00:00Hi all, my name is Jack Marshall, I'm a digital reporter with the Lancashire Post and Blackpool
00:04Gazette newspapers and welcome to another one of our property features, which is obviously
00:07where we give you a quick tour, a quick overview of a notable and interesting property on the
00:12market in Lancashire. Now today's home, behind me as usual, is a stunning extended detached
00:18home sitting on a 0.7 acre plot in the sought after village of Hutton, just outside Preston.
00:25Now this place is on the market for £1 million with Benrose Estate Agents, so it is a notable
00:30property in terms of where it sits on the real estate scale. But just some background information
00:35to this place, it dates back to the 1950s and the property offers beautiful countryside views and
00:41is ideally located a short drive from Longton Village and 10 minutes from the Preston City
00:46Centre, providing access to cafes, supermarkets and obviously excellent travel links to further
00:52beyond down to Manchester, London, wherever you might want to go. The home features underfloor
00:56heating throughout both floors, which is powered by a ground source heat pump and then upon entry
01:02you'll see a vestibule leading through to a welcoming reception room and a cosy front lounge
01:07with a feature fireplace. Now this place's vibe is very much modern cosiness, perfect for those
01:12winter nights which will be coming up where you just want to kind of snuggle in, gather, don't
01:16want to have to worry about the cold outside. The open plan kitchen dining area is designed in an L
01:22shape and offers countryside views as well, opening onto a spacious family room with dual
01:27aspect windows and then on top of that a side extension includes a utility room, a downstairs
01:32toilet and potential for a self-contained annex if you wanted to go that way, if you're so inclined.
01:38Upstairs, four double bedrooms, obviously bedrooms two and three share a Jack and Jill
01:45access, if you can get my words out, and then the first floor also includes a versatile dressing room
01:50and office space. A four-piece family bathroom completes this level and then after that outside
01:56the property features a large gravel driveway, garage and a wraparound garden with a rear patio.
02:02A part of the land around 0.25 acres has planning permission for a separate dwelling, so there's
02:07plenty of potential there for development, real estate sale separate to this or development of
02:13even this property if you want to add more space. The home typically blends modern amenities with
02:18countryside charm, so I think that that's what this home is all about, modern luxuries in a
02:22connected environment whilst also enjoying that kind of rural tranquility. So yeah, let's take a look around.
02:27I'm Chris, this is Ben Rose Estate Agents and today's property tour brings us to Hutton, more specifically
02:32Skip Lane and this fully renovated and extended four-bedroom detached family home that dates back
02:38to the 1950s is both impressive inside and out, fully surrounded by rural views, immaculate inside
02:45and there is planning in principle for a five-bedroom detached dwelling
02:49just to the side. Come with me and let's take a look around Valdene.
02:59So we enter into the main hallway through this beautiful German door and the quality here is
03:04exceptionally high. Underfloor heating on the ground and first floor, we've got ample understoor storage,
03:09really like the nice touch on this balustrade that stirs up to first floor, really nice finish
03:14and then through here we've got this additional reception room space, could be a lounge, crafts, game
03:19room, nice place to gather but for me this extended open plan kitchen, dining and family space is my
03:27favourite part of the house. Just look at this bespoke kitchen, it's beautiful, the worktops really
03:32complement the units and there isn't a window inside that doesn't take full advantage of those
03:37rural views and after a hard day's work, you're relaxing with the family, what better place to
03:42gather than this snug cosy area to take in that beautiful rear garden.
03:52So I just want to show you this that leads off from that open plan kitchen area. This is the
03:56side extension of the property, currently it houses a downstairs toilet, a spacious utility
04:02with access out to the garden and an integral good-sized gallery with electric up and over door.
04:07However, with its own access point, this could be created into its own self-contained annex.
04:14So now we come up onto the first floor and as mentioned it's underfloor heating throughout the
04:17whole of the first floor bar the bathroom. We've got four double bedrooms in total, two to my right,
04:22really good sizes, both taking those captivating rural views. We've got a spacious four-piece
04:27bathroom suite here and these two double bedrooms are Jack and Jill style, they lead through to the
04:32extension which is currently being used as like a walk-in dresser area but it's got a multitude of
04:37uses with additional eave storage as well. The room behind me is currently set up as an office
04:41but it's fully plumbed for a bathroom suite.
04:50So now we step out into this rear west-facing garden, we've got this split level raised patio
04:55area, ample garden space and this beautiful rural setting front and rear with full wraparound,
05:02for me, is the perfect setting for family and social occasions.
05:06So I really hope you've enjoyed today's property tour, what a beautiful home this
05:10is. If you have any further questions around Valdeen, the property, the adjacent land with
