A Distinctive Residence of Style, Space and Sophistication

Welcome to a truly exceptional home, where timeless elegance meets contemporary design, all set within an idyllic countryside backdrop. Positioned on a generous plot surrounded by rolling fields and open vistas, this exquisite property offers the rare combination of peaceful rural living with the convenience of being just moments from the village community, excellent transport links, Preston City Centre and the Fylde Coast.

This bespoke luxury residence has been meticulously crafted and maintained to the highest standards, showcasing premium finishes and state-of-the-art features throughout. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered – from stunning Italian floor and wall tiling and underfloor heating across the entire property, to premium ‘Neff’ kitchen appliances, high spec ‘Villeroy & Boch’ bathroom suites, solar panel installation, and an electric vehicle charging point – this home effortlessly blends luxury, practicality, and sustainability.

Ground Floor: A Grand Entrance & Exceptional Living Spaces
Step into an impressive entrance hall, immediately greeted by an abundance of natural light and a sense of refined quality. A bespoke solid oak staircase with contemporary glass balustrade forms a striking centrepiece, complemented by a discreet understairs storage cupboard.

To one side, a stylish guest cloakroom/WC, further storage, and internal access to the double garage add to the practical layout. A quiet home office offers the perfect space for working from home, with a window to the side aspect. Across the hall, a separate formal lounge provides a cosy yet sophisticated retreat, featuring a beautiful bay window and statement lighting to create a welcoming and cosy atmosphere.

The Heart of the Home: Breathtaking Open Plan Living
Undoubtedly the highlight of this spectacular home is the expansive open-plan living, dining and kitchen space stretching across the full width of the rear. Designed with family life and entertaining in mind, this incredible area is flooded with natural light thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows and wide-span bi-folding doors that open onto the landscaped garden.

The show-stopping kitchen is a chef’s dream, complete with an extensive range of high-spec cabinetry, striking marble worktops, two integrated ovens, built-in microwave and warming drawer, induction hob with modern extractor, full-height fridge freezer, integrated dishwasher, and an instant boiling water tap. A large central island provides additional workspace, generous storage, and a sociable breakfast bar.

Adjacent is a superb utility room, designed as an extension of the kitchen with additional built-in fridge freezer, extra sink, space for laundry appliances and even more storage – with access to the side of the property.

First Floor: Luxury and Light in Equal Measure
Upstairs, the impressive galleried landing is illuminated by a large picture window, perfectly framing a stunning crystal pendant light. Two built-in storage cupboards add further practicality.

The master bedroom suite is a true sanctuary – spacious, serene, and bathed in natural light with views across the fields to the rear. A luxurious ensuite features twin rainfall showers, his-and-hers sinks, WC, and there is a private dressing area with high-quality fitted wardrobes.

Three additional generous double bedrooms are beautifully appointed, each benefiting from tall ceilings, lovely outlooks, and ample space for furnishings. The sumptuous family bathroom completes the floor, comprising a freestanding bath, large walk-in shower, WC and vanity basin – all finished to the same high standard.

Second Floor: The Perfect Guest or Teenager’s Retreat
The top floor offers a flexible fifth large double bedroom – ideal for guests, an older child or even as a second home office. With Velux windows offering the best panoramic views and an ensuite shower room of premium design, this floor adds an extra layer of versatility to this already expansive home.

Outside: Curb Appeal and Countryside Charm
Externally, this property is as impressive as its interior. A large private driveway offers extensive parking and turning space, while the electric up-and-over door provides access to the integrated double garage. There is also opportunity to install electric gates if desired with suitable wiring already installed. Gated access leads down both sides of the property to a beautifully landscaped rear garden, complete with a large porcelain tiled patio – perfect for entertaining – and a well-maintained lawn that backs onto open farmland. South-west facing, the garden enjoys sunshine throughout the day and offers exceptional privacy.
