4 bed detached house for sale

Whittingham Lane, Preston, 2 PR3

Built in the late 1950's, this family home ticks many boxes for even the most discerning of buyers.

For one, the location is perfect for those seeking semi-rural living with stunning countryside on the doorstep, yet close enough to other larger villages and towns only a 5 -10 minute drive away. The village of Goosnargh is always popular with its local community feeling, proximity to schools and village amenities.

With superb frontage, this imposing home is tucked back on a double width plot with incredible parking and well manicured front lawned gardens edged with mature trees giving seclusion. The outlooks both front and rear are picturesque with the extensive rear garden offering uninterrupted field views. Perhaps one of the key features that would make anyone want to buy this beautiful home.

This home is perfect for families and even multi-generational living as the impressive space over 2400 sq ft can accommodate larger families. Furthermore, the extended 4.8 x 4.5m family room behind the garage gives potential to have a 5th ground floor bedroom or annexe ideal for co-habiting families or those with older children. Equally, it could also lend itself as an office or business space for those working from home. The possibilities are endless.

I love the size of the living space and the choice of different rooms to enjoy on the ground floor. The reception hallway feels inviting as soon as you come in from the front porch entrance and the turning stairs to the first floor add further appeal. From the hallway, there are reception rooms both to the left and the right creating a double fronted home. The dining room overlooks the front driveway and is a good size space for either a formal dining room or a sitting room. The living room, the largest of the receptions has an attractive bay window with pleasant view across the immaculate front lawn and greenery. It feels so tranquil and peaceful and furthermore, the part glazed glass doors to the kitchen living space mean there are dual aspects to the garden too making the space feel extensive and creating a sociable layout.

The kitchen living room has been opened into one entire space which works brilliantly for modern family living and the current owners have maximised the living space for a family to enjoy as to one end is a sitting room with French doors opening to the garden.

The open aspects from the kitchen are truly breath-taking with open field views beyond the already extensive garden. With a well equipped family kitchen with ample storage and an island with seating area to one side, the space work well for breakfast and dining space. Are integrated to include a double oven, gas hob, dishwasher and fridge freezer. A door gives access to the convenient utility space and then an inner hallway leads round to a ground floor shower room, WC and pantry area before accessing the annexe room. Integral access is also available to the 7.6 m length garage, an ideal space for storage.

All of the bedrooms are double rooms and from the spacious landing area, there is access to the balcony, a pleasant addition to the charm and characterful feeling that this home offers. There's ample space on the landing to have a reading area or office space.

With an enviable plot with extensive gardens to the front and rear, this home is truly unique. Additionally, the current owners have maintained the gardens beautifully and created two generous flagged patio areas for outdoor entertaining and dining and a curved lawn edged with stone sets. The initial garden is deceptive as a plum slate walkway leads through a pergola to a further extensive lawned garden beyond, ideal for those with children as there is ample space for outdoor pursuits. The current owners have kept the hedge low to the bottom of the garden to maximise the incredible outlooks across the neighbouring fields.

This delightful home will be sure to be snapped up quickly, so do not hesitate to get your viewings booked early. Offered with no chain delay
