This compact end-of-terrace Victorian cottage offers a straightforward, low-hassle purchase for a first-time buyer. The property is freehold, chain-free and presented in move-in condition after recent renovations, with two bedrooms, a shower room and a cosy living room. The enclosed front garden adds kerb appeal and outdoor space without high maintenance.
Positioned in a small gated hamlet between New Church Road and Chorley Old Road, the house is quiet and secure yet close to local shops and a bus stop linking to Bolton and Preston. Bolton town centre, the M61 and Middlebrook retail park are all around a ten-minute drive, and Doffcocker Lodge and nearby rural walks provide easy access to green space.
Buyers should note the home is a Victorian stone-built property constructed before 1900. External walls are the original granite/whinstone with no known insulation, and the current EPC rating is E — so there is scope and likely cost to improve energy efficiency. On-street parking only; no private driveway. The local area shows higher deprivation levels, though crime is reported as very low.
Overall, this is a practical starter home with character, sensible commuter access and immediate liveability. It will particularly suit a buyer prioritising a ready-to-move-in property with short-term comfort and medium-term potential for energy upgrades and cosmetic personalization.
