Main Description: The House: A rare opportunity to purchase a detached stone home which was originally constructed approximately 30 years ago and as such benefits from modern building methods and insulation qualities but enjoys characteristics such as beamed and vaulted ceilings, some stone mullion windows and stone fore lave with open fire etc...
The property has recently been extended and is now a four bedroom home with flexible accommodation and includes both an open plan kitchen living and dining area plus formal lounge with stunning vaulted ceiling and additional mezzanine reception area.
Glimpsing through each window as you wander through the property, the attractive rural surroundings can be appreciated. The views are both far-reaching to the West Pennine moors as well as well as the immediate open fields.
The plot is approximately 2 acres which includes a formal garden area, large gravelled driveway, two impressive garages plus workshop and it is worthy of note that planning has also been granted for an additional coachhouse style garage. There is a formal kennel building, outside WC and modern garden room which is currently sub compartmented as a cattery but could be used as a home office for example. For anyone looking at equestrian possibilities there is a modern timber stable, sand arena and paddock.
The property has been substantially extended in recent years but we understand there may be potential for further extension if desired.
The Area:
Whilst the home has a truly rural feeling it is important to note that the nearest train station is in Adlington village and just around 1.5 miles away whilst access to the M61 is around 4 miles away. Horwich and Adlington centres offer a great selection of shops, services, pubs and restaurants and there is also access to Chorley town centre and the Middlebrook retail development which includes larger outlets, supermarkets and cinemas etc...
Many people within the area also consider Manchester city centre and the Trafford Centre appropriate for socialising and shopping alike. The lovely surrounding countryside attracts people from far and wide and is great for those who enjoy spending time outdoors, dog walking, running and cycling etc...
The area manages to strike a great balance of the rural access yet still allows for convenient access to shops, commuting links and schools.
