A barn that has been converted into a three-bedroom home that sits in the Saddleworth countryside has gone up for sale for more than £1m.

The unique family home sits in a small hamlet of the Harrop Green conservation area in Diggle and boasts four acres of land including manicured gardens, water features and panoramic views of the countryside.

The property which has come to market by Fine and Country, is being advertised on the property website, Rightmove, with an asking price of £1,100,000.

Inside, the property is comprised of an entrance hallway with stairs to the first floor, a dining room, a sunroom, a lounge, an office/potential fourth bedroom, a kitchen and diner and a utility room.

The dining room is described as "the heart of the home" as it features wooden beams, double doors to the sunroom and doors to other rooms in the home.

The kitchen was only recently refurbished and has been fitted with a range of units and a breakfast bar with Victorian-style tilling.

Meanwhile, the lounge has a feature fireplace with a stone hearth and a dual-aspect window overlooking the views of the valley while doors through the sunroom lead to the gardens.

Up the stairs to the first floor, there are three "good sized" rooms with fitted wardrobes and a family three-piece bathroom suite.

The master bedroom also has its own en-suite.

Outside, there is ample parking for cars and the potential for annexed accommodation in the garage, which was once used as a cattery.

Rightmove describes the property as sitting in "extensive" and "stunning" mature gardens with vegetable patches, water fountains, flowerbeds and paved seating areas.

"The magnificent garden would impress the likes of Alan Titchmarsh", the listing continues, as the current owners live off the land and grow their own produce of rhubarb, peas, tomatoes, strawberries, apples and plums.

There are a further three outbuildings, a greenhouse and an adjoining paddock outside which could be used as stables for horses.
