Historic barn conversion with double garage and stables providing an astonishing 4274 SQ.FT.
Regan & Hallworth proudly presents this substantial barn conversion in a prime location adjacent to the historic Cranes Hall, originally occupied by the 3rd Earl of Lathom. The building, believed to date back to the 17th century, boasts a sturdy construction of brick and stone, crowned by a restored weather vane atop its stone slate roof.
Inside, the property has a modern layout and aesthetic that will undoubtedly appeal to today’s discerning buyers with spacious interiors featuring high ceilings and character features. Abundant large windows flood the accommodation with natural light, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The layout spans three floors with much of the accommodation on the first two floors making it highly practical for families. The top floor features a unique and versatile open-plan design.
Nestled along one of the region’s most exclusive lanes, which is home to some of the area’s most prestigious private residences, the barn enjoys total privacy. Its long private driveway leads to the property, and the gardens and grounds extend to 0.54 acres. These outdoor spaces are not overlooked and offer picturesque countryside views both to the front and rear. Within the grounds, you’ll find a large double garage attached to the front of the barn. A gated private courtyard at the rear leads to the original stables for the hall. These stables exude character and untapped potential. With a generous footprint and a loft room, they offer an exciting opportunity for development, potentially providing approximately 700 square feet of additional living or annex space.
Whilst the decor could benefit from some modernisation, it has been immaculately maintained and is family-ready. Furthermore, there is scope for further extension or redevelopment should a buyer desire.
In summary, this is a home of true distinction that truly must be seen to be fully appreciated.
