A substantial five-bedroom detached period home set on a large corner plot in a quiet Preston cul-de-sac, minutes from local shops, schools and the seafront. High ceilings, original fireplaces, parquet flooring and tall skirtings give the house strong period character, while a later kitchen extension and some modern fixtures provide practical family living.
The ground floor offers formal living and dining rooms, a large extended kitchen with garden access, study/utility space, WC and integral garage. Upstairs the principal bedroom includes an en-suite, with two further doubles and a family bathroom on the first floor, plus two additional bedrooms on the second floor — flexible accommodation for a growing family or home office needs.
Outside, wraparound gardens include lawns, patios, a raised deck and garden sheds — generous entertaining and play space with mature screening for privacy. The plot and room sizes allow scope for further improvement or extension, subject to planning, to increase value and adapt the layout.
Practical considerations: the property is Freehold with EPC rating E and council tax Band E. There is a recorded medium flood risk for the area and some exterior and garden maintenance will be required to fully restore the landscaping. Overall, this is a character-rich family home with good schools nearby and clear potential for sympathetic updating.
