Laburnum Cottages, Crawshawbooth

Want to feel like you are on vacation everyday if you had the opportunity? Well this could be your opportunity...

That's exactly how I felt when I was sat amongst a meadow of year-round flowers, soaking up the sun in the south-west facing front garden. I was even tempted to pick up the book on the table and immerse myself in the moment as it was too relaxing.

This three bedroom, 1870's property has a way of telling a story. Strolling up the stone path, being welcomed by well-kept gardens and a pretty row of terraces. You approach number 3, a garden full of butterflies and bees with seasonal planting for all-year-round colour, plus a beautiful Laburnum to admire.

Enter into the lounge, cosying up next to a stunning log burner. This room offers plenty of space to add all your homely furnishings, with high ceilings and beautiful wood shelving in the alcoves.

Moving into the bright and open space in the kitchen, the room also offers scope to add more units or even space for a small kitchen island if that's something you've been dreaming of having. It has another feature fireplace that would be a beautiful place for a range or Aga.

The kitchen space flows into a lovely conservatory area at the rear. The sun rises over the back garden in the morning and it’s the perfect spot for coffee and breakfast.

Evening comes and you can enjoy a well-cooked meal, sat in the dining space in the conservatory listening to the magical sounds of barn and tawny owls from the back of the house.

I can't not mention one little perk downstairs that I absolutely adore. The cellar pantry is a cool and rare feature you don't find in many homes. This fantastically quirky element is one of the many features that make this house a home.

Moving upstairs you have three great sized bedrooms that are all very peaceful and private.

The master bedroom at the front has fantastic views of the countryside. You can watch the sun roll over the hills lighting up the farmer's fields in the morning out of the two large windows. The room also has a beautiful feature fireplace.

The rear bedroom fits a double bed, has a built in cupboard in the alcove for wardrobe space or storage, plus a chest of drawers. With nothing overlooking you, this bedroom is also very private.

The third bedroom is the attic room which is an original part of the building and is a fantastic size. It comprises a staircase, eaves storage and Velux window.

Crawshawbooth is part of the parish of Goodshaw, on the outskirts of Loveclough. The little village has shops only a short walk away, bus stops at the end of the street. The house is less than a 10 minute drive to motorway links and supermarkets and an abundance of boutiques, restaurants, bars, markets and more.

We like to shout about the brilliant bus route that we have here in Rossendale, the Manchester Witchway X43 Bus that is just £2 and runs straight from Burnley through Crawshawbooth, Rawtenstall, Prestwich and straight to Manchester.

With the highly regarded Crawshawbooth Primary School (feeder school to BRGS)
less than a 5 minute walk away, you are also near to numerous Nurseries and High Schools in Rawtenstall.

You are spoilt when it comes to an active lifestyle in Crawshawbooth and the surrounding villages. There are plenty of gyms and country walks, one being literally from your doorstep, from behind the cottages onto Goodshawfold Lane and to the moors beyond. There are many cycle trails in Rossendale and plenty of children's parks, with many other beautiful neighbouring towns. There is also a huge art community.

Countryside, views, a community, amenities, schools, history... This property ticks so many boxes and could become your home.
