3 bed terraced house for sale

Weald Moors Park, Preston TF6

This beautifully presented and immaculately maintained Grade 1 Listed Georgian property dates from 1720 and is named after the architect who is believed to have designed it. Being part of the original Lady Herbert Hospital, this home sits adjacent to the Great Hall, overlooking the courtyard gardens, with a cloistered seating area to the front and patio seating area to the rear, to fully enjoy the sunshine throughout the day

Brief description This stunning, freehold, mid-terrace house was sympathetically converted from the original Preston Trust Home building in the early 2000's and offers easily maintained, energy efficient accommodation, which is bright and airy, featuring high ceilings throughout and elegant sashed windows.

Entered from the cloister, a welcoming hallway bends round to the right with cloaks/WC off. Directly in front of the entrance is access to the full depth lounge, a stunning, spacious room which provides the perfect space for entertaining. A recessed fireplace houses a gas fired wood burning effect stove, creating a cosy and more intimate ambience to the room.

To the end of the hallway is the dining kitchen, again, a large room which is fitted to three walls with a comprehensive range of cupboards and drawers, having contrasting worktops over and complementary tiling. A five burner range is served by a brushed steel chimney style extractor fan. This room also benefits from an integrated dishwasher and refrigerator. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room, with space and plumbing provision for a washing machine and space for an under-counter freezer.

To the first floor, a landing runs along the front of the building, benefitting from several windows which overlook the courtyard gardens. To the furthest end of the landing is the master bedroom, having an archway through to the dressing area, finished with mirror fronted wardrobes. The refitted en-suite has a superb walk in shower, featuring a rainfall style thermostatic shower, close coupled WC and wash basin. This spacious room is finished with elegant floor tiles and a chrome ladder towel radiator.

A door off the landing opens to an inner landing, off which are the other two double bedrooms. Both of these rooms feature rear aspect windows with bedroom three having built-in wardrobes with sliding mirrored doors, adding to the feeling of space. Both of these rooms are served by the well proportioned family bathroom, which features traditional mosaic style tiling, with a traditional bath, WC and wash basin.

Externally, there is a lovely seating area under the cloister to the front, where the courtyard gardens can be enjoyed during all weathers. This property also has use of a patio area to the rear of the house, which overlooks the side gardens, and offers a lovely space to enjoy the morning sunshine.

The home also has a single garage, within a block, having space for roof storage and a parking space in front. An additional allocated space sits at the entrance to the pathway leading to the property.

The occupants of this home are able to enjoy the full two acres of communal gardens and to participate with the gardening if desired. The service charge includes maintenance of the external parts of the building, as well as the building insurance and the upkeep of the gardens.

In short, this provides a unique opportunity to purchase a beautifully presented, spacious, historic, freehold property in a secure tranquil setting amidst mature, manicured gardens, with garage and allocated parking.
