Throstle Nest is an exceptional family home, beautifully reimagined under its current ownership and offering a rare balance of refined living and relaxed comfort in one of the Ribble Valley’s most desirable locations. Nestled discreetly below Mellor, the setting is wonderfully peaceful yet perfectly placed for easy access to local schools, shops, and excellent commuter links making it as practical as it is picturesque.
Set back along a quiet country lane, the house enjoys privacy and security behind two separate electric gates in a plot of over 3 acres. A recently laid resin driveway sweeps up to the front of the property, providing generous parking, while to the side, a large covered carport adds further convenience. The home is surrounded by expansive, well-tended gardens with open views across the surrounding countryside, creating a true sense of space and seclusion.
The interior flows with elegance and ease, introduced by a welcoming entrance porch that opens into a striking reception hall offering both a sense of arrival and seamless access to the ground floor accommodation. To one side, a spacious dual-aspect living room with remote-controlled fireplace opens into the snooker room and on to a charming garden room, creating a sequence of entertaining spaces perfect for gatherings both large and small. On the other side, a cosy snug links through to a formal dining room, which in turn connects effortlessly to the heart of the home: the kitchen.
Beautifully appointed and thoughtfully designed, the kitchen is both practical and inviting, ideal for modern family living. Fitted with handmade painted cabinetry, granite worktops, and a full suite of Neff appliances, it also features a Lacanche range cooker, integrated steam oven, microwave, plate warmer, wine fridge, and space for an American-style fridge freezer. A large central island with fridge drawers creates the perfect place to gather, whether for casual breakfasts or evening drinks with friends.
To the rear, a substantial utility and laundry room offers outstanding storage and functionality, with twin washing and drying stations, a central island with a four-drawer freezer, and a dedicated boot and coat area - ideal for busy family life.
Beyond the dining room, a stylish cloakroom and WC lead into a glass-covered walkway, connecting the main house to a secondary entrance and two superbly fitted home offices -perfect for those working remotely. Above, a generous and immaculate attic with Velux window provides excellent storage, accessed by retractable ladder. A separate staircase leads to a private annexe above the offices, offering two bedrooms, a modern bathroom, and a spacious living area -deal for guests, extended family, or older children seeking independence.
The first floor of the main house is no less impressive. The principal bedroom is a calm and spacious retreat, with French doors opening to a balcony that looks out over the gardens and the valley beyond. A bespoke fitted dressing room leads to a luxurious ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower, twin sinks and contemporary styling. Three further double bedrooms each enjoy fitted storage and are served by a beautifully finished family bathroom and a separate linen store.
Outside, the property truly comes into its own. A sun terrace wraps around the rear of the house, offering a lovely spot for outdoor dining, with a pergola-covered lavender walkway leading up to a summer house and garden shed. Beyond lies a recently refurbished, full-size tennis court - an ideal space for both relaxed recreation and more serious play. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature trees, shrubs and established planting that provide colour and structure year-round. A second driveway sweeps up from the lower garden to a further set of electric gates, adding flexibility and ease of access for visiting friends and family.
Throstle Nest is more than a house - it’s a lifestyle. A home where elegance meets ease, where families can grow, entertain, work, and unwind, all in a setting that feels both grounded and exceptional. Viewing is highly recommended with proof of funding required.
