**GROUND FLOOR**

PORCH - 1.05 x 1.03m

MASTER BEDROOM - 2.62 x 4.45m
The spacious master bedroom comfortably accommodates a double bed alongside additional furniture. Redevelopment including fresh decoration and new flooring would significantly enhance the room’s comfort and character.

A well-proportioned second bedroom, suitable as a guest room, nursery, or home office. Like the rest of the property, it requires modernisation and cosmetic refurbishment to bring it up to date.

FAMILY BATHROOM - 1.57 x 3.13m
Fitted with a dated three-piece suite, the bathroom is ready for a full refit. This offers the opportunity to create a sleek, modern, and practical family space.

**SECOND FLOOR**

ATTIC ROOM - 4.13 x 3.35m
The versatile attic room on the top floor lends itself well as a home office, studio, or additional storage area. Although in need of refurbishment and finishing touches, it benefits from a Velux window that offers an abundance of natural light, enhancing its appeal.

**THE AREA**
Situated in the picturesque heart of the Rossendale Valley, Stacksteads is a charming and historic village within the town of Bacup, Lancashire. Surrounded by rolling hills and striking moorland, the village boasts a rich industrial heritage rooted in textile manufacturing and coal mining, which significantly shaped its growth throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. Traditional stone terraced houses line the streets, contributing to a strong sense of community and complementing the stunning natural surroundings that attract walkers, cyclists, and nature lovers alike.

The River Irwell meanders gently through Stacksteads, amplifying its rural ambience while serving as a poignant reminder of the area’s industrial past. Today, the village offers a tranquil residential setting that maintains its authentic village charm alongside convenient access to larger towns such as Rawtenstall and Burnley. Local amenities include primary schools, inviting green spaces like Moorlands Park, and a variety of community organisations dedicated to preserving the area’s unique character.

Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby Lee Quarry and Cragg Quarry mountain bike trails, popular for their thrilling terrain. Community-led initiatives such as the Stacksteads Countryside Park Group (SCPG) continue to improve local green spaces and nurture a vibrant community spirit. While the village has faced economic challenges typical of many post-industrial regions, Stacksteads remains a resilient and welcoming place to call home.
