Summary - College Drive, Bolton, BL6 BL6 6GH
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Large four-bedroom detached family home with garage, big garden and excellent transport links..
Ex-show house with ~4 years NHBC warranty remaining
This ex-show four-bedroom detached home on College Drive offers generous, well-planned living across 1,674 sq ft, ideal for growing families seeking space and convenience. The property is bright throughout with two reception rooms, a long kitchen/dining area, conservatory and a sizeable private rear garden that captures afternoon sun — good for children and outdoor entertaining. The main bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and an en-suite; three further bedrooms and a four-piece family bathroom complete the first floor.
Externally there is a wide driveway and a detached garage providing parking and storage. The plot is notably large for this development, with landscaped stone paving and established shrubs to the front. Practical benefits include freehold tenure, an EPC B rating, mains services, fast broadband and very low local crime — plus c. four years remaining on the NHBC warranty for new-build reassurance.
Location is a strong selling point: it sits within walking distance of Horwich town centre shops, local amenities and transport links (Horwich Parkway station and nearby M61 access). Rivington countryside and walking routes are on the doorstep, giving a rare mix of town convenience and nearby green space. Local primary schools are rated Good; nearby secondary options include a Good-rated school and one currently rated as Requires Improvement — worth checking if school performance is a deciding factor.
Considerations: the property is an ex-show home with the NHBC warranty limited to approximately four years remaining, so any long-term buyer should budget for standard maintenance as the warranty reduces. While presented well, the large garden and plot will require ongoing upkeep. Overall, this is a spacious, modern detached home suited to families who want proximity to amenities, good transport links and countryside access.
