An exceptional opportunity has arisen to acquire a substantial Grade II listed stone barn, occupying a highly sought-after rural position in Todmorden. It is surrounded by open countryside and enjoys a truly tranquil setting, while remaining within easy reach of Todmorden and Hebden Bridge town centres. Set within a generous plot, the barn enjoys a peaceful and elevated position with far-reaching rural views, offering a rare chance to create a bespoke countryside residence of considerable character and presence. The property presents significant potential for conversion into a five-bedroom dwelling, subject to the necessary planning and listed building consents. The existing approvals and indicative plans provide a strong foundation for the creation of an impressive family home, sensitively balancing the building’s historic significance with the opportunity for refined contemporary living. Subject to the relevant consents, there is scope to create generous and flexible living accommodation, designed to maximise natural light and space while retaining the barn’s original stonework, proportions and architectural integrity. A notable investment has already been made, with a new roof installed in 2021, offering an excellent starting point for the conversion.

Externally, the property is complemented by attractive surrounding grounds, offering purchasers the opportunity to design and create outdoor spaces tailored to their own vision, whether for lawned areas, terraces or outdoor entertaining. There is also potential to create a garage, subject to the appropriate consents, with parking discreetly positioned to the rear of the property, preserving the outlook and sense of space. The location is particularly compelling. Set in one of Todmorden’s most desirable rural enclaves, celebrated for its scenic beauty and immediate access to the countryside. From the doorstep, there are numerous country walks, bridleways and scenic routes, including routes towards Stoodley Pike and the surrounding Pennine landscape. Despite its rural feel, the property remains conveniently located close to Todmorden town centre, offering a range of shops, schools, cafés and rail services, while the vibrant and much-loved town of Hebden Bridge, with its independent boutiques, restaurants and cultural attractions, lies just a short drive away.
