*NO CHAIN DELAY * The former Ormerod House (now demolished) and the Thursby name are synonymous with the history and wealth surrounding the local parishes of Worsthorne and Hurstwood.
Situated at the extreme north west of the township of Cliviger in an area entirely rural in nature lies this hidden gem which offers a rare opportunity to purchase a former coach house within the hamlet of the private Ormerod Estate.
Although the former Ormerod House mansion has been demolished the remaining outbuildings have been converted and now comprise of six totally individual residential properties, which include The Coach House.
This cluster of unique properties lies in the heart of open countryside with mature woodland surrounding and is approached through a stone pillared entrance by the former Lodge House and along a private driveway to the Ormerod Estate.
