Description
Nestled amidst the serene landscapes of the Trough of Bowland area, this expansive four-bedroom villa, also known as Brook Lodge, is a striking stone-built retreat offering an authentic taste of rural life in the UK. As a global real estate agent, I frequently come across diverse properties, but this one is distinctly captivating, particularly for those considering relocation from overseas. The natural allure of the Lancashire countryside draws you in, promising tranquility away from bustling urban centers, yet conveniently positioned just a short drive from Junction 33 of the M6 motorway, making travel to larger cities quite manageable.
Located on Oakenclough Road, Scorton in Preston, this villa provides a sense of rural seclusion across a sprawling 0.28-acre plot. The attraction of living here is not just the house itself but the lifestyle it offers. For expats or international buyers, Preston is a charming city with a rich history, delightful countryside, and a welcoming community. The climate here is typically British, with mild summers and cool, damp winters, offering a genuine European experience.
The entrance to Brook Lodge sets the stage for a home that's both welcoming and sophisticated. As you step through the front door, you find yourself in a spacious reception hallway. Known for its quality wooden floors and a bespoke staircase, it's evident that the builders put great care into every detail of this home. There's a front study perfect for those who work remotely or need a peaceful space for contemplation, accented by a window giving a lovely front view of the property.
Further along the hallway, a snug with French doors invites you to explore the patio area, ideal for enjoying the seasons' changes. In addition, the hallway also features a cloakroom, providing practical utility without compromising the home's spacious feel.
At the heart of this family villa is an impressive kitchen-dining-living area. This open space is perfect for family gatherings or entertaining guests, with its central wood-burning stove offering warmth and ambiance during cooler months. The kitchen speaks to modern functionality with a generous selection of wall and floor units crowned with granite worktops. For the culinary enthusiast, the included high-quality Bosch and Gorenje appliances will inspire creativity in meal preparation.
When you enter the upper level, the open landing directs you to a spacious master bedroom, an oasis of its own. The en-suite attached features a double walk-in shower, WC, and a wash basin, designed for convenience and a touch of everyday luxury. Three other double bedrooms offer plenty of space, whether you need a guest room, kid's room, or an additional home office. A well-appointed family bathroom serves this floor and rounds off the living accommodations.
Brook Lodge is more than a house; it's an investment in a lifestyle filled with potential and promise. The home's design is rooted in both tradition and quality, evident in its bespoke joinery and use of solid oak throughout. Soundly built, the home stands as a testament to skilled craftsmanship and enduring design.
Living here not only means owning a beautiful property but also enjoying what the local area has to offer. Scorton is quaint, yet has a lively rhythm with local eateries and shops that bring a community flavor to daily life. The nearby bows and trails of the Trough of Bowland are perfect for weekend adventures or relaxing strolls, ideal for those who love the outdoors.
For families, living in a villa such as this offers ample outdoor space. The garden is ready to be filled with laughter and play on sunny days or transformed into a personal oasis for those with a green thumb.
In terms of logistics, Preston offers a balanced mix of conveniences with schools, health centers, and places of worship commonly found within reach. At the same time, the city delivers a taste of British heritage and festive events, allowing expats to immerse themselves in local culture.
For those seeking the perfect blend of pastoral tranquility and modern living, Brook Lodge stands ready. Whether you're ready to embrace rural life fully or transitioning from an urban environment for a slower pace with picturesque views, this villa is poised for its next chapter. Don't let the opportunity pass by—it's not just a property deal; it’s an invitation to an enriched lifestyle.
