Escape to the country in this historic farmhouse which has come on the market with offers over £1.1M.

The Grade II-listed Georgian farmhouse is situated on 24 acres of land, with potential for development.

Clough House Farm is located in the picturesque village of Turton on Greens Arms Road.

It is being marketed by Joules with details on Zoopla.

Highlights include 'stunning views' across the valley and the potential for whoever buys it to put their own mark the building through refurbishments.

The estate agent notes that pre-planning consultations in recent years have indicated support from Heritage and Planning officers for a hamlet-style development on the site.

In the early 2000s, planning permission (now expired) was granted for a substantial dwelling to rise out of the milking parlour and adjacent silos.

Currently, a scheme has been submitted to planning which includes the conversion of the farmhouse and outbuildings, as well as the provision of three new dwellings, totalling nine dwellings.

The estate agent suggests that the development opportunity may appeal not only to developers and investors but also to ambitious householders who have the resources to restore the buildings for their own use.

Located in close proximity to Turton and Edgworth, an area of 'prestigious and high-value homes', the sale is billed as an 'exciting opportunity.'

The farmhouse itself comprises a ground floor with an L-shaped hall, lounge, dining room, kitchen, sitting room, utility room, and study.

The lounge features a stone fireplace and faux beamed ceiling, while the kitchen is fitted with a range of base, wall and drawer units, granite worktops, and integrated appliances.

Upstairs, the property has four bedrooms, including a master bedroom with built-in wardrobes and an ensuite bathroom.

The ensuite features a Villeroy & Bosch roll top club-footed bath, shower cubicle, and hand basin with granite top.

In addition, there is dependent relative accommodation which includes a living kitchen, lounge, bathroom, and two bedrooms, all in need of refurbishment.

The estate agent suggests that variations to the current scheme submitted could further enrich the project, subject to planning and at the buyer's discretion.
