Heritage & Heart

Dating back to 1877, and originally serving as the old coach house and stables historically connected to the textile mill, The Stable House is a handsome semi-detached period conversion set between Helmshore and Ramsbottom. With mature grounds, tree-lined outlooks and open countryside close by, it delivers the calm and character of rural living while keeping daily essentials and commuter links within easy reach. Full of character and ready for modernisation, this is a rare opportunity to shape a truly special family home.

Welcome Home

Arrive along Alden Road to a private and peaceful setting, surrounded by greenery and long-established planting. Step inside and you’re greeted by a beautiful hallway of exposed stonework and feature beams, immediately setting the tone. A feature staircase window, installed to complement the traditional style, draws the eye upward, filling the space with soft natural light and giving a first glimpse of the property’s period craftsmanship.

Living with Character

Generous, traditional proportions guide you through the ground floor. A formal dining room offers an elegant setting for entertaining, flowing into a welcoming lounge where a distinctive round feature window frames the garden and countryside beyond. A snug provides a cosy retreat for quiet evenings, while the garden room invites you to pause and take in uninterrupted views of green lawns and trees.

A separate kitchen forms a practical everyday hub, served by a utility room and a ground-floor shower room - ideal for family life, walking routes and four-legged companions. The large attached garage provides excellent storage, hobby space or future conversion potential, subject to planning.

Rest & Restore

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms offer flexibility for family living, guests or working from home. The principal bedroom impresses, with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams creating a striking sense of volume and heritage, complemented by its own en-suite. The family bathroom completes the upper floor, supporting a comfortable and adaptable lifestyle.

Garden Sanctuary

Outside, the garden delivers a rare sense of space and seclusion, with generous lawns bordered by mature trees and natural screening that create a truly private setting. Green views stretch outward to the landscape beyond, giving a peaceful, countryside feel that’s hard to find. Whether you’re watching children play, planning summer gatherings, or simply enjoying quiet evenings as the valley softens into dusk, this is a garden that encourages slower living and a deep connection with its surroundings - a haven sheltered from the world, where privacy and calm come as standard.

Life in the Valley

This setting offers the perfect balance: semi-rural peace with convenience close at hand. Footpaths lead straight into the Alden Valley and West Pennine Moors, while nearby Helmshore and Ramsbottom provide cafés, independent shops and well-loved dining spots including The Cotton House, Anacapri, GemNi and The Whitchaff.

Leisure options include the Adrenaline Centre and Marl Pits, with local heritage showcased at the Helmshore Mills Textile Museum. Commuters benefit from fast access to the A56 linking to the M66, with regional bus routes including the X41 and R1 offering alternatives. Families are well-served by sought-after schools, including Helmshore Primary, St Veronica’s, and Haslingden High & Sixth Form.
