4, A LAWTON ROAD, PRESCOT, L35 0PP

This remarkable detached residence offers an extraordinary blend of timeless character and contemporary living, creating a home that feels both elegant and effortlessly liveable.

-[about your new home]- There are homes that look pleasant from the street, and then there are homes that grab your attention and have you stop for a moment before you even reach the gate.

This Lawton Road home is very much the latter. As you arrive at Albany Cottage, the first thing that strikes you is the sense of space and calm.

The house sits proudly within its plot, set well back from the road behind a broad driveway that gently guides you towards the property.

To one side, a beautifully kept lawn stretches out like a green carpet, framed by established hedging and mature planting that gives the entire frontage a sense of privacy and quiet elegance.

It feels less like arriving at a house and more like arriving somewhere that has been truly cared for. The property itself has a timeless presence.

Built in the early 1900's the combination of traditional brick, crisp white detailing and dark timber accents gives the home a distinctive character that feels both classic and welcoming.

Large windows span the front elevation, allowing natural light to pour into the main living spaces while also giving the house a sense of openness.

Even from the outside, you can sense that the rooms within will be bright, generous and full of life.

A charming covered porch sits just beside the main window, offering a sheltered entrance and adding a subtle architectural detail that gives the home a reassuring personality.

The driveway continues along the side of the property, leading through to the rear and towards the detached garage.

This not only provides excellent off road parking but also reinforces the sense that the house occupies a substantial and well planned plot.

What truly elevates the frontage, however, is the garden itself.

Carefully shaped shrubs, colourful borders and mature greenery soften the edges of the driveway and lawn, creating a setting that feels established and peaceful.

It sets an unprecedented first impression before even setting foot inside. The entrance porch alone tells you a great deal about the home's tone.

Bright, elegant and beautifully kept, it feels like a proper introduction rather than a throwaway transition space.

The chequered flooring brings a sense of timeless character, while the natural light pouring in through the windows keeps the whole area feeling fresh and uplifting.

Passing through into the main hallway, the scale of the house begins to reveal itself more fully. The proportions here are generous, but what stands out just as much is the atmosphere.

Decorative walls, carpeting underfoot, elegant furnishings and the sweep of the staircase all combine to create a space that feels composed, graceful and genuinely welcoming.

There is a sense of occasion to it, but never at the expense of warmth, giving the home a heartbeat, the sort of central space that makes the whole property feel coherent and thoughtfully arranged.

From here, the front reception room offers your first real opportunity to pause and appreciate the quality of the interiors.

Positioned to take full advantage of the beautiful front-facing bay window, this is a room that feels both refined and restful.

The decorative glazing within the window adds another note of character, filtering the light in a way that softens the whole room and makes it feel calm from the moment you step inside.

The fireplace anchors the space elegantly, providing a traditional focal point that suits the age and style of the house perfectly. Everything about this room suggests comfort of the highest order.

You can imagine winter evenings here with the curtains drawn, the lamps on, conversation unfolding slowly, or simply the pleasure of sitting quietly with a book in a room that feels settled and serene.

The dining room continues that feeling, but with a slightly different mood. Where the lounge is poised and calming, the dining room feels more expressive and atmospheric.

This is a room with personality, and it carries itself beautifully.

The dimensions allow for a dining table without ever making the room feel crowded, and the styling gives it a real sense of intimacy and occasion.

Candlelight, glassware and good food here will complete your evenings for an intimate family setting.

It could just as easily become the setting for long Sunday lunches, birthday meals, Christmas dinners, or simple weeknight suppers that somehow feel elevated because of the setting.

It is one of those spaces that reminds you how much atmosphere matters, and how much a beautifully arranged room can shape the rhythm of daily life. And then you arrive at the kitchen.

This is, without question, one of the most impressive spaces in the home, and it deserves to be spoken about with the significance it commands. So many kitchens are practical. Some are attractive.

Very few feel as complete, as thoughtful and as genuinely special as this one. It is not simply a room where meals are prepared.

It is the place where your new home opens up, breathes out and becomes something quite extraordinary. The first thing that strikes you is the depth of design.

The cabinetry has a bespoke quality that immediately lifts the room beyond the ordinary.

Painted shaker-style units in beautifully chosen tones create a look that feels classic rather than fashionable, and therefore far more enduring.

The palette is sophisticated but still warm, with pale cabinetry balanced by deeper tones on the island and accent walls, giving the room contrast and definition without ever becoming harsh.

Function is absolutely there, in abundance. The storage is exceptional.

There is extensive cabinetry running through the room, plenty of preparation space, and then the hidden pantry takes things to another level entirely.

The pantry is one of those details that instantly sets this house apart. It feels luxurious, yes, but also deeply practical.

It gives you that sense of a kitchen that can cope effortlessly with real life, whether that means family cooking, entertaining on a larger scale, seasonal hosting, or simply having a place for everything without cluttering the beauty of the room.

At the centre of it all, the island takes on more than one role. It is clearly a practical workspace, but it is also a natural gathering point.

Above, the pendant lighting gives the island just the right amount of drama. It draws the eye upward and helps define the space without interrupting the openness of the room.

Recessed ceiling lights keep everything feeling crisp and polished, while the natural light pouring in from the rear ensures the kitchen never loses its connection to the outside.

That connection becomes even more pronounced as the kitchen opens into the rear dining area.

Positioned right beside the glazed doors, this is a wonderful everyday spot where you can sit with a coffee in the morning or an evening meal as the light shifts across the garden beyond.

It has an ease to it that makes the entire rear of the house feel relaxed and sociable. And then, as if the kitchen itself were not enough, the space flows effortlessly into a lounge area.

It feels less like an add-on and more like the final, crowning chapter of the ground floor.

It takes everything the kitchen begins and carries it through into a space devoted entirely to light, calm and connection to the garden.

The glass roof lifts the ceiling line dramatically, giving the room a sense of volume and airiness that is immediately striking.

Yet for all that light and openness, it still feels grounded and comfortable. The seating arrangement makes it clear that this is not simply a sunroom for occasional use.

It is a proper living space, one designed to be enjoyed day after day, month after month.

The modern stove in the corner gives the room a real sense of year-round usability, introducing warmth, texture and a subtle focal point that balances the expanses of glazing beautifully.

You'll also have the added benefit of a separate utility room, which is ideal for keeping the chores separate from the main living areas, ensuring they remain clutter-free.

Here you'll also find a rear door providing easy access to the garden.

The main hallway remains broad and elegant rather than shrinking into dead space, and the staircase rises from it with real presence.

The ground floor bedrooms offer excellent proportions and flexibility, especially the master bedroom.

With an en-suite and box bay window looking out over the lush garden, it's suitable not only as sleeping accommodation but also potentially as a private guest room depending on your needs.

It is the sort of room that gives the house options, and if you're looking for long-term adaptability you'll immediately recognise its value. Just off the hallway you'll find the family bathroom.

Beautifully presented in neutral tones, this is a spacious room ready for you to unwind.

Offering both a separate bath and shower cubicle, pedestal sink and W/C, this is the ideal place to retreat to after a long day.

The second ground floor bedroom also offers great potential, whether you need to utilise it in its full use as a bedroom or open it up to become a flexible office space, home cinema or gym room.

Stepping out from the rear of the house, you'll discover the show-stopping rear garden.

It unfolds gradually, almost like another room of the home, but one defined by open sky, mature greenery and the quiet sense of space that only well-established gardens seem to achieve.

The first thing that becomes apparent is the balance of the layout.

A broad lawn stretches out across the centre, creating a wonderful sense of openness that immediately draws the eye toward the far boundary.

The grass is beautifully kept, forming a generous expanse that feels both calming and versatile.

It is large enough to host family games, summer gatherings or simply provide that uninterrupted sweep of green that makes a garden feel truly relaxing to look out onto.

What gives the garden its real character, though, is the planting that frames it.

Mature hedging lines the boundaries, creating a natural wall of greenery that brings privacy and a sense of enclosure without feeling restrictive.

Trees and shrubs have clearly been cultivated over many years, and their presence gives the garden a depth that newly landscaped spaces rarely achieve.

Perhaps the most appealing thing about this garden is that it manages to feel both spacious and intimate at the same time.

It is large enough to host gatherings, celebrations or family activities without ever feeling cramped, yet the careful planting ensures there are quieter corners and softer views wherever you look.

It is a garden designed not simply to be admired from a window, but to be lived in.

The large double garage tucked away in the rear corner can act as storage for vehicles, garden tools and furniture alternatively as workshop or hobby room Back inside and up to the first floor, the upper level provides two further bedrooms, each with its own character and flexibility, making this floor ideal for growing families, visiting guests, or simply giving everyone in the household a little extra breathing room.

Both bedrooms sit comfortably beneath the roofline and immediately feel warm and inviting.

The larger suite's shape of the ceiling creates a cosy atmosphere without compromising the usable space of the room.

There's space for a large bed within the layout, leaving room for additional furniture such as a desk or dressing table.

It is easy to imagine this becoming a welcoming guest bedroom, a peaceful retreat for a teenager, or even a quiet home office if required.

The final bedroom offers a similarly appealing balance of space and comfort.

The room stretches along the roofline, creating a generous floor area that easily accommodates a bed alongside study or relaxation space.

The current layout demonstrates how well the room works as a combined sleeping and working environment, with space for a desk, shelving and seating without the room feeling crowded.

It is the sort of room that adapts naturally to the needs of whoever uses it, whether that means a creative workspace, a teenager's room, or simply another beautifully quiet bedroom within the home.

Positioned conveniently between the two rooms is a well-appointed W/C, adding a level of practicality that makes the upper floor particularly functional.

The additional bathroom facilities ensure that morning routines remain smooth and stress-free, especially when the house is busy with family or guests.
