A property in Darwen is the perfect place to escape from the “hustle and bustle” of town life – and it could be yours.

The barn conversion, on Sniddle Hill Lane, is on the market for £1.5million.

Described as the “epitome of rural luxury”, the home is in a countryside area and boasts serene views of the Darwen countryside.

Situated on 27 acres of land, this property is said to offer the new owner “a unique opportunity to embrace countryside living at its finest”.

The house is rustic but also has modern elements, including a hot tub, which will suit the needs of a more contemporary buyer.

Ideal for entertaining, the home has two reception rooms, with exposed beams and vaulted ceilings.

The kitchen has been described as the “heart of the home”, equipped with an Aga, a central island and bespoke furnishings.

The sun room looks like an ideal place to relax in during the summer, with panoramic views of the garden.

The home has four bedrooms, with space for a fifth to be created.  The rooms are described as “generously proportioned” with plenty of space for family and guests.

With an en-suite, the master bedroom appears very spacious and even has a his and hers dressing room.

The “extensive grounds” include lush pastures and a working barn with stables, ideal for those who own horses.

Also on the grounds is an outbuilding which could be converted, subject to the necessary permissions.

A spokesperson for Bridgfords said: “The location provides a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of town life while still providing convenient access to amenities and transport links in the thriving centre of Darwen.

“Explore the nearby countryside trails, enjoy leisurely walks, or simply immerse yourself in the tranquillity of nature. With easy access to local schools, shops, and recreational facilities, this property offers the perfect balance of rural living and modern convenience.

“Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a prestigious barn conversion with extensive land in the scenic surroundings of Darwen.”
