Step Into Your Own Period Drama at Overleigh House – A Victorian Masterpiece Overlooking Avenham Park

This is more than a home – it's your opportunity to own a magnificent chapter of Preston’s history. Perched elegantly above the iconic Avenham Park, Overleigh House is a grand six-bedroom Victorian mansion that blends timeless architecture with exceptional potential.

Beyond the impressive double metal gates and stone pillars, you’ll find yourself transported to an era of refined elegance. The landscaped front garden, framed by mature trees, sets a stately tone, while the expansive block-paved driveway offers ample parking for family and guests.

Step inside and you’re greeted by a spacious hallway where soaring ceilings, intricate coving, and ornate chandeliers immediately capture the splendour of a bygone age. Three magnificent reception rooms on the ground floor feature large bay sash windows, original marble fireplaces, and exquisite ceiling details—ideal for entertaining or quiet family moments.

The kitchen and dining area, though currently functional, offers a blank canvas to create a show-stopping modern hub, while preserving its period charm. A nearby utility room and rear office provide flexibility for future renovations, and the ground floor bathroom adds convenience.

Beneath the home, an extensive basement includes multiple storage rooms and a wine cellar—just waiting to be transformed into a cinema, gym, games room or a bespoke leisure suite.

The first floor houses six generously proportioned bedrooms, each rich with character—ornate fireplaces, sash windows, and ceiling heights that elevate every room. While only one bedroom currently benefits from an ensuite, the layout presents exciting potential for additional luxury bathrooms or reconfiguration to suit your needs. A front-facing balcony, accessible from the office, offers uninterrupted views across Avenham Park and the River Ribble.

Venture to the second floor and you’ll find a vast attic space with six additional rooms—ideal for converting into more bedrooms, a serene study space, or an artist’s studio.

To the rear, a substantial walled garden provides a private oasis in the heart of the city. Mature trees, lawned areas and secluded corners make this space perfect for children, pets, or alfresco entertaining. A large garage with an electric door completes this exceptional property.

Overleigh House: Own a Legacy, Not Just a Home

With grand proportions, authentic Victorian details, and one of Preston’s most picturesque parkland backdrops, Overleigh House is a rare opportunity to create a timeless family residence that honours the past while embracing the future.
