This traditional three-bedroom Victorian stone cottage sits within Horwich's Wallsuches conservation area, offering period character and a compact, well-connected layout across three floors. The home benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC rating of C, making it relatively efficient for its age.
The accommodation includes a living room with a front bay, kitchen-diner, a converted lower-ground bedroom with a large utility space, and two first-floor bedrooms with built-in storage plus a single family bathroom. A small, low-maintenance enclosed courtyard provides patio seating and secure off-street parking via rear access.
Highlights are the location—quiet street close to Rivington Country Park, good primary schools, fast broadband and very low local crime. Buyers should note the modest room proportions and small plot typical of period terraces, and that the property’s stone walls date to before 1900 and are assumed uninsulated, so further insulation or modernisation could add value and comfort.
This cottage will suit families or buyers seeking character and a convenient town location who are prepared for some updating rather than a move-in-new home. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and potential, particularly the converted basement which increases flexible living space but may have lower natural light than upper floors.
