Salwick, Preston, Lancashire

An incredibly impressive period property, improved and extended by the current vendors to offer 6000 sq. ft of superb accommodation. Internally, respectful improvements have been made to period features such as coving, deep skirtings and large bay windows whilst bringing more modern fittings throughout, to upgrading the property beautifully.
Carefully planned and improved, this wonderful property enjoys open living space and separate reception rooms. The most recent addition is currently used by the vendors as a workshop and salon but this could easily be altered to create an annex accommodation which is the perfect distance from the main living areas, making it ideal for those needing multi-generational living.

This beautiful property sits in around 2.5 acres of fabulous gardens and grounds. The property has attractive gateposts leading onto a gravel drive and a large parking area ahead of the front door and up to the garage.

WHAT OUR VENDORS SAY

"We started our property search in 2014, looking for a house with space both inside and out, when we found Salwick Hall, we saw so much potential. Over the years we have made this wonderful place our own, modernised, refurbished and extended to create our home, whilst allowing the house to show the beautiful period features which make it so special. We have made many happy family memories here, it is now time for the next custodians to enjoy the Hall as we have."

The front door opens into an entrance vestibule and further part glazed double doors open into an impressive entrance hall with an attractive staircase rising up to the first floor. The entrance hall gives a more formal feel to the house and sets the tone for this impressive property. The character features include tall ceilings with coving and the Clifton family Coat of Arms can be found in the ceiling giving a unique focal point to the hallway. The doors lead to various reception rooms and the main lounge offers fantastic views through the bay windows across the impressive gardens and grounds. This beautiful room enjoys a wood burning stove set in a stone hearth and the period features continue through this stunning room.

A bathroom and library are positioned on the opposite side of the entrance hall. The bathroom has an attractive roll top bath, two wash handbasins and WC. This bathroom has been fitted by the current vendors and is respectful of the period feel of the property.

The library has a feature fireplace and is fitted out with a range of shelving and provides a lovely space to be enjoyed. Doors open into the sitting room / dining room which has double doors leading out to the front of the property which provides lovely views across the gardens and grounds.

The sitting room / garden room has a television inset in the wall and attractive ceiling lines. This room is found off the dining kitchen giving an open plan type feel to the kitchen, dining and sitting room areas – this space therefore is likely to be the hub of this wonderful home.

The kitchen includes a range of wall and base mounted kitchen units along with a complimentary central island. Integrated appliances include combi oven and warming drawer, two further ovens, induction hob with an extractor over, integrated fridge and freezer and wine cooler. This room is open to the dining area which is a bright room and enjoys views over the gardens and grounds. The staircase rises leads up to one of the bedrooms / games room.

A more recent extension includes a boot room which has a door to the front of the property and a further office /workshop has access through from the side of the property. This is in conjunction with the shower room and further reception room. As separate access can be provided to both the office /workshop and the additional reception room. All of this ensures that the property could easily be used as an annex type facility.

The inner hall on the extension leads through to an immense garaging facility. This has electric up and over doors and is substantial in nature.

The main staircase rises up to the first floor where there are four bedrooms in total. The two front bedrooms enjoy views over the front gardens and grounds, each of these bedrooms enjoys an ensuite facility.
