Calico Cottage occupies a large plot in a quiet and exclusive location on the outskirts of Chorley. Surrounded by properties of a similar nature and approached via a private no through road, the house has direct access to fantastic bridleways and footpaths, accessed through the Wheeldon plantation. The house is stone built and was converted in 2018 by the current owners and is built to a high specification, and to current building regulations.

The accommodation is arranged over one floor and provides flexible accommodation with three large double bedrooms offering superb scope for further division to create 5 bedrooms if desired.The contemporary design is visually impressive. Entrance to a walled private courtyard with turning circle. The front door is accessed by a covered entrance porch to an internal hallway.

The hallway gives way to the open plan living space passing two generous double bedrooms with contemporary ensuite bathrooms, one with walk in shower and the other with a bath with shower over.

The open plan kitchen / living / dining area is framed by a superb view across the gardens through sliding doors and French windows to two elevations. The kitchen is modern with a neutral gloss, along with worktops and integrated appliances, to include: fan oven, microwave, fridge freezer, dishwasher and ample storage. There is a large central island unit with seating.

Off the kitchen is a boiler / drying room, there is a separate utility room with space and plumbing for laundry machines and there is a separate internal log store which can be filled from outside. The living / dining area has a feeling of space due to the natural light from the door and the view in to the garden. There is a central contemporary log burning stove which can be turned on its plinth depending on which part of the room you are using.

Accessed from the rear of the lounge is the master suite which has its own French doors to the garden. There are two dressing areas, one with a clever hidden door, to the spacious ensuite bathroom again finished in a contemporary style.

Outside the gardens and grounds are private and filled with mature shrubs plants and trees. Across from the house and with access from the driveway there is a stone built double garage with attached stables. The garage is a true double with electric doors, power and water. The stables are block built and timber clad under a slate roof. There are three loose boxes and a workshop / tack room.
