Occupying an exceptional position in one of the area’s most picturesque hamlets, this outstanding barn conversion offers the rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful rural living while remaining just ten minutes from the amenities of Burnley town centre. Tucked beneath Hurstwood Reservoir and bordered by dense pine woodland, Hurstwood takes its name from the old-Englishhyrst,meaning a wooded prominence and is rich in heritage, with properties dating back to the 16th century and reputed connections to the Elizabethan poet Edmund Spenser.

Forming part of an exclusive courtyard development, this highly desirable home is set within a sympathetically converted 17th-century Grade II listed farmhouse barn. The result is a perfect balance of rustic character and modern comfort. Inside, the property exudes warmth and charm, featuring exposed stonework, timber flooring and stunning timber beams. Modern conveniences have been carefully integrated, with underfloor gas central heating to both levels and quality sealed-unit double glazing that enhances the deep stone sills and exposed timber lintels.

The impressive reception space creates an inviting hub for family living and entertaining, flowing seamlessly through double glazed doors into a beautifully appointed breakfast kitchen and out to the private rear garden. To the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, including a superb master with ensuite, complemented by a luxurious house bathroom.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The private courtyard is accessed via a secluded lane and enclosed by traditional dry-stone walling, with allocated parking for residents. To the rear, a level lawned garden with paved patio offers an ideal setting for relaxation and outdoor dining.

Offering tranquillity, history and contemporary living in equal measure, this exceptional home must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Early viewing is strongly recommended.
