Barton Lane, Preston, PR3

Liberty House was built in 2020. An inviting home which has won the award in 2000 for the Best New Build as voted by the readers of Country Home and Interior Magazine.

This characterful home, really doesn't look like a new build and sits very quaintly on a quiet countryside lane sharing the location with only a handful of properties. Modern living with a rustic, earthy design. From the use of crystals scattered within the foundations to the natural build materials, this home has a happy boho vibe.

If you are wanting to feel rural, yet still be able to commute to work / schools, then the delightful position of this property will suit you well. Commuting links are within a 10 minute drive from the property, as are local primary and high schools and other amenities.

The front of the property is deceptive. The true size of the property reveals itself on entering through the front door, where the layout flows freely from the open plan hallway with glass floor to ceiling windows and walkway flooded with natural light from the front. Wooden steps take you to a lower level kitchen family living room. Two walls of glass provide attractive garden outlooks.

Finished to exceptional standards with lots of attention to detail throughout, the ground floor also has a cosy lounge / snug with wood burning stove and feature window overlooking the garden, a boot room/ utility room with its own side entrance. Further attached annexe with glass link to the main house complete with its own shower room and bedroom 4 / office space and own entrance and attractive garden outlooks. The annexe part is such a versatile space which lends also as a home office or gym or even a hobby / craft room. The entire ground floor benefits from underfloor water sourced heating.

The kitchen is fitted in a country kitchen style with a modern twist to include a central island with breakfast bar and has an open plan living area with corner log burning stove and two glass walls, one with bi-folding doors to the patio and the other full glass floor to ceiling wall with impressive garden views.

Upstairs, the homely and cosy design continues with vaulted wooden ceilings and bespoke solid wood flooring. The master suite steps up from the landing to a split level generous space with feature window to the garden and open plan access to a fabulous en-suite and dressing room complete with bespoke open storage. Two further double bedrooms boasting their own en-suite shower rooms, makes this an ideal choice for families. There's also is a convenient family bathroom with a deep fill egg bath tub.

The striking point about the setting is the privacy and secluded feeling you get as soon as you walk into this home. The gardens are well manicured with a little babbling brook to the bottom end and green aspects beyond. Mainly laid to lawn with a patio extending from the family kitchen living room and steps up to a walkway around the annexe. There is a summer house overlooking the adjacent field where lovely sunsets can be enjoyed.

Would suit a variety of buyers from couples and families alike, families with older teenagers, upsizers or downsizers or two households cohabiting.

You really have to see this property to appreciate it fully so get your viewing booked early to avoid disappointment.
