Introduction
Superb opportunity to acquire a truly exceptional detached stable conversion, situated within private and established grounds. This former stable block to Penwortham Hall, built by John Horrocks and with origins dating back over 200 years, has considerable charm and character. Converted to a dwelling in the late 1970's, the deceptively spacious accommodation briefly comprises: Entrance Hall, Lounge, Dining Room, Family / Garden Room, Study, Breakfast Kitchen, Inner Hallway, Laundry Room. To the first floor are: Four good sized Bedrooms, Box Room, Family Bathroom and a Separate WC. Outside, the delightful garden areas include: cobbled courtyard to the front providing ample off road parking and access to a detached garage. The private rear garden with stone flagged patio is partly laid to lawn with well planted borders of a variety of mature trees and shrubs. The property enjoys a unique, secluded location, yet is very convenient for a comprehensive range of local facilities and is within very easy driving distance of Preston city centre with national road and rail links. Viewing is considered essential, highly recommended and strictly by prior appointment through Smart Move.
