Haighton Green Lane, Haighton, Preston, Lancashire

Occupying a delightful rural setting in the highly desirable village of Haighton, this individual detached period home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious family residence standing within approximately 0.70 acres (0.285 hectares) of beautifully established gardens and grounds.Surrounded by mature trees and open countryside, the property occupies a wonderfully private and elevated position, enjoying far-reaching views towards Longridge Fell, Winter Hill and across the wider Lancashire landscape. Its attractive period appearance, generous plot and peaceful setting combine to create a genuine sense of arrival, making it particularly well suited to purchasers seeking a country lifestyle without feeling isolated.

Originally dating from around 1880, the property was comprehensively refurbished following its purchase by the current owner in 1992. Works undertaken at that time included a new roof, replacement windows and doors, the construction of a detached garage, the addition of the conservatory, connection to mains water and extensive landscaping works.

Having been a much-loved family home for more than 30 years, the property has been exceptionally well cared for throughout. Although it would now benefit from modernisation to reflect contemporary tastes, it retains considerable character and provides an excellent basis from which a new owner could create a particularly impressive country residence.

The accommodation begins with an entrance porch opening into a welcoming reception hall. There are two spacious reception rooms, each offering generous proportions and the flexibility to provide separate formal and informal living areas.

The fitted kitchen is complemented by a useful utility area, while the conservatory provides an additional reception space from which to enjoy the gardens and surrounding countryside throughout the seasons. A ground-floor WC completes the accommodation on this level.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a separate dressing area and fitted wardrobes, while the remaining bedrooms provide comfortable family or guest accommodation. The bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.

The property is approached via a sweeping driveway, providing extensive off-road parking and turning space together with access to the detached garage. The generous driveway and garage accommodation may also appeal to purchasers requiring additional space for vehicles, storage, hobbies or workshop use, subject to any necessary consents.

The mature gardens and grounds are undoubtedly among the property’s defining features. Extending in total to approximately 0.70 acres (0.285 hectares), the plot includes established lawns, mature trees and hedging, ornamental planting and stone-flagged seating areas positioned to take advantage of the privacy and surrounding outlook.

To the front is an attractive circular garden enclosed by traditional stone walling, while the wider grounds provide ample space for outdoor entertaining, gardening and family recreation.

The open fields beyond reinforce the home’s peaceful rural character and provide wonderful panoramic views across the surrounding Lancashire countryside.

The property is served by a private septic tank drainage system and occupies one of the area’s most appealing semi-rural positions, offering considerable privacy while remaining within convenient reach of nearby villages, amenities and transport connections.

Haighton is a highly regarded rural village, renowned for its attractive countryside, scenic walks and peaceful surroundings. The centres of Longridge, Grimsargh and Preston are readily accessible, providing a wide selection of shops, schools, leisure facilities and everyday services.
For those travelling further afield, there is convenient access to the M6, M55 and M65 motorway networks, while Preston railway station provides direct rail services to Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Glasgow and London.
