This recently renovated four-bedroom detached house sits on a generous plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, arranged for modern family living. The ground floor features a front lounge, open-plan kitchen/living area to the rear, conservatory, separate utility and a guest WC, giving flexible space for children and working from home. The master bedroom runs the full depth of the property and benefits from an en suite; a small en suite serves the fourth bedroom and a family bathroom serves remaining rooms.
Practical strengths include private off-street parking, large garden with good afternoon sun, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for commuters and home workers. Horwich Parkway station and Junction 6 of the M61 are about 1.5 miles away, making Manchester commutes straightforward. Several primary and secondary schools rated Good are within easy reach.
Buyers should note the home’s internal floor area is small for a four-bed (listed overall size small), so room proportions are more compact than many larger family homes. Council Tax Band D applies and there is a small ground rent of £50. The local area shows higher levels of deprivation by some measures; however crime is reported as very low. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the property was constructed in the 1980s, so buyers may wish to check the age and condition of some services and finishes despite the recent refurbishment.
Overall, this property will suit families seeking a modern, low-maintenance house in a commuter-friendly location with a large outdoor plot and scope to personalise internal space further.
