Description
This superb semi-detached barn-style residence offers bright, spacious accommodation with an inviting blend of characterful design and contemporary comfort. Positioned between Longridge and Grimsargh, the home benefits from an attractive rural setting while remaining conveniently close to local amenities. Built just 14 years ago, the property has been beautifully maintained and is presented in excellent condition throughout. With no onward chain, it is ready for immediate occupation.
Tucked away within an exclusive development of just five homes, the property enjoys excellent privacy, generous parking, and a substantial detached double garage. The stone-built exterior and high-quality finish make this an exceptional family home in a highly desirable location.
A shared access road leads to the private gated driveway, where the property sits comfortably within its plot. The extensive parking area provides easy access to the detached garage.
Inside, the home opens into a spacious tiled hallway with access to all ground-floor rooms and the staircase to the first floor. Both the property and its garage benefit from a comprehensive security setup, including an alarm system, PIR motion detection, and front and rear CCTV coverage.
The utility room has space for laundry appliances and a wall mounted gas boiler. There is also a separate ground floor cloakroom, featuring a window to the side aspect, recessed lighting, radiator, and a contemporary two piece suite.
Across the hallway sits the dining room, complete with a front aspect window, ceiling light point, and attractive laminate flooring with doors into the kitchen.
Positioned at the rear of the home, the lounge offers a wonderfully calming setting, enhanced by a contemporary wood burning stove, a rear aspect window, and elegant arched French doors that lead out to the patio.
The kitchen is a standout space, centred around a sleek island and gloss units with quartz worktops, integrated appliances, and a double oven. A stainless steel sink sits beneath a window framing views of the garden, while LVT herringbone flooring adds warmth. The room flows naturally into the dining area.
Upstairs, a generous landing leads to four double bedrooms, all fitted with upgraded triple-glazed Velux windows in white UPVC frames, creating bright and airy spaces. One bedroom is currently used as a craft room. The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room, while the main bathroom offers a four-piece suite in excellent condition.
The rear garden is a true highlight private, substantial, and beautifully landscaped. A patio from the lounge leads to a large log cabin with power, lighting, and a dedicated hot tub supply, making it ideal for leisure or as a home office. Beyond the main lawned area, a semi-circular garden divide leads to a productive section with fruit trees, greenhouse, shed, and raised beds enclosed with protective netting.
The detached double garage is stone-built to match the house and includes an electric up-and-over door, separate consumer unit, lighting, power, and a loft area offering extensive storage.
