House with pool and garden Preston (United Kingdom)
Thoughtfully designed and meticulously constructed over a five year period (2012– 2017); a truly exceptional new-build home, designed in the style of a traditional farmhouse and crafted using authentic, natural materials throughout. Every element of this beautiful property has been considered with care and executed to the highest standards, resulting in a home that balances timeless character with the ease and comfort of modern living. The accommodation briefly comprises a reception hall, boot room, cloakroom and plant room. Fabulous open plan living kitchen with utility room and pantry, separate sitting room, office, four ensuite bedrooms, fifth bedroom, shower room and large walk-in wardrobe. Lifestyle assets include a large games room including a second kitchen that’s designed for entertaining, a gym with adjacent shower room, media room, pool room, hobbies room, tennis court, large bbq hut and detached workshop. Landscaped gardens, extensive parking and an integral double garage. This is genuinely a high quality property for those that value time spent at home with family and would relish the opportunity to entertain at home in style. Vendor Insight It’s a great house for a family. There’s room for everyone to spread out but still be under one roof. We included a lot of attributes to keep everyone occupied and entertained, whether it’s just the family or when we’ve friends round. We’ve had pool tournaments and tennis parties, the media room is great for movie nights. The televisions are all purposefully away from the central living area so that they don’t dominate how we spend our time. Location Central to the community, the Lancashire village of Catforth has a school and hall which hosts a variety of classes, social events and drop in coffee mornings. For everyday essentials, there are local shops at Great Eccleston and Elswick. Whilst all different, the cities of Preston, Lancaster, Manchester and Liverpool between them offer a full range of commercial and recreational facilities including a vast choice of restaurants and great shopping. Culturally, there is a choice of theatres, cinemas and established arts and music scenes with festivals and events throughout the year. If you prefer somewhere smaller then the attractive towns of Garstang and Lytham are also convenient with supermarkets, thriving independent shops and a variety of places to enjoy a drink or bite to eat. The best of both worlds, rural but not remote, there’s nearby access to the M55 and M6 as well as a train station on the West Coast Main line at Preston ensuring that whether you need to travel for business or pleasure you remain well connected. If accessing the great outdoors is important to you then the protected National Landscape (formerly the AONB) of the Forest of Bowland offers many opportunities for outdoor adventure with an extensive network of lanes, footpaths and bridle paths for walking, running and cycling. There’s also good access to the Fylde coast’s exceptionally varied coastline; everything from wide sandy beaches, saltmarshes and nature reserves to bright lights of Blackpool; the tower, pleasure beach, piers and zoo amongst the many famous attractions. Vendor Insight The location is quiet as few people have the need to pass by, set behind the hedges, we have great privacy which we have valued and enjoyed enormously. Whilst rural, we never feel disconnected. With the new M55 links we are on the motorway in a matter of minutes, soon on the M6 and quickly into Preston. We’ve had to travel for work, often by train. Preston station is easy to reach and from there the journey time to London is just over two hours. Setting the scene Immediately the quality of bespoke craftsmanship is unmistakable. The aesthetic is one of contemporary country living; comfortable, quietly understated luxury, family friendly sociable spaces where quality of life is paramount. The specification features extensive use of oak throughout the house, including made-to-measure paneled doors, elegant custom-made staircases, double glazed window frames and French doors, Ted Todd engineered oak flooring, deep skirting boards with complementary architraves and window cills and exposed beams and roof trusses. The flooring and surfaces are finished with a variety of carefully selected natural stone tiles, echoing the surrounding rural landscape. The main kitchen is classically styled with timeless hand-painted cabinets from Simpsons of Greenfield Mill, Colne and the sanitaryware is high quality Duravit with Hansgrohe shower fittings. Although new build, certain elements of construction such as the flags and bricks were repurposed from heritage properties to give an appearance older than its years. The grand tour At the heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan living kitchen, where light floods in from all angles thanks to extensive floor to ceiling glazing. Beautifully appointed with handcrafted cabinets including a working island unit, breakfast bar and a concealed breakfast station and bar along with high specification appliances, this is a space made for modern family life - equally suited to quiet mornings, lively family meals or entertaining guests. Cook, dine and relax in comfort, with four sets of French doors opening directly onto the garden, the lines between inside and out become blurred. Double oak doors lead into a separate sitting room with a Contura wood-burning stove - a warm and inviting retreat, which can be opened to extend the living space or closed off for cosy evenings. Designed with both family life and working from home in mind, the house offers five bedrooms, four of which are located on the first floor, all having luxurious ensuites and two with walk-in wardrobes. Conveniently located on the ground floor is the fifth bedroom and a dedicated home office with oak fitted furniture, offering flexibility for multi-generational living or professional use. This is a home built not just for everyday living, but for truly enjoying time spent at home. The amenity provision is superb, the highlight being an impressive games room with its own kitchen, space to dine and soft seating gathered around the wood burner and large screen - a wonderful space for a get together. The basement floor offers something for everyone; a media room for watching a film or big match, a pool room with drinks station, gym, shower room, large walk-in wardrobe and a second home office or hobbies room. Smart home technology adds a layer of modern convenience and control, seamlessly integrated to enhance daily living. The plethora of storage provision is also a great asset, from boot room to pantry, linen store to walk in wardrobes, there’s plenty of space for all of life’s needs. The interior is strongly connected with the gardens, multiple sets of French doors and wide expanses of floor to ceiling glazing provide both an idyllic outlook and immediate access to the beautifully landscaped surrounds. Spacious, light-filled and filled with a stylish modern rustic aesthetic, Moss Cottage Farm is a truly rare find; a home that combines the warmth and the solidity of traditional rural architecture with every comfort and convenience for modern family life and entertaining at home. Vendor Insight The games room was designed to have the option to be an independent self-contained annex. There’s a separate access to the back parking area, a shower room and kitchen; we’d thought the living area could be subdivided to create a bedroom and had envisaged the space possibly for parents, bounce back teenagers or as a guest suite set apart from the family bedrooms. Step outside Outside, there are further options for year round entertainment and activity with a full size hardcourt tennis court (resurfaced in 2020), a hot tub and tucked behind a high hedge a barbecue hut. Inspired by the Scandinavian ‘grillkota’, this circular hut has inward-facing fitted bench seating around a central hearth, as well as an extension for freestanding furniture or sleepovers. It’s a warm and welcoming way of gathering, cooking dinner and enjoying together time around the fire. Flagged seating terraces wrap around the house and provide various opportunities for outdoor relaxation. Outside the games room is a large stone topped table ready for your own chairs or handy as a serving table. The terraces are of varying orientation being designed to catch the sun at different times of the day, creating spots for breakfast and morning coffee, long leisurely lunches and evening gatherings. The terracing provides the link between home and garden, all enjoying wonderful privacy. Clad in Virgina Creeper, a large wooden outbuilding has double doors, power and light. It is ideal as a workshop, a store for garden equipment, ride on mower or perhaps a smaller vehicle as there is narrow vehicular access via a grassed drive lined with willow trees. For those that take pleasure in growing their own vegetables there are two large, raised beds ready for planting. Through front and back secure gated entrances there is extensive parking available. The double garage has a fitted New Age steel workbench and integrated storage. Adding to practicality are electric gates front and back, electric doors on the garage, a log store, external lighting (some on sensors), power points and both hot and cold water taps. Included in the sale Fitted carpets, curtains, curtain poles, blinds, light fittings, wired in Sonos speakers and two Sonos sound bars.

Lawns, terraces, patios and walled gardens are thoughtfully arranged to take full advantage of the tranquil valley outlook and leafy green surrounds, while a small wildlife lake, ancient protected woodland and a private bridge crossing the river add a sense of seclusion and connection to nature rarely found. A children’s play area and expansive fenced land further enhance the outdoor offering. Complementing the main residence are extensive outbuildings, including a substantial stable block (currently used as workshops) with fenced surrounds and a small meadow, two additional detached timber workshop or garage-style buildings, and a separate double garage—providing remarkable flexibility for storage, equestrian use, or other lifestyle hobbies. Lifestyle & Character - With historical references dating back to the 1300s, Jolly Mill offers a rare opportunity to acquire a remarkable piece of local heritage. Originally a corn mill, the building has been expertly reimagined to blend its rich industrial past with refined contemporary living. Striking original beams sit beautifully within vaulted ceilings, while extensive glazing floods the generous interiors with natural light, creating a series of bright, airy and highly impressive spaces that celebrate both character and design. Jolly Mill is particularly appealing to those who value space, privacy and a strong connection to the outdoors. From peaceful summer evenings spent on the balconies or terraces, enjoying sweeping valley views, birdsong, and the gentle flow of the river below, to hosting family and friends within the home’s grand yet welcoming entertaining spaces and gardens. Children can explore and play safely within the private grounds, while hobbyists and equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the freedom to spend time with horses or enjoy the workshops at leisure. Quite simply, Jolly Mill offers a way of life that is as rare as it is rewarding. Main Living Space – Top Floor - The fabulous main kitchen enjoys views through bifold doors onto the balcony and over the landscaped gardens. Its central island with bar seating allows it to be both a practical and highly sociable space where cooking and family time blend together as one. Vast granite worktops afford ample preparation space and the sleek two-tone cabinetry with larder cupboards give a modern appeal while providing plenty of storage space. Integrated appliances include four ovens, a four-zone hob with extractor, dishwasher, full length fridge and freezer, Blanco multi-tap and sink. Benefitting from an open aspect flow from the kitchen, the dining room features unique interior windows reaching high into the room which further highlight the impressive, vaulted ceilings. A log burner in the corner of the room adds a cosy touch for the colder winter months, and its large size allows ample space for even the largest of families when hosting on special occasions. From the dining room, stroll through a pair of double doors and the huge living room awaits. A range of oak French doors complement the oak floor underfoot and original beams overhead. The six pairs of oak French doors give access to balconies on all sides and tastefully frame different angles of the gorgeous surrounding scenery. A large log burner holds the centre of the space and is sure to emit a warming orange glow when required. Owing to the very generous size of this room, if needed, it could easily be a multi-functional room, adding to the versatile and flexible appeal for modern family life. Bedrooms & Bathrooms – Middle Floor - Head down the bespoke oak staircase to a large hallway connecting the bedrooms and bathrooms. The grand proportions continue on this floor too, most notably in the master bedroom and family bathroom where the rooms are of palatial scale. The master bedroom enjoys a private terrace, uninterrupted scenic views, and a substantial walk-in wardrobe. The three other bedrooms are all very generous doubles too, and all are presented in immaculate condition in keeping with the contemporary style of the home – the second is complete with a three-piece shower en-suite and the third with another walk-in wardrobe. Within the extremely spacious family bathroom is a comprehensive suite, including a freestanding bath set on an elevated tiled platform, an open aspect shower with tiled surrounds, WC, a large his and hers vanity basin unit with lots of integral storage, and a chrome, feature towel radiator. As well as the bedrooms and bathrooms on this middle floor, the floor below offers scope for two additional bedrooms if desired... Working, Entertainment & Leisure – Lower Floor - The lower level has been thoughtfully designed as a dedicated lifestyle and entertaining floor, offering exceptional versatility and seamless connection to the gardens. At its heart sits a contemporary, fully integrated premium kitchen with a central island, ideal for hosting, informal gatherings or summer entertaining. Bifold doors open directly onto the garden, allowing indoor and outdoor living to flow effortlessly and making this level perfectly suited to family celebrations, social occasions or relaxed weekends at home. Complementing the kitchen is an impressive garden room, flooded with natural light and opening to the outdoors via two sets of bifold doors, creating a striking space for dining, relaxing or entertaining year-round. A generous games room provides an ideal setting for leisure and recreation, while the library or hobby room—enhanced by French doors to the garden—offers a quieter retreat for reading, creativity or personal pursuits. Completing this level is a versatile snug or studio, equally well suited as a substantial home office, ensuring the property caters effortlessly to modern working patterns while preserving a clear distinction between work, relaxation and family life. The lower floor also offers excellent scope for further bedroom and bathroom accommodation if desired, and would also be suitable for use as a self-contained annex, allowing multi-generational living. What are now the library/hobby room and office/studio could easily be configured for use as bedrooms. The office/studio also previously had a WC which was removed, but could be reinstalled if using this lower floor for bedroom and bathroom accommodation. Outdoor Space - Occupying an exceptional plot of approximately three acres, Jolly Mill enjoys a truly special natural setting that elevates it well beyond the ordinary. The land unfolds beautifully from the moment of arrival, with a long, private gated driveway setting the tone for the privacy and the sense of your own secluded retreat. The house sits comfortably within its large grounds, positioned to take full advantage of the outlook across the green valley and river below, creating a feeling of space and immersion in nature. The gardens themselves are both expansive and thoughtfully arranged, offering a variety of distinct areas suited to relaxation, entertaining and family life. Formal lawns, walled garden sections, balconies, terraces and patios provide ideal spaces for outdoor dining, socialising or simply enjoying the changing seasons. A wildlife lake adds a further point of interest and tranquillity, while ancient woodland creates a natural backdrop and encourages an abundance of wildlife. The gentle sound of the river, accessed via a private bridge, enhances the sense of calm and connection to the landscape. For families and lifestyle-led buyers, the outdoor space offers exceptional versatility. A dedicated children’s play area provides a safe and adventurous environment, while a fenced area and private meadow adjacent to the stables lend themselves perfectly to equestrian use, growing your own fruits and veggies, or further landscaping. The workshops and garaging support a wide range of pursuits, from leisure and recreation to practical and creative interests.

House with pool and garden Chorley (United Kingdom)
No chain! Brook House is an idyllic, one of a kind home where no detail has been overlooked and no expense has been spared. The property showcases over 5,000 sq ft of luxurious accommodation, situated on a gated 1.1 acre plot amidst the peaceful Lancashire countryside. Despite its tranquil countryside setting, it's a well-connected location, with the national motorway network accessible in only 5 to 10 minutes, and plentiful amenities within a short drive. There are many aspects which make this property one of a kind. The smart-home and eco-home technology. The opulent interior design crafted with the finest materials. The tasteful blend of contemporary and character styling. The generous landscaped grounds with natural garden lake and rockface. The babbling brook flowing by the easterly boundary. The list goes on! Accommodation Summary - A summary of the ground floor includes a grand entrance hall with porch, principal lounge with home cinema capability, family room, dining area, a fully integrated Siematic kitchen with island and bar, utility, study, boot room, downstairs WC, and two handy storage rooms/closets (one off the dining area, and one off the boot room).

Separate from the main house is an additional building consisting of a detached double garage and a large home gym with terrace overlooking the natural garden lake, which holds excellent potential for a variety of uses. Outstanding Design - Formerly a public house dating back to the early 1800s, this property has undergone significant redevelopment and been transformed into a signature residential property with outstanding design, both inside and out, where interiors have been masterfully crafted by the award-winning interior design and architectural studio 'Design by Uber'. From the polished marble bathrooms and crystal-effect stone feature walls, the stone and oak flooring, to the designer chandeliers and grand vaulted ceilings, every detail contributes to creating a true wow-factor. The house has also been designed with practicality in mind, benefitting from a floor plan that flows perfectly for both everyday life and when entertaining family and friends, while taking full advantage of the landscaped grounds through an abundance of glass. Additionally, there are plenty of smart-home features that give convenience for daily life, such as underfloor heating throughout with independent control for every room, an integrated indoor and outdoor sound system, mood lighting, remote controlled black-out curtains and blinds, and a comprehensive security system with CCTV and intercom for the electric gates. Well prepared for the ongoing transition to green energy, and having the advantage of long-term energy savings, the heating system is powered by two air-source heat pumps, with a heat recovery system which optimises the efficiency of the pumps. The Approach - On the country lane, a tall hedgerow adjoins a stone wall and two stone pillars set beside the electric gates, creating a beautiful entrance and a great sense of privacy. Beyond the gates a large drive bordered by manicured lawns sits in front of the house, providing lots of space for parking, and continues further to the detached double garage on the left. An Abundance Of Living Space - There are two entrances to the property at the front, one being the main front door, which is ideal for guests, leading through a traditional porch and into the grand entrance hall, and the other being a more practical, daily entrance to the meet the demands of modern family life, leading through the boot room, past the downstairs WC, and into the kitchen. The principal lounge is super generous in size, spanning the full depth of the property. It's no surprise it is presented to impeccable standards, with a hidden home cinema system including integrated ceiling speakers, and an Epson projector and Sapphire screen that descend from the ceiling. Draw the black-out curtains with a touch of a button on the remote, and you have the complete big screen experience from the comfort of your own home. As well as the home cinema, a set of bifold doors makes the most of the views to the garden, and the chimney breast is home to a log burner and wall-mounted TV point. The heart of the home is arguably the top of the range Siematic kitchen, grounded by a smart limestone floor. A substantial island with Corian worktop and oak breakfast bar allows the room to be a superb social space, and the comprehensive range of high quality appliances are housed within contemporary two-tone cabinetry. Integrated cooking appliances include a Miele oven, steam oven, combination microwave, and two warming drawers, plus a Siemens induction hob and downdraft extractor. There's also a full length fridge and freezer, Miele wine cooler, Siemens dishwasher, and Caple sink with Quooker tap. Off the kitchen the spacious Siematic utility room ensures you can keep the kitchen tidy and clutter-free with additional storage cupboards and worktop space, an extra Caple sink, and plenty of room to do the laundry with plumbing for the washer/dryer. Adjacent to here is also a study with a window to the front, which would alternatively be well suited for use as a play room for the little ones. On the other side of the kitchen, a few steps lead down to the family room, where a vast set of floor to ceiling windows and bifold doors frame expansive views of the lush green grounds and garden lake while providing access to the rear garden terrace and circular walled patio - a perfect setup for garden parties and enjoying the summer weather. The oak floor in this room gives a nod to the cottage character, and the stylish fire set within a media wall adds to the modern design. Due to its great size and convenient position next to the kitchen, it's a versatile room with sufficient space for both a lounge area and an informal dining/breakfast area. In addition to the principal lounge and family room, there are two further reception rooms... The grand entrance hall is large enough to be another sitting area, with a log burner that's sure to give a warming glow on cold, wintery days. With an open aspect to the entrance hall, the dining room is another delightful space for dinner parties and entertaining, with more bifold doors that 'bring the outside in' and allow you to appreciate the landscaped grounds year-round. A notable aspect of the interior design in this part of the property is the glass floor that displays the wine cellar below. Bedrooms & Bathrooms - Ascending from the centre of the home between the kitchen and dining room is a bespoke walnut staircase with glass balustrades, handcrafted leather handrail, and a stunning crystal-effect tiled stone feature wall that rises high into the vaulted ceiling. The feature wall is illuminated by subtle uplights set within the floor that complement the 2.3m Italian-crystal chandelier hanging beautifully within the stairwell. From the gallery landing, the end of the corridor opens into the imposing master suite with another vaulted ceiling and designer chandelier that add to the grandeur. Within the bedroom, a set of bifold doors pour natural light into the room and lead to the balcony spanning the width of the property at the rear. A partition wall with designer wallpaper separates the super-king bed from a private dressing area, similar to that of boudoirs found in premium suites of the best hotels, fitted with high quality cabinetry, a dressing table and mirror with inset lighting. The opulence continues in the large walk-in wardrobe featuring elegant, mirrored wardrobes, drawers, an island and shelving. Above here is a fabulous mezzanine master bathroom which is fully tiled with white marble and comprises a four-piece suite, including a tiled-in steam shower with marble seating, bath with marble surrounds, WC, and vanity basin with storage. Each of the three further bedrooms have their own en-suites and are well-proportioned for family life, benefitting from being good sized doubles so the whole family can enjoy oodles of space. The professional interior design is evident in the en-suites too, with polished marble tiling to the floor and walls, and substantial walk-in showers with glass facades. The second bedroom also benefits from bifold doors opening onto the rear balcony, and the third bedroom features a walk-through dressing passage with bronze-tinted, mirrored fitted wardrobes. Outbuildings & Outside Space - An advantage of this already spectacular home is the versatile two-storey outbuilding, composed of the double garage with electric door which is accessed from the driveway, and below is a huge room that's currently configured as a fully equipped gym. The gym is incredibly private despite its wealth of floor to ceiling windows overlooking the natural garden lake, and glass doors open onto a lakeside terrace with swim spa and hot tub (available by separate negotiation). If not used as a gym, this versatile space could suit a variety of uses, subject to regulations. A games room with snooker table and bar? Self-contained annex accommodation for family? Or perhaps separated as an Airbnb for extra income? The choice is yours! Hidden behind this outbuilding is a large log store. As well as the waterfall flowing into the garden lake, a trickling brook flows down the side of the boundary, providing a calming countryside sound to be enjoyed while you're relaxing outside on warm summer days. Beyond the terrace and circular walled patio outside the family room, the grounds continue far beyond the water over a grassy area bordered by woodland, to a fenced children's play area at the bottom of the garden.
