space retains the warmth and character expected of a house of this age while providing a welcoming setting for everyday life.
The accommodation includes three versatile reception rooms, offering flexibility for family living, entertaining or working from home. Exposed beams and trusses, wall panelling and stone mullioned windows are found throughout, each contributing to the distinctive character and sense of history that defines the house.
There are four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two en suite shower rooms. The generous layout provides flexibility for family life and guests, while the variety of living spaces allows the house to adapt easily to the needs of its next owners.
The Farmhouse is a home with a strong sense of place, where centuries of character sit alongside comfortable, practical accommodation in a well-connected village setting.
Externally
The property enjoys an enclosed and private walled garden, providing a peaceful space away from the courtyard. Mature planting and a productive orchard bring colour and interest throughout the seasons, while views extend towards Clougha and the Bowland Fells beyond.
The attractive courtyard setting provides parking for two cars, while a detached double garage benefits from power, light and water, offering further useful storage or workshop space.
The combination of a private garden, practical parking and far-reaching countryside views is a particularly appealing feature for a historic home positioned so conveniently within the village.
