Bankside Hall, Bankside Lane, Bacup is an outstanding stone-built period residence, set in an elevated and peaceful position above the Victorian market town of Bacup. This distinguished four-bedroom semi-detached home blends architectural heritage with refined modern living, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a property of genuine character and quality.

Set back from the road and approached via a sweeping private driveway shared with just two other properties, Bankside Hall immediately impresses with its elegant stone façade, mature surroundings and sense of privacy. Constructed from locally quarried stone, the exterior provides a fitting introduction to the grandeur within.

The ornate front door opens into a breathtaking entrance hall featuring mosaic tiled flooring, original detailing and a magnificent cast-iron sweeping staircase illuminated by a light well above. A striking guest cloakroom, finished in a bold black and gold design, sits just off the hallway.

The principal living room occupies the former ballroom and extends to approximately 450 sq ft, with a large bay window, underfloor heating, herringbone hardwood flooring and intricate cornicing. A bespoke fireplace engraved with Bankside Hall forms a focal point, making this an exceptional space for entertaining and family living. Adjacent is a formal dining room of impressive proportions, featuring decorative plasterwork, a period fireplace and ample space for a large dining table.

The bespoke kitchen has been commissioned by the current owners to an exceptional standard, featuring handcrafted cabinetry, granite work surfaces, premium integrated appliances, underfloor heating, peninsula breakfast bar and LED mood lighting-perfectly balancing contemporary luxury with period charm.

Original features including panelled doors, deep skirting boards and ornate plasterwork have been carefully preserved throughout, maintaining the home’s historic integrity.

The first floor offers two substantial double bedrooms, a third well-proportioned bedroom and a stylish four-piece family bathroom. The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, extending to approximately 300 sq ft, with high ceilings and a bespoke mezzanine level incorporating storage, office space and an elevated sleeping area. The top floor reveals a fourth bedroom with en-suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe, ideal for guests or independent living.

Externally, the property enjoys landscaped gardens to the front and side with open countryside views, a generous driveway providing ample off-road parking, and access to a double garage. Planning permission is in place to modernise the garage and create a potential outbuilding or home gym.
