Description

A beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached family home, occupying an enviable position within the popular residential area of Lea. Offering bright and spacious accommodation throughout, this attractive property combines comfortable existing living space with extensive outdoor space and exciting potential for further enlargement. With a generous driveway, garage, substantial rear garden backing directly onto the open school fields of Lea Community Primary School, and planning permission already granted for both a double-storey side and rear extension, Thorntrees Avenue presents an excellent opportunity for families seeking a home they can enjoy today while having the scope to further enhance and adapt it for the future.

Internally, the property offers well-proportioned and versatile living accommodation, with a bright and airy living room providing an excellent setting for both everyday family life and entertaining. The room offers ample space for a dining area, while a feature media wall and fireplace create an attractive focal point. Patio doors provide a pleasant connection to the rear garden, allowing plenty of natural light into the room and offering easy access to the outdoor space.

The modern kitchen is well equipped with a range of fitted units, providing useful storage and workspace while offering a practical environment for day-to-day family life. The ground floor is completed by the entrance hall and additional useful storage.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, providing comfortable accommodation for family members, guests, or those requiring space to work from home. A spacious four-piece family bathroom serves the bedrooms and comprises a bath, large walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC, offering both practicality and flexibility for modern family living.

Externally, the property benefits from a generous driveway to the front, providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, together with a garage offering valuable additional storage or parking. To the rear is a particularly impressive enclosed garden, offering a generous expanse of outdoor space for children to play, entertaining, outdoor dining, or simply enjoying the warmer months. The garden enjoys an open aspect directly onto the school fields of Lea Community Primary School, providing a pleasant outlook and an unusual sense of space and privacy for a residential setting.

One of the property’s most exciting features is the planning permission already granted for a substantial double-storey side and rear extension. This provides an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to significantly increase the accommodation and create a larger home tailored to their individual requirements, subject of course to the terms and conditions of the approved planning permission.

Perfectly positioned within the ever-popular Lea district of Preston, Thorntrees Avenue is ideally placed for access to a range of local amenities, well-regarded schools, parks, shopping facilities and excellent transport links. Lea Community Primary School is immediately to the rear, while the wider area provides convenient access to Preston city centre, the motorway network and surrounding areas.

Combining comfortable existing accommodation, an exceptional rear garden, generous parking, and significant scope for future enlargement, Thorntrees Avenue represents an exciting opportunity for a purchaser looking for a home with both immediate appeal and genuine long-term potential. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the position, space and possibilities this property has to offer.

eXp UK are the newest estate agency business, powering individual agents around the UK to provide a personal service and experience to help get you moved.

Here are the top 7 things you need to know when moving home:

Get your house valued by 3 different agents before you put it on the market

Don't pick the agent that values it the highest, without evidence of other properties sold in the same area

It's always best to put your house on the market before you find a property

The estate agent acts for the seller and is there to get the seller the best price possible

Understand the length of time it can take - 14 weeks from when you accept an offer, or have an offer accepted to move in! A long time!

It can get stressful, but speak to your agent and your solicitor and they will put you in the picture
