Ben Rose Estate Agents are delighted to present to the market this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully extended four-bedroom semi-detached home, ideally positioned in the highly sought-after area of New Longton. Offered with no onward chain, this charming property is perfectly suited to families or those seeking more space, and combines character, style, and practicality throughout. Located just a short drive from Preston City Centre, the home enjoys excellent proximity to highly regarded local schools, a variety of shops and everyday amenities, along with superb commuter links via the M6 and M61, making connections to surrounding towns and cities both fast and convenient.

Upon arrival, the entrance porch greets you with original floor tiles, setting the tone for the character that continues throughout the property. From the porch, you step into a welcoming entrance hall that provides access to most of the ground floor rooms as well as the staircase to the upper level. To the right lies a spacious lounge, featuring two large front-facing windows that flood the room with natural light and a beautiful original fireplace that adds a touch of period charm. To the left is a cosy yet versatile snug, warmed by a log-burning fireplace and also benefitting from two large front-facing windows. This room offers flexible usage, whether as a second sitting area, a children’s playroom, or a home office.

At the rear of the property lies the heart of the home—a bright and expansive kitchen, dining, and breakfast room. This space has been thoughtfully extended to create a contemporary and functional layout with an abundance of wall and base units. Modern in design, the kitchen is fitted with a mix of integrated and freestanding appliances including a Range cooker, wine fridge, boiling water tap, integrated oven, freestanding microwave, dishwasher, and ample space for any additional appliances. A generous central island provides breakfast bar seating for four, making it an ideal space for both entertaining and family life. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large under-stair storage cupboard and ample space for a full-sized family dining table. Skylights and full-width patio doors offer an abundance of natural light and seamless access to the rear garden. Just off the kitchen, a good-sized utility room provides additional worktop space, a sink, and room for a fridge-freezer, washing machine, and dryer. A modern WC, fully tiled, completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the spacious landing is bathed in light from a large front-facing window and is currently used as an office space, though it could easily serve as a cosy reading nook. The upper floor boasts four generously proportioned double bedrooms, all with tall ceilings and large windows that allow for plenty of natural light. The master bedroom and second bedroom both feature integrated storage. A well-sized family bathroom completes this level, offering a clean and modern suite with an over-the-bath shower. The loft space is partially boarded, providing useful additional storage.

Externally, the property enjoys a large and private rear garden, bordered by mature shrubs and trees. This beautifully kept outdoor space features a lawn, a pergola for shaded seating, a spacious patio area ideal for entertaining, a log store, and a substantial shed for storage. The front of the property is equally impressive, with a large driveway providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The home is set back behind well-maintained hedging and also benefits from gated side access to the rear.

Presented to a high standard throughout and ready to move into, this wonderful family home effortlessly combines charm and modern living in a fantastic location.
