The Hillocks, Croston PR26

Churcher Estates are proud to present this magnificent five-bedroom detached family home, set within the highly desirable and picturesque village of Croston. Town Bridge Barn is a truly exceptional example of a barn conversion, combining rustic character, grand proportions, and contemporary comfort. Extending to over 3,000 sq. ft. across three floors, this beautiful home sits within private gardens and enjoys peaceful open countryside views.

Croston is one of Lancashire's most sought-after villages, beloved for its charming blend of historic architecture, boutique shops, welcoming pubs, and strong community spirit. The village benefits from highly regarded local schools, scenic walks along the River Yarrow, and excellent transport connections via Croston train station and nearby road links to Preston, Liverpool, and Manchester. It is a place that perfectly captures the essence of rural village life while remaining wonderfully convenient for commuting and everyday needs.

Stepping through the front door, you are greeted by the first of two hallways. This entrance hall leads directly to the lounge and also provides internal access to the garage. Finished with elegant parquet flooring, oak doors, and soft lighting, the entrance sets the tone for the home's warm and welcoming atmosphere. Beyond the lounge lies a second internal hallway, giving access to all other ground floor rooms and the staircase to the upper floors.

The living room is an outstanding space in both size and character - a room designed for family gatherings and relaxed entertaining. Flooded with natural light from dual-aspect windows, it creates a wonderful feeling of openness and warmth. The focal point is the feature fireplace with a solid oak mantle, giving the room a welcoming, homely atmosphere. Neutral décor, soft carpeting, and an open layout make this room as suited to cosy evenings by the fire as it is to lively social occasions.

Accessed from the internal hall, the second sitting room offers a quieter retreat and enjoys views over the garden - perfect for reading, watching films, or simply unwinding at the end of the day. The separate study, tastefully finished with wood panelling, provides an ideal home office or creative space. A convenient ground-floor WC adds practicality to the layout, catering perfectly to family life.

At the rear of the property lies the heart of the home - an expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area, full of natural light and brimming with character. The kitchen combines rustic textures with modern design, featuring exposed brickwork, tiled flooring, and a large central island complete with gas hob and extractor. The wide array of cabinetry and generous work surfaces ensure both style and functionality. The adjoining dining area accommodates a large family table, making it the perfect setting for family dinners or entertaining guests. Dual windows and a stable-style door lead out to the rear patio, bringing the outdoors in and filling the space with countryside light. Adjoining the kitchen is a versatile laundry and utility/pantry room - ideal for additional storage and everyday convenience.

Ascending to the first floor, a light-filled landing leads to four beautifully appointed double bedrooms. The main bedroom features a direct door to a luxurious en-suite bathroom, which includes a beautiful free-standing bath. This space feels elegant yet inviting, providing the perfect sanctuary to unwind at the end of the day. The second bedroom en-suite features a shower over the bath, ideal for guests or older children, while the remaining two double bedrooms are equally generous, each finished in soothing tones with large windows and plenty of space for furniture.

On the top floor, the fifth bedroom is a spectacular space that perfectly showcases the property's architectural beauty. With exposed beams, vaulted ceilings, and one of the barn's signature circular windows, this room exudes both drama and warmth. Skylight windows add further brightness. A shower room and walk-in wardrobe complete the top floor layout. This level is ideal as a guest suite, a teenager's haven, or even an additional living space or studio.

Externally, Town Bridge Barn enjoys a beautifully landscaped setting. The cobbled driveway provides ample parking and leads to the integral garage. The rear garden offers a wonderful balance of privacy and open views, with a large lawn, mature hedges, and a stone-paved patio perfect for summer dining and entertaining.
