About this property
32B Bank Street is a spacious top-floor apartment tucked along Rawtenstall’s historic cobbled high street, right in the heart of its thriving conservation area. If you’re looking for a place where you can step out of your door and straight into independent shops, stylish bars, cafés and a lively market-town atmosphere, this is the perfect base for you. Whether you’re visiting as a couple, with friends or as a small family, this characterful apartment gives you comfort, convenience and the charm of Lancashire life all rolled into one. Climb the private staircase to your own top-floor hideaway and step into a light, inviting hallway.
A few steps take you up into a generous open-plan living space where you can settle in, slow down and feel right at home. Two deep Chesterfield sofas wait beside the wall-mounted Smart TV, perfect for film nights or lazy mornings, while large windows bring in the sunshine and frame lovely views over the rooftops to the surrounding hills. It’s a beautiful reminder that the countryside is never far away. The kitchen has everything you need for effortless self-catering, whether you’re rustling up breakfast before a day of exploring or cooking with treats from the local deli. The dining table is the ideal spot for sharing meals, a bottle of wine and plans for tomorrow’s adventures.
Both double bedrooms are calm, comfortable spaces with soft lighting and thoughtful touches. One benefits from its own en-suite shower room and wall-mounted TV, giving an added sense of privacy and convenience. The family bathroom includes a bath with a shower over, great for an elegant soak at the end of the day. Outside, you’ll find off-road parking to the rear, a real bonus in such a central location. From the doorstep, Rawtenstall offers plenty to enjoy as you can browse boutiques and vintage shops, hop on the heritage East Lancashire Railway for a nostalgic steam-train ride, or grab coffee and pastries from one of the independent bakeries just moments away.
For days out, there’s something for everyone. Burnley invites you to wander the grand rooms and landscaped parkland of Towneley Hall, enjoy peaceful boating lakes and gardens at Thompson Park, and delve into the region’s industrial heritage at the atmospheric Weavers’ Triangle. In Rochdale, you can stroll around the scenic shores of Hollingworth Lake, explore engaging exhibitions at Touchstones Museum, or wander the woodland ravines and waterfalls of Healey Dell Nature Reserve. Manchester is also within easy reach of museums, galleries, live entertainment and the vibrant streets of the Northern Quarter, full of street art, music and incredible food. Choose 32B Bank Street for a well-located, welcoming base where town convenience meets Lancashire’s rolling countryside, an ideal spot for a memorable northern getaway.
Rawtenstall is a welcoming Lancashire town surrounded by the rolling landscapes of the Rossendale Valley, offering a blend of independent shops, heritage attractions, and easy-going northern character.
