4 bedroom detached house for sale

This beautifully presented family home on Nookfield enjoys a peaceful, tucked‑away position in the heart of Goosnargh, one of the village’s most desirable residential pockets. Discreet yet easily accessible, the property is approached via two separate driveways, leading to a generous integral double garage which features its own loft storage — ideal for hobbies, bikes, or extra belongings.

Stepping through the front door, you are welcomed into a bright and inviting hallway. To the ground floor there are three flexible reception rooms, a well-equipped kitchen, a utility room, and a convenient WC. The lounge is a truly warm and sociable space: large enough to entertain guests, yet cosy thanks to a log burner, and with French doors that open out onto the tranquil rear garden. The kitchen provides plentiful wall and base units, an electric oven, a four-ring gas hob, dishwasher and space for an American-style fridge freezer. Glazed doors from the kitchen lead out to the garden, and another door connects directly to the utility room and the garage, giving practical flow for day-to-day living.

The second reception room, currently used as a dining room, easily accommodates a family-sized table and also features French doors to the garden, while the third room, used as a music room, could transform into a study, playroom, or relaxation area depending on your needs.

An open, sweeping staircase leads to the first floor, where you’ll find four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own ensuite, while the remaining three bedrooms share a family bathroom.

Outside, the wraparound gardens offer a peaceful retreat. There’s a storage shed for garden tools and equipment, decorative planting creating seasonal interest, and sweeping countryside views that give a strong sense of tranquillity and space. It’s the perfect setting for children to play, for outdoor entertaining, or simply for quiet reflection.

The property enjoys a wonderful natural setting, with an abundance of wildlife regularly visiting the gardens and the field to the rear, including squirrels, birds, bats, toads, hedgehogs, pheasants, barn owls and, occasionally, deer. There is loft space above both the house and the garage, providing excellent additional storage. Externally, remote-control and sensor-activated LED lighting is fitted to three sides of the property, adding convenience and security.

Living in Goosnargh combines rural charm with strong family appeal. The village supports a tight-knit community, with amenities including a post office, pharmacy, hairdresser and a traditional fish and chip shop. There are two popular pubs: The Grapes on Church Lane and The Stags Head on Whittingham Lane. For more relaxed dining, the nearby Ye Horns Inn provides a warm countryside pub-restaurant experience. Families are well catered for by schools in the area: Goosnargh Oliverson’s Church of England Primary School lies right in the village, with secondary school options including Broughton High School, Longridge High School and St Cecilia’s Roman Catholic High School.

Despite its rural feel, Goosnargh is very well-connected. The M6 motorway is easily accessible, offering excellent commuting links to nearby Preston, Manchester, and beyond. On the retail front, while the village itself has a selection of local shops, larger supermarkets and a wider choice of leisure options are just a short drive away in Longridge or North Preston.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, Goosnargh benefits from stunning countryside, walking trails, and easy access to nearby green spaces, including Beacon Fell Country Park. In addition, within a short distance lies the Flower Bowl Entertainment Centre, offering cinema, bowling, dining and family leisure activities.

This property presents a rare opportunity: a spacious, adaptable family home in a peaceful village environment, with schools, transport links, and amenities all within easy reach, yet with the beauty and serenity of the Lancashire countryside on your doorstep.
