Nestled in one of Preston’s most prestigious conservation areas, this beautiful home is an exquisite Grade II listed Georgian double fronted home that seamlessly combines historic elegance with spacious contemporary living.
Situated directly off iconic Winckley Square and seconds from the peaceful greenery of Avenham & Miller Parks, this character-rich residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished property in the very heart of the city centre.
Stepping through the welcoming entrance hall, you are greeted by an impressive layout designed for effortless modern living while preserving authentic period charm.
The heart of the ground floor is a generously proportioned living room filled with natural light, alongside an expansive open-plan dining kitchen and family room that provides the perfect environment for cooking, dining, and everyday relaxation.
Completing the ground floor layout for ultimate convenience is a separate dedicated utility room and a downstairs WC.
Ascending to the first floor, the property continues to impress with two extensive, light-filled double bedrooms that offer tranquil retreats with abundant floor space for furniture.
These bedrooms are served by a luxurious four-piece family bathroom suite complete with both a bathtub and a standalone shower.
Outside, the property features a private, wall-enclosed rear courtyard-providing a low-maintenance outdoor haven ideal for morning coffee, alfresco dining, or evening relaxation.
