Set on a substantial corner plot in sought-after Markland Hill, this three-storey detached house offers generous family living across nearly 4,500 sq ft. The home centres on a dramatic entrance hall, formal lounge, separate dining room and an expansive open-plan kitchen/dining/day lounge that flows to a sunny south-westerly garden. Privacy is enhanced by electric gates, mature screening and a wide driveway plus an integral double garage.
Accommodation includes six double bedrooms, five bathrooms and significant storage including a large top-floor storeroom; two upstairs bedrooms have en-suites, creating ideal space for older children, guests or multi-generational use. The interiors are well maintained and largely move-in ready, with quality fittings such as granite worktops, Italian tiled flooring and underfloor heating in the kitchen. There is useful scope for cosmetic modernisation to personalise finishes and maximise value.
Practical details to note: the property is leasehold with a long lease (999 years from 2004) and a nominal ground rent; council tax sits in a high band. The house was built in the early 2000s and benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and a Megaflo hot water system located in the garage.
This home will suit established families seeking space, schooling access and privacy in a leafy Bolton enclave — buyers seeking a turnkey ultra-modern finish should expect to carry out cosmetic updating to reflect contemporary tastes.
