There are certain homes in Greater Manchester that attract a lot of attention either for their design, amenities or location - and this particular property has all three. The stunning farmhouse is located in the rural town of Littleborough in Rochdale and is on the market for £1,625,000.
Named The Farmhouse, the five-bed home is nestled in the foothills of the picturesque south Pennines with remarkable panoramic views of Hollingworth Lake and the surrounding nature reserve.
Its classic yet impressive architectural design fits right in with the the rest of Littleborough's stone-built buildings that make up the town. Resembling a fancy spa retreat, the beautiful abode has many luxury amenities including an outdoor pool and a giant ball pit.
