Set on a quiet cul-de-sac off Crown Lane, this renovated three-bedroom detached house offers practical family living with easy access to schools and transport. The kitchen was fitted in 2020 and a new boiler installed in 2022, reducing immediate maintenance costs. Neutral decor and new internal doors give a fresh, move-in-ready feel.
The rear garden is landscaped with raised composite decking — a secure outdoor space for children and entertaining — and the long driveway plus garage provides rare off-street parking under £300,000. Blackrod station is roughly half a mile away and the M61 is about 2.5 miles, so commuting to Manchester or Preston is straightforward.
Accommodation is compact (approximately 758 sq ft) and currently arranged with a modern tiled shower room; historically this was a bath-equipped bathroom so reconfiguration is simple if desired. There is scope to extend, subject to planning, should you need more living space.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (999-year term from 1984) with a small annual ground rent of £75. External paintwork was planned but not completed; buyers should expect minimal finishing outside. Council Tax Band C applies.
