The Property

166 Prescot Road is an exceptional four bedroom detached home in the heart of Aughton, transformed with a bold contemporary extension, beautifully finished interiors and a level of detail that sets it apart.

The house extends to approximately 3,462 sq ft and has been designed around the rhythm of modern family life, with generous everyday spaces, carefully considered practical rooms and a striking entertaining space across the rear.

The entrance makes an immediate impression. A steel-framed composite slat gate opens to a generous gravel drive, with clipped hedging framing the arrival. The front elevation is smart and composed, with white render, black-framed glazing and an aluminium front door with a full-height glazed surround.

Inside, the reception hallway sets the tone, with broad plank character oak flooring, recessed lighting, a staircase with oak handrail and slim black steel balusters, and raw timber posts that mark the transition into the main body of the house. The sightline through to the rear glazing gives the house a strong sense of flow from the moment you step inside.

To the front is a calm and well-resolved lounge, with deep-pile carpet, a walnut-slatted media wall and a wide-format inset fire. It gives the house a quieter sitting room away from the drama of the open-plan living space.

The dedicated cinema room is a standout feature, finished in a deep ocean blue with perimeter LED cove lighting, full-width screen, soundbar and space for generous seating. It is a room designed entirely around atmosphere and escape.

The heart of the house is the full-width kitchen, dining, living and bar space, measuring approximately 39’3 x 22’0. Two large pyramid rooflights bring light in from above, while two independent sets of black-framed bifold doors open the rear elevation directly onto the terrace and garden.

The kitchen is finished with handleless cabinetry, oak detailing, a full-height walnut slatted splashback, integrated Neff appliances and a dramatic Calacatta-style quartz waterfall island. Between the kitchen and living area, a dedicated drinks bar with dark cabinetry, gold-veined marble and warm brass lighting creates a natural entertaining point.

The dining area is positioned beneath the rooflights, with space for a large table, while the living zone at the garden end has its own media wall and direct connection to the terrace.

Supporting spaces are equally considered. The walk-in pantry has full-height shelving, wine storage and an integrated drinks fridge. The utility room includes full-height cabinetry, integrated laundry appliances and external side access, while the boot room adds bench seating, hanging space and practical storage. The integral garage is accessed internally, and a separate home office sits off the hall.

Upstairs, the principal suite is generous and beautifully finished, with an oak reeded panelled headboard wall, garden views, a dedicated dressing room with fitted wardrobes and integrated lighting, and a luxurious en-suite with freestanding bath, walk-in shower, twin vanity and brushed brass fittings.

There are three further bedrooms, each with individual character, including a vaulted bedroom with sage green slatted feature wall. Bedroom two has an en-suite, while the upper floor also includes a family bathroom and separate shower room.

Externally

The rear garden is arranged as a series of well-considered outdoor spaces. A raised composite terrace runs the full width of the extension, divided into two outdoor living zones and directly accessible from both sets of bifold doors.

Glass balustrades preserve views over the garden, while wide composite steps lead down to the lawn. Beneath the terrace, concealed storage provides a useful place for garden furniture and equipment.

The garden is mature, private and beautifully kept, with a broad striped lawn, deep mixed borders, olive trees, clipped planting and mature trees giving height and privacy.

At the far end of the garden is a substantial timber-clad garden studio with full-width black-framed bifold doors. It could be used as a home office, gym, bar, entertainment room or a combination of uses.
