4 Bedrooms Detached house for sale in Woodlands Way, Barton, Preston PR3 | £ 480,000

Property Description

Anyone considering purchasing a new build home north of Preston for a price similar to this one has to have a look at this gorgeous like-new home and compare the quality and value of each. There’s just no comparison. This home may have been custom built some years ago, but the current owners have lovingly and completely refurbished it to a standard unmatched by nearby cookie-cutter new build homes. This home not only looks luxurious, it truly is luxurious.

Instantly upon entering the main living area, the stunning imported Italian porcelain floors gleam throughout the expansive dining lounge and seem to shimmer under the copious natural light provided by the large windows and skylights above. It is immediately apparent that this is no ordinary home and no pretender to luxury. The owner is a custom home builder who took a typical bungalow and created a modern gorgeous home for his family. The quality and high standard of fixtures and fittings just won’t be matched by estate builders at this price.

Anchoring the large dining lounge is a substantial center island with top quality quartz counter tops, an integrated outlet center, integrated dishwasher, sinks and a filtered water system. It’s just a terrific space around which to focus family gatherings, daily meals, meetings, school work and indoor/outdoor entertaining. Eye-catching and unique large pendulum bell jar lights suspend above the island adding a timeless sophistication and a soft light to the clean and simple lines that make this room so appealing to the eye. And the size of the room which opens to the kitchen beyond accentuates the acoustics of the built-in speaker system and puts an exclamation mark on this great room’s claim to the gathering place in the home. There is nothing “standard” about the dining lounge or kitchen or the entire house for that matter.

Even if you don’t love to cook, you’ll love to cook in this kitchen. It has both an electric hob and a gas burner for a wok, extractor fan, plus a Siemens steam oven, regular oven and built-in microwave convection oven, hot boxes for warming plates and food and a large integrated refrigerator and separate large integrated freezer. Seen all of this in a new build estate home lately? Didn’t think so. Oh, but there is much, much more. From the kitchen and the dining lounge there are double glass doors to the back garden partially laid to lawn with the remainder a paved patio and all enclosed by the home, garage, fencing and greenery giving the effect of a private court yard complete with raised flower beds. A substantial shed is attached to the back of the home and out of sight making the patio and lawn area ideal for throwing open the double doors to the kitchen and dining lounge for wonderful summer parties.

Attached to the side of the home is a garage, but like the rest of the home this is no standard garage. It’s ideal for anyone who does contracting, joinery, carpentry, masonry or any kind of building craft. It has a large floored loft area allowing for storage of, and easy access to, tools and supplies. In addition to the space for a car in the garage, the driveway provides space for at least another two or three cars.

Back inside the home, to the rear of the kitchen is a utility room plumbed for a washing machine and off of the dining lounge is a large lounge with highly durable and attractive engineered wood flooring and almost more windows than walls overlooking the front and side gardens. This home benefits from additional privacy because of its location on a corner lot and in a quiet neighbourhood off of the A6, but this location also makes it easily accessible to the M6, M55, Preston town centre and all points beyond. Completing the ground floor are a bedroom and the master bedroom with en-suite with a second door to the hallway which could be more suitably called a mini home spa. Just calling it an en-suite is like calling the Pyramids just a burial site. It’s a fully four piece bathroom which includes a soaking tub with washing wand and lovely lighted box shelving, large shower with motion activated blue lighting and overhead rain showerhead, luxurious Italian porcelain tiles on the floors and walls and a vanity mirror with integrated lighting, demister and, get this, wifi to create a soothing spa-like experience. Can’t you just imagine melting your cares and stress away in this bathroom? Just pull a bottle of wine out of the wine refrigerator in the kitchen and pour a glass of wine before heading into the tub. And you don’t have to worry about spending too much time relaxing because there are two other en-suites in this home. Still thinking about a cookie-cutter new build estate home?

Those two other en-suites are attached to the two additional bedrooms on the first floor. Like the ground floor bedrooms, these are large double bedrooms and, like the rest of the home, benefit from generous natural lighting through a combination of windows and skylights. Both of the en-suites continue with the high end Italian porcelain tiling and fittings and both are large bathrooms with skylights. The lightness and brightness of this home just fosters a similar feeling and attitude when one is in the home. And if the décor, which includes bespoke designer custom Roman blinds, doesn’t make one happy, then certainly the tremendous amount of under-eave storage space will. There are two separate dressing rooms which could also be used for storage, one with a skylight, on the first floor and one which contains a high spec satellite system which one can use to optimize the high speed broadband in this home.

Across the street is a path which leads to walking trails beyond and within walking distance is an excellent chippy. It’s also an excellent starting off point for cycling in the nearby countryside. Schools in this area are Ofsted rated Outstanding and the street and neighbourhood are very safe for children’s play. So, pull away from the muddy characterless new build estate with homes on top of each other like line dancers in a bingo hall and have a look at a unique, luxurious, lovingly refurbished and well-built home you’d be truly proud to call your family’s home.
