About this listing

Some homes are simply somewhere to live. Others offer the space, character and setting that make everyday family life feel a little more special. Set along Chapel Lane in the heart of New Longton, this substantial Edwardian semi-detached home offers an impressive 2,337 sq ft of accommodation, with five bedrooms, three reception spaces and a generous garden. Best of all, its position makes village life wonderfully easy, with the park and cricket club less than a minute from the front door and New Longton Primary School within walking distance. From the moment you step inside, the character of the home is immediately apparent. An original tiled floor and beautiful stained-glass detailing create a warm first impression, leading into a welcoming hallway with useful under-stairs storage. At the heart of the home is a stunning, generous kitchen, dining and family space a room designed around the way families actually live. The kitchen is fitted with a good range of solid wood cabinetry, an acrylic worktop, breakfast bar and integrated dishwasher, with space for an American-style fridge freezer and freestanding five-ring gas Range Cooker. Beyond the kitchen, the open-plan family room provides a natural gathering space, with dining and lounge area brought together beneath two Velux windows. Bi-fold doors open onto the garden, creating an effortless connection between inside and out. Picture family breakfasts before the school run, children gathered around the table after a busy day or friends enjoying a relaxed evening with the garden beyond. For quieter moments, the separate living room offers a more traditional retreat. Wall panelling, a cast iron fireplace and stone hearth bring a wonderful sense of character, while the stained-glass window to the front adds another distinctive Edwardian touch. A further snug or living room sits towards the rear, providing another versatile space that can adapt to whatever family life requires. A children's playroom, quiet reading space, home office or simply somewhere to escape when the main living areas are busy the choice is yours. Practicality has been carefully considered too, with a useful utility area with downstairs WC providing valuable everyday convenience. Upstairs, five bedrooms provide the flexibility that growing families need. The principal bedroom is particularly special on the second floor, forming part of an open-plan master suite with space and plumbing for a freestanding bath and separate shower, creating the opportunity for a private retreat at the end of a busy day. Windows to both the front and rear bring plenty of natural light into the space. Three further large bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for children, guests or additional home working, while the fifth bedroom is currently used as an office . The family bathroom offers a four-piece suite including a roll-top bath with waterfall shower over. Outside, the huge garden provides an extension of the home itself. An Indian stone patio creates a natural setting for outdoor dining and summer gatherings, while the large lawn provides plenty of room for children to play. A further central Indian stone patio adds another focal point, creating different areas to enjoy throughout the garden. And then there is the location. Few things make family life easier than having the places you use most within easy reach. Here, the local park and cricket club are less than a minute's walk away, while New Longton Primary School is also within walking distance. Whether it is an impromptu trip to the park, watching the cricket or the simplicity of the school run, these everyday moments are all part of the lifestyle this home offers. Combining Edwardian character with generous and flexible accommodation, a substantial garden and an enviable village position, this is a home that offers far more than five bedrooms and 2,337 sq ft. It offers space to grow, rooms to adapt and a setting where family life can be enjoyed both inside and out. In need of some further cosmetic enhancement in some rooms.
