The house

A 5-bedroom home in Preston.

KO1148 -The Old Rib Farm sits comfortably within its generous plot. Its stone walls reflect centuries of occupation, while careful restoration and later additions allow the house to support modern life without altering its essential character. Longridge village lies only minutes away, yet the house feels entirely separate, shaped by land, history, and continued care.

The Property 

Extending across approximately 1.55 acres, this outstanding Grade II listed home provides substantial accommodation arranged across three levels, with each room formed within the original structure or sensitively adapted over time. Exquisite leaded windows look onto courtyards, lawns, and terraces, ensuring the landscape remains part of daily life.

Alongside the main house, a detached annexe introduces further independence. Its own entrance, kitchen, and living space allow extended family, guests, or longer-term occupation independently of the main residence. The gardens surrounding both buildings provide privacy and definition, creating an environment that feels enclosed and settled.
