Detached Period Property | Quarter-Acre Plot | Elevated Position with Open Views | no chain
In need of modernisation yet bursting with character and possibilities, The Cottage offers spacious and flexible living. On the main floor you’ll find a generous lounge with views over the rear garden, a dining area leading into a summer room, three front-facing bedrooms, a kitchen, and a family bathroom.
The basement level provides additional flexible accommodation — currently an extra bedroom with its own entrance, shower ensuite, and access to the garage — making it perfect as a home office, annexe, or guest suite.
Set on a quarter-acre plot with a gated driveway, garage, and extensive gardens, the property offers endless scope to landscape and enjoy. Adding to its appeal, the home is within walking distance of a well-stocked Spar, and just a short stroll to two bus stops at the Watling Street Road end of Cromwell Road. These provide regular services every 20–30 minutes into Preston, via different routes — one through Royal Preston Hospital, Asda Fulwood, and Booths Fulwood. From Royal Preston Hospital, there is also a direct half-hourly service to Chorley Hospital from the rph.
