Set behind a private gated drive in a small community, this stone-built barn-style home offers flexible family living across two floors. The recently modernised interior includes a showpiece kitchen with quartz island, a generous sitting room with wood-burning stove and French doors to the garden, plus four double bedrooms and an ensuite principal. A large detached double garage with power, light and boarded loft adds rare practical storage and parking convenience.
The rear plot is a standout: substantial, private and well planted, it features a powered log cabin currently housing a hot tub (suitable for conversion to a home office), greenhouse, fruit trees and a kitchen garden. Security features include an alarm, PIR detectors and front/rear CCTV. The house is offered chain free and in move-in condition following extensive improvements.
Buyers should note a few practical points: broadband speeds are reported slow, council tax is above average, and some construction details suggest original stone walls with assumed minimal insulation. EPC details are pending. Also, there are contradictory construction dates in the records (modernised 2012 versus older stone fabric) — inspection and survey are recommended to confirm fabric, insulation and services.
Overall this property will suit families seeking roomy, characterful accommodation in a quiet semi-rural location with excellent parking, strong outdoor amenity and good commuter links to Preston. The plot and outbuildings create clear potential for home-working, hobby uses or further landscaping, subject to usual checks.
