Woodfold Park, Mellor, Blackburn, Lancashire

VIEWS!
We love this home! Spacious but quirky set in around 2.5 acres (1.04ha) and in a fantastic setting! This beautiful property is orientated towards the stunning views to the rear; the kitchen and main reception spaces all make the most of these.
The house offers 3 reception rooms, 4 bedrooms, 3 / 4 bathrooms and is set in beautiful well-presented grounds to include plenty of parking, garaging, lawns, vegetable gardens and woodland. Woodfold Park is a stunning location and this home is nicely tucked away within the grounds. It’s semi-rural position in the prestigious Woodfold Park, gives it a real rural feel yet the location enjoys the benefit of having great access to the main road and motorway network. There are a good range of schools in the area including Westholme, Stonyhurst and Clitheroe Royal Grammar School and is at the gateway to charming Ribble Valley villages with gastro pubs, yet the amenities of the city of Preston of equal driving distance.

Substantial double electric gates open onto the Woodfold Park estate and you can follow the signposts through Woodfold Park to 1 Walled Garden. A further gateway opens to reveal a block-paved driveway which opens out and unveils the property. There is plenty of parking ahead of the garaging and the front door.
The solid wood front door opens into the front porch and hall beyond. The entrance hall has a WC with cloaks off. Stairs lead up in front of you to a seating area and also down to some of the reception rooms. To the left and right of the entrance hall, at the front of the property, there is a study looking out to the front and a cinema room also with windows out to the front. A door from the study leads to the integral double garage.

Most of the day-to-day living is likely to be done at the rear of the house looking across the estate parkland, where there is a fabulous contemporary kitchen by Rational to include a range of units, central island with a glass breakfast bar and integrated appliances of hob, three ovens, combi microwave oven, full length fridge and two warming drawers. This fabulous room has large sliding doors providing views out across the gardens and the stunning countryside beyond but also out to the patio areas at the rear making this a fantastic space for entertaining. This room opens to a snug which also has sliding doors out to the rear with a contemporary cylindrical wood burning stove adding a real cosy focal point to the room. This space would equally be suitable used as a dining room.

What is a rural property without a good boot room ? This boot room includes shower and WC along with a sink. This is an extremely practical space for a property such as this. The property also has the benefit of a double garage which has electric ‘up and over’ doors.

Like the kitchen and snug area, the large lounge also has large sliding doors out to the rear along with a picture window ensuring this a bright and relaxing space.

The staircase rises up to the first floor where there are four bedrooms in total. The principal bedroom is a fabulous space which is split level and enjoys those fantastic views. This room includes a walk-in wardrobe and a super ensuite which has a contemporary slipper bath, shower and WC.

The second bedroom enjoys a shower ensuite, whilst the third bedroom has views to the rear of the property and benefits from a second room off it – perfect for a teenager to use as a study or games room, and use of the family bathroom opposite.

This bathroom has a bath with a shower over, WC, heated towel rail and a wash handbasin set in a unit.
