An incredible period three-bedroom semi-detached home, rich in original features and brimming with potential.

Homes like Stonehaven are rarely built today. Constructed with striking stone masonry, the property showcases beautiful craftsmanship throughout — from its impressive stone elevations and mullioned windows to the intricate stone detailing that defines its character and presence.

Internally, the home offers wonderfully proportioned living spaces that perfectly reflect its period origins. Two large reception rooms provide ideal spaces for both relaxing and entertaining, each enhanced by stunning bay windows that fill the rooms with natural light.

To the rear of the property is a generous kitchen and dining area, complemented by a charming morning nook and a traditional pantry complete with a cold store — features that add both practicality and nostalgic character to the home.

Externally, Stonehaven continues to impress. A substantial double-length garage provides excellent storage or workshop potential, with a useful potting area positioned behind for gardening enthusiasts.

The gardens to both the front and rear are beautifully established and enjoy truly spectacular views. To the rear, uninterrupted outlooks stretch towards the iconic Pendle Hill, while the front garden benefits from elevated views across Burnley.

Positioned in the highly sought-after village of Fence, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine character, offering both immediate charm and exciting potential for the future.

Stonehaven represents a fantastic chance to secure a truly special property in one of the area's most desirable locations.

We enter the property through the original solid wood front door, complete with two sidelights featuring beautiful wrought-iron detailing within the glazed units, along with a leaded glazed panel above the door. This immediately sets the tone for the character and craftsmanship found throughout the home.

Stepping inside, we arrive in the welcoming entrance hallway. The hallway features a UPVC double-glazed leaded window, a central heating radiator, and a staircase rising to the first floor. From here there is access to both reception rooms, the kitchen diner, and a downstairs WC. Decorative coving adds further period charm to the space.

Reception room one sits to the front of the property and benefits from a large UPVC double-glazed bay window offering fantastic elevated views across Burnley. The room features two central heating radiators, decorative coving, and a beautiful original stone fireplace with a stone hearth, currently fitted with a gas fire.

Reception room two is positioned to the rear of the home and again features decorative coving and a UPVC double-glazed bay window overlooking the garden with stunning views towards Pendle Hill. There is a central heating radiator and a feature brick-built electric fireplace, creating another cosy and inviting living space.

The downstairs WC has a UPVC double-glazed window, central heating radiator, WC and wash basin with vanity unit, with tiled splashback around the sink. This space also doubles as a useful cloakroom area for coats and shoes.

Moving through to the kitchen diner, this is a generous and versatile space. The room benefits from one UPVC double-glazed window and two solid wood double-glazed windows bringing in plenty of natural light, along with two central heating radiators and a feature gas fire.

There is a charming morning dining area ideal for a breakfast table, and access through to the traditional larder pantry as well as internal access to the garage. A wooden stable door also provides access outside, and the alarm control unit is located here.

The kitchen itself comprises a range of white wall and base units with laminate worktops, a stainless steel sink with drainer, plumbing for a washing machine, and space for a fridge freezer. The flooring is a mix of laminate and carpeted areas.

The larder room retains fantastic original character with a solid wood single-glazed window, cold store area, and additional storage.

Heading upstairs, the first floor landing has a UPVC double-glazed leaded window, a central heating radiator, and provides access to all three bedrooms, the bathroom, and a separate WC.

The front bedroom is a spacious double room featuring built-in fitted furniture and a UPVC double-glazed bay window with fantastic views across Burnley and towards Pendle. The room also has a central heating radiator and decorative coving.
