Rockcliffe House is a completely exceptional, bespoke contemporary mansion. Set in approximately 2 acres of mature landscaped grounds, this incredible property is approached via an extended private lane through an imposing pillared gateway off the main road and along a tree-lined driveway. Constructed in 1891 by Smith & Cross of Rochdale, for the original owner J. H. Maden, Rockcliffe House has the unique provenance of a Grade II Listed grand residence of note and showcases retained beautiful period features. Stunning neo-classical architectural aspects include a magnificent entrance way with columned stone porch, mullioned bay windows and fabulous balustrade parapet. Internally, iconic characteristics continue, including the wonderfully elaborate moulded plaster cornice and ceiling rose, in what was originally the propertys grand dining room. Throughout, this extraordinary structure conveys a rich sense of beauty, wealth and quality. As though all this were not already enough however, the current owner has further enhanced the already outstanding features with myriad luxury contemporary elements. These include a stunning pool complex with full changing facilities, entertainment area with superb wet bar and expansive conservatory with bi-folding doors overlooking far reaching views, a dedicated home cinema, sauna and steam room, gym / dance studio and programmable lighting controls with mood settings to most rooms and underfloor heating throughout. Villeroy & Boch bathrooms are married with exquisite marble floors to further adorn the fine grandeur of the internal spaces, while a real sensation of sumptuousness is to be experienced right through the property. The entire property has been interior designed throughout to create wonderful living spaces that are both versatile and opulent in equal measure. Internally, the property offers a wealth of reception, entertaining, sleeping, bathing, recreation and technical zones. Each is perfectly matched to the requirements of demanding contemporary lifestyles, while offering appointments which are both luxuriously practical and visually spectacular. Externally, providing a setting that is both tranquil and secure, landscaped grounds surround the property and offer excellent valley views to the south from an elevated position within a plot totalling approximately 2 acres. In addition to the main house, the property also offers a self-contained, 2 bedroom annexe which is perfect for provision of housekeeping, security, or general staff living areas. This could also of course, alternatively provide ideal extended family or guest accommodation. At Rockcliffe House, only the very best will truly suffice. Situated approximately 20 miles, or just 40 minutes by car from city centre Manchester, Rockcliffe House is ideally located to take advantage of beautiful open countryside which is just minutes away, in addition to the propertys own grounds, while convenient and flexible commuter connections are close at hand too. Similarly accessible, are other regional centres of commerce, including Preston and Blackburn, while even Leeds is within commutable reach. Rossendale boasts a range of amenities, while the town centre offers a range of quality shops suitable for most day to day requirements and the area is also home to good local schools for children of all ages, including Bacup & Rawtenstall Grammar School. The proximity of outstanding open moorland, with reservoir and hillside walks, adrenaline mountain bike centre, dry ski slope and vistas which range as far as Manchester city centre and beyond to Jodrell bank on a fine day, all help to cement Rossendales position as an up and coming area, with already so much to offer in its own right too.
