Property Description
Halsteads Barn is a captivating stone-built property nestled within the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Set in an elevated peaceful and secluded location, the barn offers a retreat from the bustle of everyday life, surrounded by the serene, unspoiled landscape.
Once a traditional barn, the structure has been thoughtfully extended over time, with all additions carefully designed to maintain a cohesive and traditional aesthetic. The interior of Halsteads Barn mirrors this commitment to style, with each room reflecting the same character and charm with classic design elements. Stone details, exposed beams, and warm, earthy tones are consistent throughout, creating a seamless blend of old and new that preserves the barn’s character while offering comfortable, inviting living spaces.
One of the key features of Halsteads Barn is its flexible layout. The property is designed in such a way that it can be easily adapted to function as two separate dwellings, offering a unique opportunity for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even rental income.
Adding to its charm, Halsteads Barn boasts an substantial garden providing an outdoor haven. The garden includes extensive lawn, vegetable and herb patches, fruit trees and bushes, a firepit with seating area, perfect for enjoying cool evenings under the stars, as well as a patio and summer room situated off the detached double garage. This summer room is an ideal spot to take in the breath-taking views of the surrounding landscape, including the renowned Yorkshire Three Peaks, which form a stunning backdrop to this exceptional property. It is also in a 'Dark Sky' area with no light pollution, perfect for star gazing.
The recent addition of the stone built double garage and summer room has provided a superb amount of storage, worthy of any car or motorbike collection; it also has the benefit of double electric roller doors.
