4 bed detached house for sale

Button Street, Inglewhite, Preston PR3

Originally constructed as the village police station, Peelers is a distinguished detached residence of notable presence and character, occupying a prime position within the sought-after village of Inglewhite. Retaining the stature and proportions befitting its heritage, the home enjoys high ceilings to both ground and first floors, generous reception space and beautifully maintained mature gardens. With four bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception rooms alongside a conservatory, this substantial property combines timeless elegance with practical family living. A full re-roof has been undertaken in 2026, further reinforcing the care and investment afforded to the home.

Set on the edge of the village yet within easy reach of the main road and motorway network, Peelers offers the best of both worlds - peaceful rural surroundings with excellent connectivity. Beacon Fell, the Forest of Bowland and the Ribble Valley are all close at hand, placing open countryside, scenic walks and unspoilt landscapes right on the doorstep.

Approached via a tarmac driveway leading to a generous parking area and double garage, the home immediately conveys a sense of substance and quiet authority. The front door sits beneath an open porch and opens into an entrance vestibule, from which a further door leads into the principal sitting room.

The sitting room enjoys dual aspects to the front and side, allowing natural light to enhance the sense of space, while a brick fireplace provides a traditional focal point. The adjoining dining room, positioned to the side, connects seamlessly to the conservatory through a glazed door, creating a natural flow ideal for both family gatherings and entertaining.

The conservatory is a particularly attractive addition, framing lovely views across the mature gardens and the fields beyond. Patio doors open directly onto the stone terrace, allowing the interior to extend effortlessly into the outdoor space during the warmer months.

A separate lounge benefits from windows to two elevations and features a woodburning stove set within a fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen is a bright and welcoming room overlooking the rear gardens and open countryside. Fitted with a range of wall units, it is centred around an Aga which provides both warmth and character. An electric hob, provision for a dishwasher and oven, a one-and-a-half bowl sink and drainer, and a shelved pantry positioned just off the kitchen ensure practicality sits comfortably alongside charm. The boiler is located within the garage.

The staircase rises to a spacious first-floor landing leading to four well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys views to the rear, fitted wardrobes and an en-suite comprising bath, WC and wash basin set within fitted cabinetry. Bedroom two includes fitted wardrobes and a wash basin within a vanity unit, while bedroom three offers views to the front along with fitted wardrobes and bookshelves. Bedroom four also faces the front and incorporates a wash basin within a unit.

The family bathroom is generously appointed with a bath, separate shower, bidet, wash basin, WC and heated towel rail, with the airing cupboard housing the cylinder also located here.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The large double garage features up-and-over doors and provides space for two vehicles as well as coal store, Wc and the oil fired single boiler. To the rear, mature gardens unfold in a series of thoughtfully arranged spaces, including an expansive stone patio ideal for outdoor dining, additional seating areas, sweeping lawns, a pond and established shrubs and planted borders. The grounds provide both privacy and versatility, with the option available to purchase only part of the garden by separate discussion with the selling agents.

Peelers is a home of distinction - rich in character, well maintained and set within an enviable rural village setting. With its generous proportions, historic origins and proximity to some of Lancashire’s most celebrated countryside, it presents a rare opportunity to acquire a residence of both presence and enduring appeal.
