4 bed detached house for sale

Corner Cottage, Bowland Bridge LA11

Tucked away in a truly idyllic setting, this enchanting 16th century detached cottage enjoys a wonderfully peaceful position surrounded by rolling countryside, with far-reaching views across open fields and a real sense of rural tranquillity. The location offers the perfect balance of seclusion and community, with neighbouring cottages close by and the added charm of a one acre meadow opposite, often enjoyed for local traditions and village events. The south-facing aspect ensures the garden and living spaces are bathed in natural light throughout the day, with sunsets best enjoyed from the patio.

The living room is a warm and inviting space, centred around a characterful log burner and filled with period charm. A second living area provides an equally cosy retreat, also featuring a log burner and offering flexibility for family living or entertaining.
