What Could Be Better Than A CHAIN FREE Family Friendly New Build On A Popular Estate?

How about an immaculate nearly new build, still in showhome condition with all the annoying little snags taken care of and plenty of tasteful improvements, inside and out.

Built by award-winning Tilia Homes in 2019, this superb four-bedroom family home is ready to move into. You won’t even need to lift a paintbrush.

No matter how good the builder, when you buy brand new you always get a few little irritating snags. And you probably have to put up with living on a building site for a while.

Compared to all that hassle, buying nearly new is a breeze. Even more so when the current owners have taken such great care of this 4-year-old home.

Alston Grange is a popular development of high-quality family homes on the edge of Longridge.

It’s in a fabulous location, only a 3-minute drive to the centre of the village or a short walk to be out exploring the open fields.

Betula Drive is a “Hareford” style four-bedroom family home, with a versatile layout, designed for our busy modern lives.

The ground floor has a spacious living room at the front with a beautiful bay window, which floods the room with lots of natural light.

The open plan kitchen / dining room / family room is at the rear and it’s somewhere the whole family will love spending time together.

French doors lead to the back garden, making this the perfect spot for impromptu BBQs or summer entertaining. A handy utility room ensures the kitchen can be clutter-free.

You’ll notice the stylish shutters on both the bay window at the front and the French doors at the rear - in fact the owners have installed them in every room.

The large (100m2) back garden is west-facing so will be somewhere to sit out and enjoy the sunsets.

And the garden is another area where the current owners have made substantial improvements. It’s been thoughtfully landscaped, with low-maintenance artificial turf meaning you can spend your weekends enjoying the garden as a family rather than mowing the lawn.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, the main bedroom having a stylish en-suite,
along with the family bathroom.

There’s parking for three cars on the drive, with a detached single garage that can also be accessed from the garden. If you don’t need it for parking or storing stuff it could be converted into a number of uses such as a home cinema, gym or even a bar!

Alston Grange is a popular, family-friendly estate that’s less than 5 minutes in the car (or a 15 minute walk) from the centre of Longridge.

And Betula Drive was one of the first phases to be built, so you won’t be living on a noisy and messy building site.

Longride is a small market town that will have everything you need on a day-to-day basis. If you’re looking for a greater selection of shops, bars and restaurants it’s only 20 minutes in the car to Preston.

There’s a great selection of “Good” primary schools nearby, with Longridge High School and St Cecilia’s High School both less than 15 minutes walk away.

When you think about it, buying a four-year-old modern home like this makes a lot of sense.

The current owners will have worked through the list of annoying little snags with the builder, leaving you with a top-quality property to enjoy.

Internally it’s still in show home condition…with a much better landscaped garden and stylish window shutters adding some practical class.

If you’re looking for a move-in ready, modern family home - close to the centre of the village with the countryside on your doorstep - you’ll struggle to find something better than this.
