Summary:
Welcome to Dewhurst Farmhouse, a charming and unique four-bedroom property in the heart of Egerton, which boasts spacious rooms throughout, is brimming with character, and is presented in immaculate condition. This lovely stone property dates back to the c.1830s, and was used as a working farmhouse until the late 1900s! Let’s take a look at the finer details…
Full Details:
Spacious & Charming
Be welcomed into the spacious main hallway where you immediately notice the charming character, owing to the high ceilings, wall panelling, exposed brick work, beam work, and wooden arch. This space is bathed with plenty of natural light, which bounces around the room off the beautiful wooden floor. The main lounge is situated off the hallway, where an imposing chimney breast is home to a magnificent fireplace, and white walls ensure the space is bright and airy. Due to the charm and space available here, this space is an impressive lounge to say the least!
The abundance of character continues in the kitchen, where more ornate beam work and a quaint breakfast bar inlet can be found. The kitchen itself consists of traditional oak kitchen cupboards, neutral tiling splashbacks, and the white worktops and walls create a fresh, bright, and airy atmosphere. Integrated appliances include a double oven with four-plate gas hob and extractor, and dishwasher, plus a free-standing American-style fridge-freezer.
Sleeping & Bathing
The period charm of this property continues upstairs, where three generous sized double bedrooms continue the elegant aesthetic of this lovely home – white walls ensure the bright and airy feeling continues, and traditional beam work reminds you of this property’s heritage. With three large doubles there is sure to be enough room here for the whole family!
A well-presented bright and airy main bathroom boasts a great amount of space, and includes a four-piece suite, featuring a bath, walk-in shower, wash basin, and WC.
A Self-Contained Annex
Beneath the ground floor of Dewhurst Farmhouse lies what could be a self-contained annex! Down a set of stairs at the back of the property and you find yourself in another characterful lounge, where more high ceilings, white walls, and a great stone fireplace make can be found. This room is cosy and spacious at the same time. Elsewhere on this lower level is another beautiful reception room with a vaulted ceiling, where streams of natural light pour through skylights, lighting up the space below, featuring oak flooring and unique features such as the exposed stonework of what was once the main entrance to the farmhouse! How would you make use of this space?
This lower level of accommodation also offers a double bedroom, shower room with WC, and a large utility room offering extra space for your household goods and appliances.
Another entrance to the property sits in the middle of the side elevation on this lower level, which opens onto your own courtyard! A quiet south-facing spot to enjoy a good book while soaking up some sun. Beyond this courtyard lies a good portion of your own land, including a small lawn and elevated lush green garden with path up to the main road, as well as plenty of space for parking on Egerton Vale.
Outside Spaces
In addition to the courtyard mentioned above, Dewhurst Farmhouse provides two outdoor areas – a pleasant split-level patio style garden on the north side of the house, as well as another walled garden to the front, which is also south facing so will get plenty of sun! Looking at the practical side of the property, the large amount of land on the south side provides plenty of potential, and the outside storage shed is handy for storing outdoor equipment.
Egerton Village
Sat in the heart of Egerton, this property is ideally suited to those looking for a village lifestyle with a community feel and a great selection of local amenities on your doorstep. Cafes, restaurants, and pubs are aplenty in Egerton, and further afield in neighbouring Bromley Cross, as well as shops and transport links via rail and road leading to central Bolton, Manchester, and beyond.
As well as the practicalities mentioned above, Egerton is a delightful place to live! On the edge of the West Pennine Moors, with a quaint village feel nestled amongst the surrounding countryside, it’s an ideal location for those who prefer a quieter way of life and a more rural environment… Scenic country walks are aplenty, as well as having Delph Sailing Club and Turton and Dunscar Golf Clubs nearby.
