Semi-detached house for sale in Greyfriars Crescent, Fulwood, Preston PR2

Overview

Perfect For Couples & Young Families, A Substantial Semi You Can Turn Into Your Dream Home. It’s in great condition with a lovely mature garden and is in a fantastic family-friendly spot, close to the countryside and a choice of good schools.

This substantial 1930’s semi has been very well looked after and is now an ideal blank canvas where you can move in and then make it your own. It's ideal for couples and young families looking to make memories in a versatile home on a quiet street.

Traditional semi-detached houses like this have been the ideal choice for couples and young families for decades. And the versatile layout works just as well in 2024 as it did when this was first built in the 1930’s. It’s already been extended but has plenty of potential if you did want to extend again or improve it further.

For now there’s no need for any dramatic changes as it’s in a neat and tidy condition, where you could move in and then update it on a room by room basis.

The traditional ground floor two reception room layout has been opened up to create one more sociable space. It’s created a large room which runs from front to back, with light flooding in from both the bay window in the lounge and large window in the dining room.

The fitted kitchen isn’t huge but a rear extension has been added, creating a versatile family room you get to down a couple of steps, with patio doors opening to the back garden.

The multi-level back garden is lovely. You can tell it’s been lovingly cared for by the current owners. There’s something for everyone, with a patio seating area, and a selection of mature borders and beds.

Heading back inside, you may expect to find two double bedrooms and a box room upstairs.

There’s actually three double bedrooms (two large ones and one smaller double/large single), thanks to the two storey extension at the rear.

That extra space has also allowed the family bathroom to move to where the box room would normally be at the front, and the addition of a smaller 2nd bathroom with a separate w/c.

The front garden has neat hedges and shrubs that runs down the side of the house.

There’s room to park a couple of cars in front of the separate single garage.

As this is a family home it’s reassuring to know that there’s a choice of “Outstanding” or “Good” primary schools nearby. Queen's Drive Primary School is closest, it’s only 2 minutes in the car or an 8 minute walk away.

And if you have older kids, Fulwood Academy is opposite Queens Drive Primary, next to the leisure centre.

You don’t have to go far for your daily essentials. There’s a handy One Stop shop just round the corner on Black Bull Lane.

If you need to head into town to hit the shops or catch up with friends, it takes less than 15 minutes to drive to the city centre.

It’s the same distance to the station, where fast and frequent West Coast Mainline trains will take you to London and Glasgow, along with more local northwest services to Liverpool and Manchester.

And if you’re heading further afield by car, it’s in a really convenient location, less than 5 minutes drive to the M55 and the M6.

This versatile semi is ready for you to move in and make yourselves at home - with the scope and space to extend again or make improvements to meet your family’s needs.
