Hollowforth Lane, Woodplumpton PR4

Some properties give you a new home this one gives you the chance to create an entirely different way of life.

Set within the rural landscape of Woodplumpton and alongside the Lancaster Canal, this remarkable holding brings together three individual homes, extensive grounds of approximately 2.5 acres including gardens, meadowland and a pond in one private setting.

The canal is an established part of Woodplumpton’s landscape, with Hollowforth Aqueduct itself forming part of the historic Lancaster Canal route.

For the right family, that changes everything. Parents, grown-up children and grandparents can have their own front door, their own space and their own independence, while still sharing the kind of everyday moments most families normally need to travel for.

Children can grow up with grandparents nearby. Sunday lunches become spontaneous. Helping with childcare, dogs, gardens or simply life becomes easier.

And despite the rural feel, Woodplumpton remains well connected, with access towards both the M55 and M6, while the Preston Western Distributor has improved links into the wider motorway network.

At the heart of the holding is Home Barn, an impressive family home extending to approximately 3,431 sq ft, with the scale and flexibility to work beautifully for multigenerational life.

The ground floor centres around a substantial 25'11" kitchen/breakfast room and an equally impressive 24'11" living room, proper family spaces with room for everyday life, long lunches and everyone gathering under one roof.

There is also a useful utility room and WC, while two generous ground-floor bedrooms, both with en-suite facilities, create excellent options for grandparents, older children or guests who want their own independence.

Upstairs, the accommodation becomes even more flexible. A superb 25'11" family room gives you another major reception space, ideal as a cinema room, teenagers’ lounge, games room or somewhere for the grandchildren to take over.

There are two further bedrooms, including an impressive 19'7" bedroom with dressing room, plus additional bathroom facilities, excellent storage and an exceptionally generous landing.

Outside, a detached garage adds yet more practicality.

Home Barn is the ready-to-enjoy family base of the entire holding, big enough for different generations to have their own space, yet designed around the moments that bring everyone back together.

Then there is The Granary. At approximately 548 sq ft, this one-bedroom property currently works as a holiday let and adds an immediate layer of flexibility to the estate. Originally the farm’s piggery, it has since evolved into self-contained accommodation with a living room, kitchen/diner, bathroom and substantial first-floor bedroom.

It could continue generating holiday income, provide independent accommodation for a relative, become a private guest house or potentially offer further possibilities in the future, subject to any necessary planning and other consents. It is a relatively small building with an unusually important role in what the whole estate can become.

Finally, there is Moon’s Farmhouse, the part of the story waiting for its next chapter.

A traditional thatched farmhouse with approximately 3,202 sq ft of accommodation, it is substantial, characterful and ready for comprehensive renovation. The existing footprint already tells you what is possible: A huge family room, separate kitchen, an impressive living/dining room, utility, study and four bedrooms, with two en-suites and further storage upstairs.

This is not the finished house. That is precisely the opportunity.

Restored properly, Moon’s Farmhouse could become the statement home of the entire holding, a farmhouse shaped around the next generation while retaining the character that makes the setting special.

Historic England records Moon’s Farmhouse on Hollowforth Lane, along with a historic barn close to the farmhouse, reinforcing the long-established character of this site.

Across the wider grounds, lawns, gardens, meadow areas and the pond create the space for a genuinely outdoor family life. Morning walks can begin at home. Children have room to explore. Dogs have space. Summer gatherings can spill outside. Different generations can retreat to their own homes without ever feeling disconnected from one another.

Owned within the same family for generations, Hollowforth Lane now presents the chance for another family to write the next one.

Three homes. One landscape. And the increasingly uncommon opportunity to build family life around each other, rather than miles apart.

Property Summary:

A unique multi-generational rural property comprising three individual homes, extensive gardens and grounds, meadowland and a pond, close to the Lancaster Canal. The holding includes Home Barn, a substantial approximately 3,431 sq ft four-bedroom family home; The Granary, an approximately 548 sq ft one-bedroom self-contained property currently used as a holiday let; and Moon’s Farmhouse, an approximately 3,202 sq ft traditional thatched farmhouse offering a significant renovation opportunity. With independent accommodation for multiple generations, income or guest potential, extensive outdoor space and convenient access towards Preston, the M55 and M6, this is an exceptionally rare opportunity to create a private multi-generational family estate in rural Woodplumpton
