A super charming character home set in its own courtyard setting in highly attractive gardens and grounds with the potential to purchase the paddock area by separate negotiation. This beautiful home is positioned off Bilsborrow Lane in a tucked out of the way position. The property is set in highly attractive gardens and enjoys views across the open countryside towards Bilsborrow Hall.
The location is rural in feel, yet has great access onto the main road and motorway network making it an ideal location for those who commute. Bilsborrow village itself has a shop, school and is home to the locally renowned Flowerbowl entertainment centre and Barton Grange garden centre. To the north is the market town of Garstang and to the south the City of Preston where there are further amenities. Beacon Fell and the Forest of Bowland are just a short drive away giving plenty of opportunity to enjoy the outdoors.

The property is approached on a private road off Bilsborrow Lane and wraps around the house immediately in front, the property is found on the left hand side. You turn into an original cobblestone parking area ahead of the front door. It is easy to see from here the attractive character nature of this property. There is an open porch where the front door is positioned and opens into the entrance hall.

The entrance hall has views out to the front of the property and an attractive staircase which rises to the first floor. This is an extremely welcoming space and has a WC off.

Beyond the entrance hall is a fabulous dining room which has a big window overlooking the gardens and grounds. An attractive fireplace with a log burner provides a lovely focal point to this room.

Beyond the dining room there is a further reception room. This area combined with a further bedroom and an ensuite has some annex potential should this be required by a purchaser.

This lounge has vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and underfloor heating along with bifold doors which lead out to the side of the property and again make great scope for outdoor entertaining. There is a separate access to this area of the property and this large lounge could be separately accessed or used in conjunction with the main house.

The bedroom space that has been created on the ground floor gives great flexibility for a range of buyers. Fitted wardrobes, underfloor heating and a spacious shower ensuite are included. The ensuite includes a wet room shower, wash handbasin set in a unit, WC and heated towel rail.

The hub of this attractive rural home is likely to be the breakfast kitchen which has an opening through to the lounge. The breakfast kitchen includes a range of wall and base mounted units with a granite work surface over. There is a range cooker with an extractor over, integrated dishwasher along with a sink and mixer tap and an undercounter fridge. There are bi-fold doors out to the rear of the property. This area is open to the lounge which also has bi-fold doors out to the rear of the property onto the patio and gardens beyond. The bi-fold doors in here and in the breakfast kitchen ensure that there is great scope for outdoor entertaining.

Beyond the kitchen area is a rear hall which gives access to the side of the property and a really useful utility space and boot room which has been upgraded by the current vendors to include a range of kitchen units and cloak area. There is a large porcelain sink, fridge freezer, point for a washer dryer and also a dog shower. The floorcovering in here is in stone. Beyond the utility room is a playroom / study which has views out to the courtyard area.

The staircase rises from the entrance hall to the first floor landing where a walk-in wardrobe has been created by the current vendors giving very useful storage. There are three bedrooms on this level in total, the principal bedroom has a juliet balcony with super views out to the side of the property. There is also a range of fitted wardrobes.

The second bedroom has views out to the side of the property, there is also a range of fitted wardrobes. The third bedroom has views out to the other side of the property and again includes a range of fitted wardrobes. Bedroom four has views out to the rear.

The family bathroom includes a double ended bath with a shower head fitting, wash handbasin set in a unit and a WC.

The stone set courtyard area provides space for plenty of parking and there is a further parking area at the side of the property which is closed with a fence and timber gate. The gardens and grounds are largely down to lawn with attractive shrub beds and mature trees given a country garden feel.

Beyond the main gardens is a paddock area which is available by separate negotiation, this area is shown in blue on the site plan within these sales particulars.

This property offer so much potential with scope to extend subject to gaining any necessary consents.
