Description
Evenings where the doors open wide to the patio, laughter fills the air, and pizzas bake in the wood-fired oven while the children play on the lawn.
At No.1 The Shires, that lifestyle is not just a dream - it’s an everyday reality.
This is more than just a house; it’s a luxurious family home, designed for modern living and special moments. With only four properties on this exclusive development, it offers a sense of privacy and prestige, while still being perfectly placed for schools, countryside, and the city.
Step through the impressive double-height entrance hall and you’re welcomed into a home made for connection.
The open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room is the true heart of the house - spacious, sociable, and styled for both everyday life and entertaining. The sleek, high-gloss kitchen with its central island makes cooking a joy, whether it’s quick weekday meals or hosting friends.
When it’s time to unwind, the cosy lounge with its feature fireplace and the peaceful second reception room offer plenty of choice. There’s even a dedicated games room, converted from part of the garage - a haven for teenagers, or a playful escape for the whole family.
Upstairs, five generous bedrooms mean there’s room for everyone. The principal suite is a retreat in itself, with its own dressing area and en-suite, while the additional bedrooms and family bathroom create perfect spaces for children, guests, or visiting family.
The garden has been beautifully landscaped with family life in mind. Low-maintenance and thoughtfully designed, it has seating areas for summer dining, a BBQ and pizza oven for parties, and even a covered spot ready for a hot tub. It’s private, practical, and perfect for making memories.
And while the home feels tucked away, surrounded by greenery, you’re only a short drive from Preston city centre, local schools, and the motorway network. It’s a home that balances tranquil living with everyday convenience.
For families who want the space to grow, the style to entertain, and the comfort to relax -this is the home you’ve been waiting for.
