House For Sale £190,000
The House
A two double bedroom former weavers cottage located in a well regarded area which is steeped in history.
This is a very popular design of home offering great potential as comprehensive refurbishment is required. A buyer should have funds in excess of the asking price to cater for the necessary refurbishment program.
The current configuration of the ground floor includes two reception rooms and a kitchen. It would be possible to create an open plan dining kitchen if desired. To the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a four piece bathroom whilst the original cellar rooms are accessed via a main staircase and and frequently converted into formal living space. The front cellar room includes natural light and the rear cellar room accesses an intriguing further sub floor void which is the first time our agency has seen this particular feature.
Over the years our company have sold similar homes where the cellar rooms has become a master bedroom with dressing room and ensuite, two additional living rooms and even a large kitchen living and dining area.
Homes offering such great potential often generate good rates of interest and an early viewing is advised.
We are advised that the property is Freehold, and the council tax is Band C.
The Area
This conservation area is steeped in local history and both Nelson Street and Duncan Street include the three-storey former weavers' cottages where residents lived in the rooms above and made their living by weaving in the cellar rooms below. Over the years these properties have been developed and now offer an excellent size and versatility. The location is tucked just outside Horwich town centre and therefore has excellent access to the many independently owned shops and services within the centre. The town also thrives due to the excellent transport infrastructure which includes motorway and rail links with a consistently strong feature being the surrounding hills and countryside which include a portion of the West Pennine Moors and are ideal therefore for people who enjoy spending time outdoors.
