Description
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a truly charming period home, thoughtfully refurbished to an exacting standard while retaining a wealth of its original character and charm. Set within generous lawned gardens with an overall plot size of circa one acre and enjoying far-reaching rural views to the rear, this beautiful property offers an enviable blend of country living, contemporary comfort and convenience.Perfectly positioned for those seeking a rural lifestyle without sacrificing accessibility, the property is within walking distance of the much-loved Haigh Woodland Park, whilst the amenities of Aspull village are close at hand. Wigan, Bolton and Standish are all within easy reach by road, with excellent motorway connections via the M6 and M61.Presented to an exceptional standard throughout, the house has been carefully transformed into a sophisticated yet welcoming family home. Original features sit beautifully alongside contemporary finishes, while modern comforts include central heating, underfloor heating to the ground floor, double glazing, electric blinds and impressive bi-fold doors opening the principal living spaces towards the gardens.The ground floor begins with a welcoming reception hall, complete with staircase rising to the first floor, together with a useful cloakroom. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive open-plan lounge and dining room, where generous proportions, abundant natural light and wonderful views across the gardens and surrounding countryside create a truly special setting for both family life and entertaining.These elegant reception spaces flow naturally through to the beautifully appointed fitted kitchen, creating a wonderful sense of continuity and connection throughout the ground floor. Further accommodation includes a dedicated boiler room, boot room and utility room, providing all the practical facilities expected of a modern country home.Upstairs, there are four generously proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, featuring French doors opening onto a private balcony, from which the extensive rear gardens and countryside beyond can be admired. A staircase rises to a useful walk-in wardrobe, adding a touch of luxury and practicality to the principal suite.The family bathroom is equally impressive, beautifully appointed with a freestanding bath and a separate shower and steam cabinet, creating a luxurious space in which to unwind.Outside, the property is approached via a substantial newly completed driveway and is enviably set well back from the road. The extensive front gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, with a large parking area extending to both the front and side, securely enclosed behind impressive gated access.The rear gardens are equally appealing, offering a wonderful sense of space and privacy. Porcelain-tiled pathways and seating areas lead through the gardens, together with a raised patio area providing the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining or a hot tub. The combination of mature lawns, generous seating areas and open countryside beyond creates a wonderfully peaceful outdoor environment.Adding further versatility is the impressive games room/study, forming part of the main house but benefiting from its own separate access. Complete with bi-fold doors opening directly onto the gardens, this adaptable space could equally serve as a home office, games room, gym or additional reception space.Homes in this area rarely become available, particularly with such extensive gardens, outstanding presentation and panoramic rural views. This is a property that successfully combines the romance and tranquillity of country living with the convenience of being just minutes from local amenities and major transport links.A truly special country home, offering space, style and character in an enviable setting — with the best of the countryside on the doorstep and town within easy reach.
