Summary - 47 HIGHER DRAKE MEADOW WESTHOUGHTON BOLTON BL5 2RD
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Sunny corner plot with generous gardens and versatile living space.
Detached three-bedroom family home on desirable corner plot
Set on a desirable corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, this detached three-bedroom house suits a growing family seeking practical, ready-to-live-in accommodation. The ground floor offers a large open-plan lounge/diner, a newly fitted modern kitchen with underfloor heating, and a converted integral garage providing flexible additional living space or home office. South-facing rear gardens and a double driveway for multiple cars add to everyday convenience and outdoor appeal.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom plus an additional separate WC — a helpful layout for family mornings but only one full bathroom to share. Built in the late 1970s–early 1980s, the property benefits from double glazing and cavity walls with partial insulation; buyers should note some building elements date from that period and further insulation or window upgrades may improve energy efficiency.
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working and family connectivity. Local primary schools have strong Ofsted ratings and town-centre amenities, transport links and green spaces are within easy reach, making the location convenient for daily family life.
Overall the house presents immediate, comfortable family living with scope to personalise and improve efficiency over time. The converted garage and sizeable gardens offer flexibility for growing household needs, but buyers should consider the single full bathroom and typical 1980s fabric when planning long-term works.
