Detached house for sale in Hoyles Lane, Preston, Lancashire PR4

Overview

A Fabulous, Flexible Family Home - Perfect For Large, Blended Or Multigenerational Families. This substantial six bedroom detached has been extended and improved to create a stunning social space, ideal for family get-togethers or entertaining.

There’s plenty of reasons why you might have a larger than average family but sadly if you’re looking for a bigger home, the choice can be quite limited. Around 1 in 5 UK homes have four or more bedrooms but very few have more than 5 bedrooms...

So it’s great to see a substantial family home that not only has six bedrooms but is also in absolutely fabulous condition. At 157 Hoyles Lane it really is a case of the quality matching the quantity!

It’s been transformed by the current owners who’ve owned it for a little over 10 years. In that time they’ve added a two storey extension at the rear - not that you’d notice from the street or the gated, resin bound front drive.

But whilst the property looks the same from the front the extension has allowed both floors to be transformed, creating a luxurious home perfect for larger families.

There’s a large resin bound drive with space to securely park a fleet of cars behind electric gates.

You enter a wide and welcoming hallway with beautiful Indian sandstone flagged flooring and a wide feature staircase. It’s here that you’ll catch your first glimpse of the stunning social space at the rear - which connects a large family room, dining room, kitchen and sun room.

It doesn’t matter whether you’ve a large brood or there’s just the two of you - you’re going to want to spend your time in this fabulous space.

The kitchen has stylish Martin Moore handmade wooden cupboards, quartz work surfaces and top of the range Miele appliances - budding Masterchef’s are sure to be inspired!

Everyone else will just love spending time together in the spacious and sociable open plan area which gives great views of the south facing back garden.

This fantastic home could be perfect if you’ve got an older relative living with you as there’s an ensuite double bedroom at the rear. It’s next to the front reception room (which could be the perfect place to slip off and relax in peace) so it would be easy to turn this into a self contained home within a home.

The versatile and thoughtfully designed layout is also great if you work from home, there’s a handy home office next to the kitchen so you’re close to the kettle but can nip off to make a call or do some work.

The office is next to a utility room (with w.c.) that’s been created by converting the rear half of the built in garage - the front half being used for storage.

They’ve used a little of the back garden to create the rear extension but you wouldn’t guess - there’s still plenty for everyone to enjoy.

Outside there’s a porcelain patio seating area and a glazed outdoor cooking area with dedicated space for a BBQ with an outdoor stainless steel sink with hot and cold water. There's no excuse not to get friends and neighbours round for a summer party!

There’s also a large lawn for the kids to play on and a wooden summerhouse.

Upstairs has five bedrooms (four of them with ensuites). The master bedroom suite is particularly impressive, having a gorgeous ensuite bathroom, built in wardrobes and a linen room.

If you have younger children, school run stress will become a thing of the past as Cottam Primary School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is less than a 10 minute walk away.

Miller Green, is a 2 minute walk away and Cottam Village Green is opposite the school, a lovely green space featuring the Kings Maze and sculptures by local artists.

You don’t have to go far for your daily essentials. There’s a Co-op foodstore, conveniently located on the way to the school - so just a short walk away.

Older kids have a little further to travel to Ashton Community Science College (another “Good” school) but it’s only 10 minutes in the car or a similar bike ride away.

If you need to head into town to hit the shops or catch up with friends, it takes less than 20 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 convenient location, less than 10 minutes drive to the M55 and the M6.

This substantial family home really is something special - and not just because of its unusual size. It’s been thoughtfully transformed and updated to create a luxurious high quality family home

It’s great to see how a traditional family home can be extended and improved to keep pace with our busy modern lives - and to keep up with the very latest designs and specifications.

There really is something for everyone.

There’s plenty of room to get everyone together or welcome friends and family for a party. But there are also plenty of options when you want to escape to relax or do some work.

I’m expecting this impressive family home to attract plenty of interest from those in need of somewhere with plenty of room, without having to compromise on quality.
