The Gables,Parbold Hill,Parbold,WIGAN,WN8 7TQ
WN8 7TQ
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Substantial period home with far-reaching valley views and flexible outbuildings.
Set in approximately five acres of gardens, paddock and orchard
A striking 1923 detached home set in about five acres of lawns, paddocks and orchard, The Gables balances original Arts & Crafts detail with sizeable modern additions. High ceilings, decorative plasterwork, carved joinery and a galleried landing give strong period character throughout generous reception rooms and the orangery, which frames far-reaching Douglas Valley views.
Practical family living is provided by five reception rooms, a well-equipped dining kitchen with two utility rooms, and four double first-floor bedrooms including a fitted master with balcony and en suite. Outside there is extensive tarmac parking behind electronic timber gates, a second illuminated driveway, three timber sheds, a steel agricultural workshop and container — useful for hobbies or small-scale storage.
Important considerations: the property is heated by oil-fired central heating and currently has an EPC rating of F. The house is substantial and provides scope for updating and energy improvements; buyers should budget for potential modernisation and confirm services, heating and fittings are in working order. Council Tax Band G reflects larger running costs.
This home will suit buyers seeking privacy, space and period character — families wanting good local schools and room for outdoor pursuits, or purchasers looking for a lifestyle property with scope to improve energy performance and personalise finishes.
