Property description & features

Set on the lower slopes of Longridge Fell and overlooking the beautiful Forest of Bowland, with stunning 360 degree panoramic views from Pendle Hill to Parlick Fell, you will truly love this unique detached six-bedroom farmhouse. Boasting traditional architecture and retaining many original features including pitch pine window surrounds, and sills, latched doors, exposed stone walls, stone flag floors, exposed beamed ceilings and stone inglenook fireplaces, this is a dream country home to suit a variety of buyers.

Set within a hamlet of three residences in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Rakefoot House enjoys a spectacular 0.5 acre plot. It comprises a spacious detached, six-bedroom stone-built farmhouse, separate stone-built, multi-use stable block (8.41m x 5.07m), stone-built garden store, generous gardens and paddock. The property provides spectacular views of open countryside from all aspects and through every window, yet is only a short drive from the market towns of Clitheroe to the east and Longridge and the motorway network to the south and west. Nearby transport links include the Preston train line with direct links to Manchester and London. With several outstanding schools on its doorstep, it really does provide the best of both worlds. It is approached by a privately owned road with access for only two other properties, leading up to its own separate tarmacadam private driveway with ample parking for multiple cars and with the potential to create more garden space and seating areas to enjoy the open, stunning views.

There is an option to purchase additional land by separate negotiation.

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

    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
