Located just outside York Village, 2 miles from Whalley village centre Whins lodge sits in an elevated position and has stunning views across the Ribble Valley. This extensive family home has huge potential and although in need of some upgrading and improvement this property will appeal to those seeking to personalise a property to their own specification in a convenient location. The house is spacious and well-proportioned with five bedrooms, two bathrooms, four reception rooms, a kitchen / breakfast room and a garden room. There is a substantial garage with attached outbuildings and extensive gardens with surrounding land extending to approximately 4 acres. The views across the valley are breath-taking and inspection is encouraged.
Whins Lodge is an exciting opportunity to purchase a property in the heart of the Ribble Valley with outstanding views. The property sits in a substantial plot extending to approximately four acres and includes some woodland and beautiful mature gardens and grounds. Originally constructed as a bungalow in 1913, a first floor was added in the 1950's and is a substantial family home extending to approximately 3500sqft. The house would now benefit from modernisation and upgrading and has the potential to be an outstanding property.
Entry via the front door leads to a spacious reception hallway with solid wooden flooring and a central staircase to the first floor. On each side of the hallway, there are spacious reception rooms with large bay windows to the front of the property to embrace the stunning views over the valley below. To the rear of the hall is a spacious kitchen/ breakfast room with a range of base and wall units and windows overlooking the gardens to the side of the property. A door from the kitchen leads out to a garden room with floor to ceiling windows.

To the first floor there is a spacious landing from the well lit staircase and five generous double bedrooms all with lovely views, there are two large family bathrooms.
Externally the property benefits from a large garden and mature extending to approximately 1 acre with a patio terrace, a garden shed and a pond. In addition there is a two acre paddock and about one acre of woodland. To the side of the house is an outbuilding previously used as a workshop, dog kennels and a potting shed. There is a large driveway for up to five vehicles which leads to a separate garage which is also of a generous size.
