Summary - 5-6 MONTCLIFFE, GEORGES LANE, HORWICH BL6 6RS
4 bed 3 bath Cottage
Four-bed village cottage with gardens, views and flexible family space.
Stone cottage with panoramic Rivington Pike and North Wales views
Set in a peaceful semi-rural hamlet with open countryside and Rivington Pike views, this four-bedroom stone cottage blends period character with practical family living. Bright reception rooms, two fireplaces with solid-fuel burners and a generous loft room provide flexible space for living, working or hobbies. The house sits on a small plot with front and rear gardens, a garden room and off-street parking — ideal for families who value outdoor space and scenic outlooks.
The accommodation is well-presented with double glazing and gas central heating. The kitchen is fitted and includes integrated appliances; there are two shower rooms plus a family bathroom, so the layout works well for busy households. Local schools rated Good are nearby and the hamlet benefits from very low crime and an affluent, rural community feel.
Practical points to note: the cottage dates from before 1900 and is built in sandstone/limestone with assumed no wall insulation, so heating costs and future insulation work should be considered. EPC rating D and council tax in Band E reflect above-average running costs. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is only average, which may affect home-working without alternative connectivity solutions.
Overall this property will suit families seeking character, countryside views and flexible space who are prepared to manage typical maintenance and energy-efficiency improvements associated with a period stone cottage.
