Overview
I couldn't pass on the opportunity to ask the Vendor to write their take on what it's like living at number 4 when they tell it so well:

"Honestly, this house is like a Tardis. The through room, high ceilings and big windows has given us so much light all year round. The window on the gable also means the room gets bathed in late afternoon sunlight well into the evenings on summer nights.

Because of the light, we’ve been able to get away with bolder colours… we’ve filled it with art, flowers and furniture and it never feels full.

I knew where my Christmas tree would go as soon as I saw the room, and it's always been nestled between the two windows, so you can see it from all angles when you're approaching the house. The front room had a huge dining table in it when I viewed, it was a dead space, now I use it as a relaxed space for reading or listening to music, while still being able to put a table there for entertaining.

Both bedrooms have high ceilings similar to downstairs, again making them feel bright. Both have views but I personally love looking down the valley from the master bedroom after it has snowed…we have a brilliant view of the church, the village rooftops and the side of the valley and it just makes me smile every time I look at it. The benefit of having no properties opposite means that we’re not really overlooked and it’s great to lie in bed on a Sunday morning with a coffee. Again, the light floods into the master bedroom and breaks through to the landing and down the stairs especially on bright winter afternoons….have I mentioned how light the house is? Haha

We always joke that when the sun hits the yard, because of the elevated position you get views across the hills and have the rooftops in the foreground, it almost feels like you’re abroad on a terrace. It gets the sun throughout the afternoon so it’s great to relax in after work in the summer. Each year the borders and pots have been overflowing with flowers. When I first moved in, I was adamant that we should cut down the little tree but I am so glad we didn’t, it is a HIVE of birds, we’ve had all sorts in that garden from Bullfinches and Goldfinches to Wrens and Goldcrests. It is super secluded too, and when the sun drops below the hill you get the dramatic outline of the top of the valley silhouetted in the sky, it’s a great backdrop to a small fire pit.

We have used the geometric beds to house seasonal flowers, there are currently 150 alliums preparing to sprout under the bark. We installed wires on the front of the house and have started to train a wisteria to give even more curb appeal. It has been lovely over the years to see people stop to look at the flowers and parents and children brushing the grasses in the front trough.

In my opinion, there is no better valley to live in when the sun is shining, whether it be in the height of summer, the golden views during the autumn or on a crisp winter morning. I walk down to Siphon on my lunch and walk back, the Witchway gets you into Manchester in an hour and yet the house is at the end of the Rossendale Way. It is such a great place for having your cake and eating it when it comes to living in the country but being close to the city. We have loved taking the dog for a walk up to Heightside Farm and walking along the top of the valley, with views down to Peel Tower and Manchester. We have also spent loads of weekends walking along the Rossendale way, down to Clowbridge Res or up to the weather station. We’ve seen owls, been stargazing, had deer run in front of us while out on a dog walk, all within the bounds of the village. Oh and Riley’s has to get a mention…the best millionaire’s shortbread we’ve ever had and it has become a stipulation whenever we travel to see family that we take the smoky bacon and black pudding sausages from Riley’s with us."
