Description
Positioned within a smart, modern development, this detached four-bedroom home delivers over 1,600 sq ft of thoughtfully arranged accommodation across three floors, perfectly suited to busy, career-focused couples balancing work, school runs and family time .
Step inside and the proportions immediately reassure. The bay-fronted lounge offers a calm, separate retreat from the energy of the kitchen, ideal for quieter evenings, films with the children, or simply a peaceful moment at the end of the day.
Across the hallway, the home opens into a generous 19ft kitchen/dining room, unmistakably the social hub. There’s space for weekday breakfasts before the school run, laptops open at the dining table after work, and relaxed weekend hosting with friends.
French doors draw in natural light and open directly onto the garden, creating that seamless indoor-outdoor flow that makes summer evenings easy and keeps younger children within sight while they play.
A separate utility room keeps laundry and everyday organisation tucked away from the main living areas, because streamlined routines matter when time is tight.
The first floor hosts two well-balanced bedrooms, including a principal suite complete with dressing room and private en-suite shower room. It’s a layout that gives parents breathing space, somewhere to reset before the next busy day. The additional bedroom is ideal for school-age children, guests or a dedicated home office, reflecting the importance of hybrid working and strong digital connectivity for this lifestyle .
The top floor adds another layer of flexibility, with two further rooms and an additional shower room. As children grow, this level naturally evolves, a teenager’s domain, a quiet study zone, or a private guest suite when family visit.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden offers manageable lawn space, enough for play and summer gatherings without dominating your weekends. A detached garage and driveway provide practical parking, well suited to modern family vehicles and commuting patterns .
Fulwood remains one of Preston’s most desirable residential areas, known for its strong schooling options, green spaces and excellent access to commuter links including the M6 and M55. It’s a location that supports ambition while retaining a genuine community feel.
Offered chain free, this is a home ready to move straight into, generous, flexible and built around the rhythm of modern family life.
A home that works as hard as you do.
