Welcome to Birches Brow, an elegant 18th century farmhouse currently utilised as a 9 bedroom boutique guesthouse this substantial property can quite easily be converted back to a family residence offering 5-6 en-suite bedrooms plus a modern open plan kitchen diner. Boasting a prime location sited in approximately 1 acre of landscaped grounds, peacefully located within a small hamlet in Aughton surrounded by glorious Lancashire countryside. Offered on a chain free basis we present a unique opportunity to secure a piece of history.

Approach this characterful detached residence via a winding cotswold stone driveway featuring an exclusive Yorkshire stone border cleverly lit come twilight hours. 'Birches Brow' is iconic for its four Beech tree's standing proudly within the beautifully landscaped grounds; mainly laid to lawn featuring cobbled pathways and a therapeutic trickling pond. A further cobbled area provides sufficient parking space should one wish to utilise the current car park as garden space.

Previously a generous family home for many years, this property has since been sympathetically restored & beautifully modernised by the current owners to present nine ensuite bedrooms plus the addition of a kitchen & laundry room. A separate two storey outbuilding presents further opportunity to create further living accommodation (stpp), or perhaps a dedicated office space. The accommodation can quite simply revert back to a family home with the removal of two ensuite bathrooms; viewing is highly recommended in order to fully appreciate the opportunities this timeless property presents.

Offering a semi-rural lifestyle with views stretching across rolling Lancashire countryside to the Liverpool waterfront & beyond. Whilst Birches Brow offers a sense of the rural life it is conveniently situated just 2 miles from the historic market town of Ormskirk (5 minutes drive to be precise). Ormskirk offers a variety of High Street & independent shops & restaurants, alongside a traditional weekly market which proves very popular with the locals. Ormskirk train station offers direct links to Liverpool City Centre, whilst the nearby motorways provide excellent links to Manchester, Liverpool & beyond.

      Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on March 1, 2022

      Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

      Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
      Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
      Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

      The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

      Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 1, 2022

      Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

      Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
      Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
      Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
      Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
      Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

      Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on August 12, 2020 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
