Stunning former smithy offering beautiful presentation in a wonderful rural setting.
Prominently positioned along a beautiful & peaceful country lane and resting within stunning countryside that is set right in the heart of Crank - Number 22 Red Cat Lane is a wonderful example of a renovated stone property that perfectly balances the rural setting and idyllic lifestyle with the convenience of still being within easy reach of motorways, local towns & acclaimed schools.
Originally dating back to the mid 1700s & formerly a smithy, the property was developed some years ago into the wonderful, unique property it is today.
Internally the home is set across two floors and totals a generous 1380 square feet of beautiful living space that simply must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
The home in brief comprises; a welcoming and spacious hallway, a spacious 23ft main lounge / diner with spot lighting & feature log burner, a superb open plan fitted kitchen with high gloss units, a breakfast bar plus a range of integrated appliances.
Upstairs there is an impressive luxury master bedroom which boasts a particularly spacious contemporary en-suite too. Two additional double bedrooms are located on the ground floor plus there is a modern principal bathroom suite.
Externally, the plot and surroundings here are another key feature of the home. The property commands a wonderful eye-catching position from the road and benefits from a generous driveway providing ample off road parking. The gardens are mature, back onto picturesque open countryside and enjoys some breathtaking views. The rear also benefits from a westerly orientation & therefore some wonderful sunsets and late summer sun. Locally, although the setting here is undoubtably peaceful & sits on the doorstep for numerous pretty trails & scenic walks, the home is also conveniently close to various schools, amenities and motorway transport links & towns such as Wigan & St Helens. Viewings are absolutely essential.
