** OPEN HOME EVENT 13TH & 14TH JUNE BETWEEN 12PM-2PM - NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY ** An attractive and deceptively spacious detached single-storey former shippon conversion, occupying a pleasant position within a small courtyard style development in the semi-rural village of Thistleton.
The property has undergone an extensive programme of renovation and improvement by the current owners in recent years, now offering beautifully presented accommodation finished to a particularly high standard throughout.
The accommodation is centred around an impressive open plan living dining kitchen, a fantastic entertaining space featuring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a range of windows and patio doors allowing excellent levels of natural light.
The kitchen has been comprehensively upgraded with quality quartz work surfaces and matching splashbacks, a central island with induction hob and integrated extraction, together with a range of integrated NEFF appliances including double ovens, steam oven, microwave and two fridge and freezers.
The adjoining utility room has also been upgraded to complement the kitchen and provides additional storage and appliance space.
Recent improvements include underfloor heating to the kitchen, dining area, utility and lounge with Karndean flooring running throughout these areas.
The lounge enjoys a dual aspect with patio doors opening onto the gardens, whilst vaulted ceilings, fitted media wall and matching display cabinetry provide character and warmth throughout the living space.
The property also benefits from electric Velux windows with blinds operated via app or remote and a heat recovery ventilation system designed to improve air quality and circulation.
There are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with fitted dressing area.
A second bedroom also benefits from ensuite facilities, whilst the remaining accommodation is served by a stylish family bathroom.
All windows within the property have been replaced in recent years and all fitted blinds are included.
Externally the property enjoys lawned gardens together with ample driveway parking for several vehicles.
A substantial detached garage has also been significantly enhanced by the current owners, now incorporating electric sectional door, underfloor heating, granite tiled flooring, hot and cold water supply, fitted cabinetry with washing machine point mezzanine storage and full insulation, creating a versatile space with potential for a variety of uses subject to any necessary consents.
The property further benefits from a solar panel system with Tesla battery storage together with EV charging provision, helping improve energy efficiency and reduce running costs.
The property is situated within the rural village of Thistleton, conveniently positioned for access to Elswick, Great Eccleston and Kirkham, whilst also offering straightforward access to Preston, Poulton-le-Fylde and the wider motorway network including the M55 and M6.
The area is well regarded for its blend of countryside surroundings whilst remaining convenient for a range of schools, amenities and transport links.
Energy Credentials Lodge Bungalow has been thoughtfully renovated with energy efficiency at its core, featuring a whole-house Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) system alongside 16 solar panels to help significantly reduce energy bills.
Any excess energy generated is stored in the Tesla Powerwall and can also be fed back to the grid via the Feed-in Tariff (FIT), providing a valuable additional income for the homeowner.
An electric vehicle charging point is conveniently located within the garage, ensuring the property is well-equipped for modern, eco-conscious living and future-ready for green-minded residents.
