Rockcliffe House stands as a truly remarkable residence - an exceptional, bespoke contemporary mansion of rare distinction. Originally constructed in 1891 by Smith & Cross for J. H. Maden, this magnificent home carries the distinguished provenance of a Grade II Listed grand residence of note. Set within approximately 1.7 acres of mature, private grounds comprising formal gardens and woodland, the approach is suitably impressive too: a tree-lined lane leads through an imposing pillared gateway with secure electric gates, revealing a home where exquisite period detail has been beautifully preserved and seamlessly blended with outstanding contemporary styling.
Inside, in addition to all the usual refinements, the property boasts a full leisure suite including pool, sun room, sauna, steam room, changing rooms, home cinema and games room / gym / studio. Throughout this entire home, modern styling and décor has been employed to add to the property's innate grandeur and impressiveness.
Architecturally striking, Rockcliffe House showcases elegant neo-classical influences, from the commanding columned stone portico that frames the entrance, to mullioned bay windows and an ornate balustraded parapet. Throughout, the home conveys a palpable sense of heritage, craftsmanship and enduring quality - a residence designed not only to impress, but to inspire.
The landscaped grounds provide a tranquil and secure setting, enjoying an elevated position with far-reaching southerly valley views. Extending to approximately 1.7 acres, the gardens offer privacy and seclusion, while secure gated access opens to generous parking for numerous vehicles, with ample space for manoeuvring.
Ideally positioned just 20 miles - approximately 40 minutes by car - from Manchester city centre, Rockcliffe House offers the rare balance of countryside serenity and urban connectivity. Beautiful open landscapes lie just moments away, complementing the estate's own grounds, while convenient commuter links place key regional centres including Preston, Blackburn and even Leeds within comfortable reach.
The surrounding Rossendale valley continues to grow in both reputation and amenity, offering a wide selection of quality shops and everyday conveniences. The area is well served by respected local schools, including Bacup & Rawtenstall Grammar School, and is celebrated for its outstanding natural beauty. Expansive moorland, reservoir and hillside walks, a renowned mountain bike centre ranked among the UK's top destinations, a dry ski slope and panoramic vistas stretching towards Manchester - and on clear days even as far as Jodrell Bank Observatory - all contribute to Rossendale's growing appeal as a destination of both aspiration and substance.
Rockcliffe House is, quite simply, a home of stature, elegance and extraordinary versatility - a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark residence within one of Lancashire's most scenic and well-connected valleys.
