Bryning Lane, Newton, Preston, PR4 3RL

Steeped in history and brimming with character, this truly special cottage occupies a generous wrap-around plot in an idyllic setting, offering a rare opportunity to own a home with a fascinating past.

Believed to pre-date 1786, the property is shown on William Yates historic Lancashire map published that year, indicating it was already established by the late 18th century.

Rich in local heritage, the cottage is understood to have originally served as the coach house to Highgate Hall, adding another captivating chapter to its story.

Today, the property beautifully blends its period charm with welcoming living spaces, where exposed beams, character features and a wealth of original appeal create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout.

Every room reflects the homes heritage while offering comfortable accommodation suited to modern family life.

One of the cottages most intriguing features is the remarkable carved wooden fireplace surround in the lounge.

According to the family of a previous owner, this unique piece was presented as a gift from the Indonesian government and was carved to represent their interpretation of what a traditional English cottage should look like.

While this story has been passed down through previous owners rather than formally documented, it adds a wonderful talking point to an already distinctive home.

Outside, the property enjoys an impressive wrap-around plot with beautifully established gardens, providing a wonderful sense of space, privacy and endless opportunities to enjoy the surrounding environment.

Whether relaxing in the sunshine, entertaining guests or simply appreciating the peaceful setting, the gardens are a true extension of the home.

Properties of such character and individuality are rarely available.

Offering centuries of heritage, a unique story and an exceptional plot, this enchanting cottage is a home that simply must be viewed to be fully appreciated.Disclaimer You may download or store this material for your own personal use and research.
