Historic Goosnargh farmhouse hits market for £850,000

The Grade-II listed property, located in Goosnargh, is set in attractively landscaped grounds and combines period features with modern practicalities.

The house is believed to date from the 17th Century and sits on 0.74 acres of land, offering four bedrooms, an adjoining barn, and substantial outbuildings with potential for conversion.

Located on Horns Lane, the detached farmhouse is described by estate agents Fine & Country as a "rare opportunity" and offers a blend of historical charm and flexible living space.

 Fine & Country said: "Opportunities to acquire homes of this calibre are rare, and this distinguished Grade II listed farmhouse with adjoining barn deserves prompt attention.

"Believed to date from the 17th Century, the property occupies a superb plot of approximately 0.74 acres in a highly desirable yet conveniently accessible semi-rural setting."

The home features a formal entrance hall with vaulted beamed ceilings and a glazed barn arch, leading to the principal bedroom with dressing room and en-suite.

A contemporary family bathroom and a dining area with stone-flagged flooring flow into a family breakfast kitchen fitted with oak-fronted units, a wood-burning stove, and the original front door.

Adjoining the kitchen is a utility room with space for an integrated fridge and freezer, plumbing for a washing machine, and a floor-mounted Worcester boiler.

Upstairs, the galleried landing opens to a living room with vaulted ceilings and exposed roof timbers.
