This modern four-bedroom detached house, built in 2020, sits at the end of a private lane within a small exclusive development. The ground floor is arranged for family life with a bay-fronted living room, study, and a large open-plan kitchen/diner with breakfast bar and sliding doors onto the private garden. The whole of the ground floor benefits from underfloor heating for comfortable year-round living.
Upstairs offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, an en-suite to the main bedroom and a generous four-piece family bathroom. Two rear bedrooms enjoy countryside views towards Beacon Fell Country Park. Practical features include an integral garage, gravel driveway with parking for several vehicles, double glazing and modern fitted kitchen with quartz worktops and integrated appliances.
Externally the plot is large for the development, with a paved patio, raised beds and lawn — a manageable private garden for family use and outdoor entertaining. Connectivity is strong: excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and easy access to the M6/M55 and A6 for commuting. Local amenities include a primary school, canal, pubs and nearby further-education options.
Notable negatives are factual: the area records a high local crime rate and council tax is described as expensive. The location is an ageing rural neighbourhood rather than a busy urban centre, so rural living benefits should be balanced with those local considerations.
