Priory Lane, Penwortham, PR1

Perfect for a first-time buyer searching for that ideal balance between charm, convenience and value, this well-kept home is tucked into one of Penwortham’s most desirable residential spots. It’s a rare chance to step straight onto the ladder in a location known for strong community feel, outstanding schools, and easy access to Preston and beyond.

This home has been thoughtfully maintained and offers a surprising amount of space across two floors.

Step through the front door into a wide hallway that leads to a welcoming lounge, where a large front window brings in plenty of natural light. The brick-style fireplace and soft colour palette give the room warmth and personality, creating a great space to relax or host.

To the rear, the kitchen and dining area span the full width of the property and are arranged in a sociable open-plan layout. The kitchen includes a good range of cupboard space, room for full-size appliances and a practical tiled floor, while the dining area comfortably fits a table, perfect for family meals or entertaining.

From here, a side door leads to the rear boot room, a handy area for coats, shoes, and access to the garden.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom is bright and airy, easily fitting a double bed and storage, with views out over the quiet street and an original feature fireplace.

Bedroom two is a double room and is currently used as a music and gaming room. It also has built-in cupboards, dual-aspect windows and another original feature fireplace.

Bedroom three works well as a single room, nursery, or home office.

The bathroom is fresh and neutral, with a white suite and a shower over the bath, ideal for everyday ease.

Outside, the garden is a real bonus - mainly laid to lawn, with a paved seating area and timber shed to the rear. There’s more than enough room for pets, summer barbecues, or just enjoying the sunshine. With its private and enclosed layout, the garden is especially appealing for young professionals or couples planning to grow into the home over time.

Penwortham continues to be in high demand for good reason. The area offers fantastic walkable access to independent shops, cafés and takeaways along Liverpool Road, while still sitting just over the river from Preston city centre. There’s no need for a car here, though if you drive, you’ll find strong local connections via the A59, A582, and M6. For rail users, Preston Station is less than ten minutes away, providing direct trains to Manchester, Liverpool, and London.

Families and couples will appreciate the excellent local schooling, with both highly rated primary and secondary schools nearby.

At the weekends, green spaces like Hurst Grange Park offer a quick escape to nature, while local pubs and community events help make the area feel welcoming and lived-in.

This combination of lifestyle, location and value makes the property an excellent first home, with the space and surroundings to grow into for years to come.
