This is a rare opportunity to rent one of the most sympathetic yet detailed farmhouse renovations in the area. This superb grade II listed property set on the edge of the West Pennine Moors, close to Belmont and Rivington offers spacious three bedroomed accomodation to the main house, and a self contained, attached, one bedroomed extension set in an idyllic rural location on the outskirts of Belmont Village, and having mature private gardens with exceptional countryside views. The original part of the property was built in 1704 and has been modernised to the very highest of standards and was sympathetically extended in 2004. The farmhouse is set at the end of a country lane, within a small courtyard of three similar conversions, and is surrounded by spectacular scenery. Whilst the property is over half a mile from the main road giving superb privacy and peacefulness, it is only a short driving distance from Belmont Village, Bolton and the Motorway network for commuting.
