Located in a slightly elevated position within the Lancaster Lane Conservation Area and surrounded by approximately one acre of mature gardens, this charming, detached period cottage, dating back to circa 1600's holds a fascinating history amidst its stone walls. Sympathetically extended over more recent times, the cottage presents three generous reception rooms, a well-appointed dining kitchen, cloakroom, three double bedrooms to the first floor one with en suite plus a hobby room, and a family bathroom. This lovely home is situated in one of Lancashire's most popular villages with commuter rail links to Southport, Wigan and Manchester as well as being ideally located for easy access to the motorway networks. This combined with excellent local schools and outstanding village amenities make viewing the property an absolute must. Croasdale Cottage once formed part of the Richard Durning Estate and has held several names during its existence including "Chauffeurs Cottage". There are period features to be found throughout to include mullion windows to the front, exposed raze-edged ceiling and wall beams, tongue and groove latch doors and open brick ingle fireplaces with stone hearths. In more recent times the property has been upgraded to enhance the accommodation whilst being mindful to meld and preserve the history. The principal front door, sheltered by a letter-box porch, is now rarely used as the driveway gives easier access to the more practical side entrance and lobby with side window and semi-vaulted ceiling. The quarry tiled flooring continues from here into the inner hallway which meanders through to the reception rooms and kitchen, passing the turned staircase to the first floor and the cloakroom which has been fitted with a contemporary two-piece white suite.

This room is currently used as a gym and has a wall mounted television point. The sitting room has two double-glazed side windows, a double-glazed window plus a feature niche window to the front and is also lit by recessed downlights. The focal point of the room is the stone-lined ingle fireplace and hearth which also has a wall-mounted television point over.The triple aspect Breakfast Kitchen with exposed stone to one wall and ceramic tiled flooring has French windows which open directly onto the rear sun terrace and a side exit door with a "bull's eye" glazed inset. An extensive range of limed oak wall and base units are fitted to three walls and include drawer banks, bookshelves and glazed display cabinets. The deep-blue marble effect work-surfaces have an inset one and a half bowl stainless-steel single-drainer sink unit with mixer tap over. Integrated appliances include a Siemens microwave oven, an automatic dishwasher, fridge and freezer, and there is space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and also a dining table and chairs. The Potterton gas central heating boiler is also housed in one of the cabinets. The split-level landing gives access to the three double bedrooms all of which have fitted wardrobes. The master bedroom overlooks the rear garden, has a pendant light, loft access point and exposed timber floorboards. The en suite has a low-level opaque double-glazed window to the front, ceiling light and a chrome ladder-style heated towel rail.

It offers potential to further enhance its appeal with secured planning permission for the renovation of two substantial barns. After being left derelict, these properties became a labour of love for the current owners as they painstakingly revived three out of the five buildings on the expansive 2-acre site, in less than 5 years. The transformation is truly incredulous from seeing images of their original crumbling state, almost resembling ruins, to now beholding impeccably kept grounds, featuring a luxurious 6-bedroom farmhouse and a stunning 2-bedroom, stone cottage that generates a substantial yearly income through a holiday cottage rental. It's truly a testament to the dedication and vision of the owners.
