Summary - 148 MARKLAND HILL LANE BOLTON BL1 5NZ
3 bed 4 bath Semi-Detached
Period character meets open-plan family living on a wide plot near excellent schools.
Late Victorian semi-detached with strong period features
A striking late-Victorian semi-detached home presented to a high standard with many original features retained. High ceilings, large windows, decorative architraves and stained glass combine with a fully reconfigured open-plan kitchen/living area and underfloor heating to deliver comfortable modern family living.
The house offers three double bedrooms (two with en-suite showers), a separate family bathroom, utility and ground-floor WC. Externally the wide plot, long driveway and detached garage with workshop provide practical parking and strong scope for conversion or an extension (subject to planning consent).
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (999-year term from 1898, c.872 years remaining) with a nominal ground rent of £2.50 per year. Council Tax sits in Band E. The property’s cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, which may mean further insulation work to improve energy efficiency. The area has good commuter links and excellent local schools, but local deprivation indices are higher than average.
This home suits buyers seeking period character with contemporary living space and potential to add value through modest exterior works or outbuilding conversion. Early viewing is recommended for those prioritising spacious rooms and a wide plot in a well‑connected Heaton location.
