Believed to have been constructed in the 18th century, and formerly the home of Edwin Furness, manager of the Mellor Mill, this prestigious Grade II listed detached residence offers an exceptional combination of historic significance, architectural elegance, and refined modern living.<br/><br/>The property presents exquisitely detailed interiors, where original period features such as ornate cornicing, feature fireplaces, and elegant sash windows have been carefully preserved and enhanced. These characterful elements are seamlessly complemented by high-quality contemporary finishes, creating a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere throughout.<br/><br/>Set in an elevated position, the home enjoys far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside, with light-filled accommodation comprising five generously proportioned double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each room has been thoughtfully designed to balance comfort and style, making the property ideally suited to both family living and entertaining.<br/><br/>Externally, the residence is set within approximately nine acres of mature grounds, offering a rare sense of privacy and tranquillity. Manicured lawns, established planting, and thoughtfully designed terraces frame the house beautifully, providing a range of outdoor seating and entertaining areas. The approach is particularly impressive, with gated access leading to a substantial driveway offering ample off-road parking and a striking sense of arrival.<br/><br/>The extensive grounds also present excellent potential for further landscaping, gardening, or leisure use, all set against the backdrop of panoramic countryside views. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished period home of considerable heritage in a truly enviable rural setting.<br/>EPC Rating: E
