Summary - HIGHERCROFT FOXHOLES ROAD HORWICH BOLTON BL6 6AS
5 bed 1 bath Detached
Large private plot, countryside views and versatile living for family life.
Five bedrooms across extended 2,700 sq ft
Set on a very large, private plot in rural Horwich, this extended five-bedroom detached house combines original 1930s character with a contemporary finish across about 2,700 sq ft. The property offers versatile accommodation, including an open-plan kitchen/diner, separate sitting room, and an en-suite master with fitted wardrobes — ideal for a growing family who value space inside and out. The south‑west facing rear garden and lawns on three sides provide long evening sun and plenty of room for children and entertaining.
Practical benefits include driveway parking for multiple cars, a detached double garage, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and easy walking access to Rivington countryside. Transport links are good with quick access to the M61, Horwich Parkway and nearby retail at Middlebrook; several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within the local area.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house has only one principal bathroom (plus shower room), which can be limiting for five bedrooms; the cavity walls are recorded as having no insulation (assumed), and the double glazing install date is unknown — further thermal upgrades may be desirable. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall, this is a spacious, characterful family home with room to personalise and improve energy efficiency if required.
