3 bed bungalow for sale

Dowbridge, Preston PR4

This detached bungalow on the sought-after Dowbridge in Kirkham offers a rare combination of character, space, and versatility, with a large rear garden, a unique spiral staircase leading to a balcony, and open views across surrounding fields. Finished with thoughtful details throughout, this is a home that offers both charm and practicality in equal measure.

Stepping through the stained-glass entrance door, you’re greeted by a welcoming hallway with exposed floorboards, a radiator, and a spindle staircase rising to the first floor.

To the front, the lounge is filled with natural light via a large double-glazed window, complemented by a coved ceiling and radiator, creating a cosy yet spacious family hub. Opposite, the front bedroom also features a bay window with fitted blinds, exposed floorboards, and a ceiling fan.

The dining room flows naturally into the conservatory, which provides a delightful garden outlook. This space, with tiled flooring and a radiator, is ideal for year-round use, whether as a sitting area or garden room.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units beneath granite worktops, complete with a porcelain inset sink. A suite of integrated appliances includes an induction hob, microwave, double oven, dishwasher, fridge freezer, and even dedicated wine and bottle racks. Double rear windows allow plenty of light while enjoying garden views. The utility room provides further wall and base units, plumbing for a washer, space for a dryer, and direct access to the garden.

The ground floor bathroom is finished in a timeless style, with a shower cubicle, thermostatic shower, corner bath with mixer tap, porcelain sink and WC, a large fitted wall mirror, cast iron-style radiator, and spotlights.

Upstairs, the landing has storage and leads to two further bedrooms and a study. The main bedroom enjoys a double-glazed side window, radiator, and ceiling fan, with the bonus of a modern en-suite featuring a shower, basin, WC, tiled flooring, and ladder radiator. The second upstairs bedroom is similarly well-proportioned, with radiator and ceiling fan.

The study/office is a flexible space with eaves storage and French doors opening out onto a balcony. This is where the property really stands apart – an iron spiral staircase leads gracefully down to the garden, and from this elevated position you can enjoy open countryside views.

Externally, the rear garden is a fantastic size, mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and well-established borders. An Indian stone patio provides the perfect spot for entertaining, with the spiral staircase adding an architectural flourish. To the side is an attached garage with an electric door.
