Bay fronted semi have made fabulous family homes for centuries, and this is a fine example.
You can tell it’s going to be good even before you step inside, the super-neat block paved drive (with space to park 3 vehicles) is a tell-tale sign.
And it doesn’t take long to find the property’s period charm. When you step inside the porch you’ll see the lovely stained glass in the original door through to the hall.
The traditional two reception room layout has been opened up to create one larger, more sociable space.
The more modern addition of a spacious conservatory at the rear creates three rooms, each with their own identity and function.
There's the dining room at the front, a living room in the middle and a light and bright playroom for the kids at the rear.
The two reception rooms both have gorgeous original fireplaces with exposed brickwork, the living room having a traditional stove to keep you cosy on a chilly winters night.
The galley kitchen is welcoming and homely, with beautiful emerald green tiles and a Belfast sink contrasting with the more modern fitted units.
Upstairs has two double bedrooms, a single bedroom that would be perfect as a home office, nursery or kids bedroom and the tastefully tiled family bathroom.
The back garden has been equally well cared for. There’s a choice of seating areas, mature planted borders and a small lawn, perfect for play.
The garden isn’t overlooked at the rear as it backs onto the park.
Broughton Pre-School (for children aged 2-8) is located in the park and is only a couple of doors down. You won’t find anywhere more convenient to drop the kids off before heading to work.
It’s only a short walk to the village, where there’s a Co-op foodstore and a choice of places to eat, from the Broughton Inn to Bella Maria or The Pepper Bistro.
If you have school aged children, Broughton-in-Amounderness Church of England Primary School (rated “Outstanding” by Ofsted) is only a 10 minute walk or a 2 minute drive away.
Broughton High School is another “Outstanding” school and it’s even closer, located in the heart of the village.
Broughton is a popular village, due in part to the convenient location less than 15 minutes drive from the centre of Preston and only 5 minutes from the M55 and junction 32 of the M6.
This is a fabulous home that will be perfect for couples and young families to move in and make themselves at home. But it also has the potential to grow with you as a family, with the option to extend above the built in single garage (subject to planning permission of course).
