4 Bedroom Detached House, Burnley Road, Accrington, BB5

The ground floor immediately showcases the character and elegance of the home, beginning with an impressive entrance vestibule and hallway that highlights many of the property’s original features. Upon entering, you are welcomed by beautiful original tiled flooring and an arrangement of decorative stained glass windows and doors, allowing natural light to filter through while adding colour and architectural interest. The hallway itself is both spacious and inviting, centred around a striking open balustrade staircase that rises to the first floor and forms an attractive focal point. Conveniently positioned beneath the staircase is a downstairs WC, providing practical facilities for guests and everyday family living.

The property offers two generous reception rooms, both benefiting from the home’s impressive ceiling heights, ornate cornicing and period detailing. The principal reception room enjoys a large bay window that floods the space with natural light and enhances the sense of scale, while a feature fireplace creates a natural focal point. The second reception room provides further flexible living accommodation and benefits from French doors opening onto the garden, allowing for an easy connection between indoor and outdoor space.

At the heart of the home is a beautiful open dining kitchen, designed as a welcoming hub for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with custom-built cabinetry and bespoke fitted units, complemented by high-end work surfaces and a range of integral appliances. A standout feature of the room is the traditional gas-fired AGA, set within an attractive surround that provides both functionality and character. The space flows naturally into a dining area, offering ample room for a large table and creating an ideal setting for family meals. Beyond the kitchen, further practical accommodation includes a utility room providing additional space for laundry appliances and storage. This leads through to a store room, which also benefits from an existing WC point. The ground floor also provides access to an integral garage, ideal for secure parking, storage or workshop use. The property also has a cellar with traditional Yorkshire stone paving stones, electric and water.

The first floor of the property continues to showcase the home’s impressive proportions and period charm, centred around a spacious and characterful landing that immediately sets the tone for the accommodation above. This area is a real feature of the home, enhanced by tall ceilings, decorative wall panelling and a striking arched window that allows natural light to flood the space throughout the day. The landing itself is unusually generous in size and comfortably accommodates occasional furniture, creating an additional family space that could be utilised as a reading area, display space or quiet seating area. The traditional staircase, decorative detailing and large window all combine to create a welcoming and elegant transition between floors.

The main bedroom is a particularly impressive double room, offering ample space for a full range of bedroom furniture. This room benefits from a run of built-in wardrobes, providing excellent storage while maintaining the sense of space within the room. The bedroom is also served by a modern en-suite shower room, which has been thoughtfully designed and finished to a contemporary standard. The en-suite features a vanity unit incorporating a wash basin with storage below, a concealed cistern WC for a clean and streamlined appearance, and a large shower enclosure fitted with a mains-fed shower, all complemented by modern tiling and practical fittings.
