Station Road, Croston, PR26 9RN

Not everything is what it seems… The traditional terrace being offered has beautifully appointed accommodation but behind the façade is a gardener’s dream, as No 78 has a garden which includes a patio, garden shed, three lawn areas and a large pond - when you finally reach the end of the meandering path. Whether it’s for play, entertaining, or green fingered enthusiasts, this definitely must be viewed to understand our comments fully. A uPVC door with leaded glass panel opens into the entrance porch which has a laminated floor, pendant lights and a part glazed door opening into the cosy lounge.  This charming room is beautifully presented with decorative panelling and a feature raised log burner on a stone flag, beamed mantle over and stone hearth.  The window to the front provides natural light with a pendant light and wiring for wall lights for evening ambiance.  The floor has a laminate finish and extra warmth can be provided by the central heating radiator.  From here a door leads past the bottom of the twisted staircase into the dining kitchen. The dining kitchen is full of character having an extensive range of wall and base painted Shaker style units to include a space for a range cooker with a beamed mantle over, plumbing for an automatic washing machine, and vented for a tumble dryer.  The features to this room are plentiful, from the York stone flag floor, Belfast sink with swan neck mixer tap, wooden work tops, the beamed ceiling having inset spot lighting, the vegetable wicker baskets and finally the brick niche display.  There is ample space for a sizable dining table and chairs or, if you prefer, a comfy seating area.  A window sits behind the sink overlooking the patio and an opening into the conservatory gives you the versatile option for a semi open plan living dining kitchen. The uPVC conservatory has a laminated floor, ceiling light and French doors exit into the rear patio and superb garden. The staircase leads to the first landing area where the smaller of the two bedrooms can be found, having a window to the rear, part panelled walls, radiator and built-in wardrobes.  The bathroom is unusually spacious and includes a freestanding bath beneath the beamed ceiling, separate shower cubicle with power shower, low flush Wc and a pedestal wash hand basin.  There is tiling to splash areas, a radiator and a window to the rear. A few more steps take you to the second landing with spindle balustrade, where the loft access can also be found and the principal bedroom.  The final latch door into this room leads you to a well-proportioned bedroom with fitted robes to either side of the chimney breast and a window to the front, a pendant light and radiator finish the room beautifully. So, now that the accommodation has been presented, time to consider the options available to you in what you are about to read and see.  No 78 has a wonderful outdoor space; initially, from the kitchen window it would appear to have an attractive patio with gravel and flagged seating area and fenced to either side, with some mature shrubs including a hydrangea with circular stone cobbled surround.  However, as you continue to walk past the brick store, passing the large garden timber shed and under the ivy clad trellis, the garden opens into three separate lawned areas with mature shrubs and borders and, finally, arrives at a large pond.  The whole area offers enormous potential for a keen gardener, children’s play area or, if you like entertaining, plenty of scope for al fresco dining and the on trend outdoor kitchen!! Viewing is strictly by appointment through Maria B Evans Estate Agents We are reliably informed that the Tenure of the property is FreeholdThe Local Authority is Chorley Borough CouncilCouncil Tax Band is BEPC rating is CPlease note:Room measurements given in these property details are approximate and are supplied as a guide only.
