About this property

Internally, the home showcases a wealth of period detail, including decorative ceiling coving, panelled walls, and feature fireplaces, complemented by generously proportioned rooms and a well-considered layout. Externally, the property provides secure off-road parking for multiple vehicles via gated access, as well as an expansive single garage offering potential for conversion into additional accommodation or an annexe (subject to planning consent). The substantial rear lawned garden enjoys a peaceful and secluded aspect—perfect for family living and outdoor entertaining. Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the scale, quality, and character this remarkable home has to offer.

This exceptional property offers over 3,100 sq. ft. of well-designed living space, seamlessly combining elegant proportions with practical family living. Upon entering, a welcoming vestibule leads into a grand entrance hall with panelled walls and a central brass fireplace featuring embedded Lancashire Roses, immediately conveying the home’s character and scale. To the front, a bright bay-fronted sitting room provides a calm retreat with an inset gas fireplace and marble surround, while a larger rear-facing lounge benefits from a large box bay window overlooking the garden and an inset electric fireplace.

From the entrance hall, French doors open into the expansive open-plan snug/kitchen/diner—the true heart of the home—offering a stylish, functional space for both everyday living and entertaining, with direct access to the garden, creating a seamless connection with the outdoors. The kitchen area boasts a large range of base and eye-level units in a Shaker-style design, with a range of integrated appliances and breakfast bar seating.

A practical utility room and ground-floor WC adjoin the kitchen, while a separate front-facing office provides an excellent space for working from home. This room could potentially be converted into an additional ground-floor bedroom, with the WC adapted into an en-suite bathroom, subject to the needs of prospective buyers.

The first floor offers five well-proportioned double bedrooms arranged around a spacious central landing. The principal suite includes a large bedroom, walk-in wardrobe, and contemporary three-piece en-suite shower room with tiled flooring, a Velux skylight, and cubicle mains shower. Bedrooms two and three are generous doubles, while bedrooms four and five are equally well-sized—perfect for guests or growing families. A stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms and features a panelled bath, separate shower, pedestal wash basin, and dual-flush WC. Part-boarded loft storage, additional eaves storage, and loft access provide further convenience.
