This character two-bedroom stone cottage offers a compact, well-laid-out home ideal for first-time buyers or a small family. The house retains period charm with a slate roof and traditional proportions, while practical upgrades — double glazing, gas central heating and a useful utility room — make day-to-day life straightforward. The rear garden and private parking for two cars are rare conveniences for a property of this age and size.
Internally the accommodation is modest but well arranged: lounge, kitchen-diner, utility and two bedrooms with a family bathroom. Room sizes are comfortable rather than generous; the overall internal area is about 813 sq ft. The location provides easy access to Rivington Country Park, local shops, and rail links for commuting to Manchester and Preston.
Buyers should note a few material points: the EPC is rated E and the stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so energy-efficiency improvements would be sensible. The immediate area is described as very deprived overall, which may influence resale in the short term, although crime rates here are very low and several nearby primary and secondary schools have good Ofsted ratings.
Offered freehold at £175,000, the cottage represents a chance to secure a character home with parking and outdoor space in Horwich. It will particularly suit buyers who value location and period features and who are prepared to carry out modest energy or cosmetic improvements to enhance comfort and long-term value.
