Externally, the grounds provide an oasis of privacy and beauty, incorporating sweeping lawns, mature trees including Beech, Yew, and Cedar, and the curved stone balustrade reclaimed from Breightmet Hall. The gated horseshoe driveway allows for ample parking and leads to a substantial garage with capacity for three to four cars. Slater Cottage, constructed in the 1970s, offers further self-contained accommodation ideal for extended family or friends. Tastefully designed to complement the main house without overlooking it, the cottage provides a kitchen, sitting room, two bedrooms, and bathroom. The estate also incorporates a now unused 70ft by 41ft pool complex with 40ft x 20ft swimming pool, bar, plant room, and changing facilities, alongside a tennis court awaiting reinstatement or adaptation. The site also lends itself to further development potential, subject to necessary consents having previously had planning permission circa 1997 to convert the swimming pool in to a single storey dwelling. Rarely does a home of such provenance, scale, and opportunity grace the market. Slater House represents a unique chance to acquire not just a property, but a piece of Lancashire’s heritage. The house and cottage are held under separate ownership and, from a purchaser's perspective, may be acquired independently of one another. However, it is the sellers' preference that both properties are sold as part of a single transaction Council Tax Band: Slater House - H, Slater Cottage - E I Freehold I EPC: Slater House - D, Slater Cottage - D

Central to the farmstead is a partially renovated farmhouse which bears a date stone of 1716. Finished to first fix level, it is ready for kitchen and bathroom fittings, joinery and decoration. There is provision for two reception rooms, a large kitchen, four double bedrooms, a bathroom and ensuite. Attached is a converted barn for holiday lets, work is complete and offers a large living kitchen, three double bedrooms, all being ensuite. Thirdly, is a further attached barn, whilst the conversion has started, it requires completion. Planning permission exists and could provide two further holiday units; a single bedroomed unit in the basement with disabled access and a two bedroomed maisonette above. Not just a home, there’s potential to derive a second income through holiday letting. It may be possible to accommodate a dependent relative or have a permanent base for guests to stay. You may even decide to combine properties and create a more substantial main residence (all subject to the necessary consents). Adding versatile amenity value is a large agricultural building which provides ample space for parking, workshops, stabling and storage. This is all set within c.5.29 acres of grounds which includes a garden and field. It’s ideal for those looking to keep stock or chickens, grow their own veg or just let dogs and children run loose. Living here is an opportunity to embrace country living, to be closer to nature and live at one with seasons, to escape the hubbub of life and embrace the good life. Vendor Insight We value the peace and tranquillity here. It’s one of the very few places where there is zero motorway noise. The most traffic we see is when the Tour de Yorkshire or the yearly overnight rally stage passes by. So, whether we’re enjoying the view from our favourite window as the weather marches across the fells or the quiet of a sunrise on the terrace with a cuppa, or even sharing a sunset with friends around a roaring fire we’re conscious that we will disturb no-one and no-one will disturb us. Bank End has been a wonderful place to live and bring up a family. Our children have had the freedom and space to roam and play in safety. They have been able to toboggan down the field when it snowed, build swings in the trees, make forts in the barns or just wander about the fields, all just a shout away from the main house. An unrivalled location It is easy to fall in love with this extraordinary setting; on offer is peace and quiet, privacy and total seclusion and furthermore, tremendous views. Whilst you may be relaxing into splendid rural isolation, Bank End Farm remains well connected with the outside world. B4RN broadband provides a gigabit fibre service so whether it’s streaming the latest films, music or games, ordering an online grocery delivery or achieving an effective work life balance, it is all possible from here. There is a station in the nearest large village of Bentham with regular services to Leeds and connections via Lancaster station on the main west coast line to Manchester, Manchester Airport, London (Euston), Glasgow and Edinburgh. The M6 is accessible at Kendal or Lancaster depending on the direction of your travel and the A65 provides routes into Yorkshire and the east of the country. For those looking to explore the great outdoors, there could be no better place. It’s all on the doorstep; whether you choose to walk, run, cycle, drive or ride. There are good schools locally at both primary and secondary level as well as a host of artisan food producers and great cafes, pubs and restaurants for eating out. Vendor Insight It’s a unique location, standing alone at the end of its own drive, Bank End Farm is one of the last intact smallholdings in one of the most beautiful parts of the world and the views down the valley from first turning into the lane to the views across the fells from everywhere on the property are breathtaking. During the night the zero light pollution is ideal for star-gazers and we have spent many evenings sitting around a fire on the southern terrace enjoying the moonlight looking for shooting stars and, more recently, satellites. There’s a very strong sense of community here, possibly more so than in a village. We have wonderful neighbours; they have never been intrusive but have always been ready to help if needed. There are community events every year such as Bentham Agricultural Show and the Lowgill Sports Day which features a duck race and sheep trials among other events. Offering potential for four properties Barn conversion for holiday letting With a south and westerly orientation, the converted barn enjoys dramatic sweeping views. Finished with a modern country aesthetic, the accommodation is laid out over three floors. There’s much use of pine internal joinery and deep stone window cills alongside modern comforts such as PVC double glazing and oil-fired central heating (underfloor on the ground floor). The kitchen cabinets are oak fronted and the bath and shower rooms are all contemporary in their appointments. On the ground floor, the front door leads into an airy, double height staircase hall with a gallery landing above. Off the hall is a downstairs loo and area to hang coats. The rest of the ground floor is one big, sociable room. Here a picture window draws you forward as the view is truly breathtaking, the room is exceptionally spacious and with ample space to cook, dine and recline in comfort. Off the roomy first floor landing is an airing cupboard and two double bedrooms, both having ensuite bathrooms with rainfall showers over the baths. The stairs continue to the second floor with a third double bedroom set in the roof space with an ensuite shower room. Farmhouse Following the layout of a traditional Yorkshire Long House, with a barn either side the 1700s farmhouse is central to the layout. Renovation is well under way with first fix plumbing and electrics in place, plastering complete and PVC windows installed. The project is now ready for you to choose your own fixtures and fittings, personalise and equip your own dream country home. Befitting of the period of the house, there are some attractive character features which have been retained and incorporated within the restoration, these include the carved date stone, oak ceiling beams, wooden lintels over windows, oak lined recesses and stone mullion windows. The ground floor comprises three large rooms, a vintage Aga cooking range has been kept, it sits within a stone surround and is ready for overhaul. The other two rooms both have flue liners ready for your choice of stove and doors out to the large south facing terrace. The views from all three rooms are extensive. Off the first-floor landing there is provision for four double bedrooms; two of which have ceilings rising high to the roof’s apex with exposed original roof trusses. There is potential for a house bathroom and ensuite shower room. Barn with planning approval for conversion to two holiday letting properties. With a southeast perspective, the third property is a second attached barn, the conversion has commenced, the works comprising a new roof, pointing and drains laid. Planning permission exists for change of use of this redundant agricultural building to form additional holiday accommodation. (Ref: 03/01107/CU dated 19/11/03) and could provide two further properties; a single bedroomed unit in on the ground floor and a two bedroomed unit in the two upper floors. This is an opportunity to live a greener life. Bank End Farm is off grid, with no mains provision of services. Opportunities exist to expand the provision and embrace self-sufficiency and eco credentials further. Vendor Insight Most of all Bank End has always felt like home and a safe place to come back to. Bought on a handshake, it was almost as if Bank End chose us and we have always had the sense that living there has been a privilege. Gardens A substantial split-level sandstone flagged terrace lies to the front of the property, beyond this is a lawn. The terrace and garden face almost due south and command vast, wide open panoramic views of the sweeping fells to the south and over to the west. Truly extraordinary, the views are a constant evolving delight with farming activity and the changing weather and rolling seasons. To the rear of the properties is a large area for parking. Land Adjoining the garden, the field offers opportunity for animal husbandry, growing your own fruit and vegetables, adventure and play. A large multi-purpose agricultural building, with power and light, provides ample space for parking, machinery, general storage, workshops and sheltering animals. Both the land and large building are essential elements to enhance and add value to any country lifestyle. In total, the property extends to c. 5.29 acres. Vendor Insight All the fields and fells around Bank End are working farmland and we enjoy feeling close to it. During summer calves spend time at the lower gate and at various times of the year the fells ring with the sound of all the local farmers working together to bring the sheep down from wherever they are hefted on the fells. We live with a rich diversity of wildlife; kestrels, buzzards, woodpeckers, little owls, barn owls, wagtails, blackbirds, great tits and many more all live on or around and local twitchers are often to be seen. A few years ago, sightings of a hooded crow caused great excitement. Planning Planning permission was granted by Lancaster City Council reference 03/01107/CU dated 19/11/03 for the “Change of use of redundant agricultural buildings to form additional living accommodation to existing dwelling and to provide holiday accommodation.” Please note A public footpath crosses the land to the rear of the barn conversion.
