Rawstorne Road, Penwortham

Crafted by the esteemed Lawrence Rawstorne in the distinctive Arts and Crafts style, this charming two-bedroom semi-detached residence is rich in character and architectural appeal. Situated on the highly sought-after, tree-lined Rawstorne Road, the property represents a fine example of the traditional homes for which Higher Penwortham is renowned.

Beautifully presented throughout, the home offers spacious and versatile accommodation with an open-plan layout perfectly suited to modern family living. The welcoming living room enjoys views over the front garden and retains a wealth of original features, including an attractive cast-iron fireplace surround and decorative dado rail. Double wooden sliding doors with stained-glass detailing open seamlessly into the impressive family kitchen, creating a wonderful flow between the reception spaces.

The heart of the home is the extended open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area. The kitchen is fitted with a Belfast sink, electric oven and hob, integrated microwave, and a peninsula breakfast bar providing seating for four. A striking pitched ceiling with Velux roof windows floods the space with natural light, while French doors open directly onto the rear garden. The adjoining dining and sitting areas provide an ideal setting for both everyday family life and entertaining guests, with delightful views across the beautifully established gardens.

Complementing the ground floor accommodation is a practical utility room with plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tall fridge freezer, together with a cloakroom/WC featuring a traditional high-level toilet. An understairs cupboard, accessed from the dining area of the kitchen, provides excellent additional storage space, ideal for household essentials and everyday items.

To the first floor, the property offers two generous double bedrooms and a beautifully appointed four-piece family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a particularly attractive room, featuring a cast-iron fireplace surround, dado rail, two fitted wardrobes, and an adjoining dressing area. Originally configured as a third bedroom, this space could easily be reinstated, allowing the property to return to its original three-bedroom layout if desired. The second bedroom also benefits from fitted wardrobes, providing excellent storage.

The spacious bathroom is fitted with a roll-top bath, separate shower cubicle, wash hand basin and traditional high-level WC, perfectly complementing the character of the home.

Externally, the property is approached via gated access leading to a private driveway providing off-road parking. Established cottage-style gardens adorn both the front and rear, creating a picturesque setting. The rear garden enjoys a high degree of privacy, being not overlooked, and offers a variety of seating areas from which to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the beauty of the surrounding planting and changing seasons. Two garden sheds provide useful additional storage.

Offered for sale with no onward chain, this exceptional home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a character-filled Arts and Crafts property in one of Higher Penwortham's most desirable locations, with the added flexibility of converting back to a three-bedroom home should additional accommodation be required.
