Property description

This rather handsome three bed semi-detached residence has no doubt been cast many admiring glances, its traditional facade being an example of a period synonymous with style and character, the likes of which is a rare opportunity in the area. Once inside, there is a real feeling of nostalgia and tradition, transporting oneself to a much loved bygone era, whilst the generously proportioned living spaces total in excess of 1,175 square feet and infuse a lovely warm and inviting ambiance.

The property itself is a real gem, offering a real homely feel and a true sense that this really is a family home, something which cannot be replicated through decor, fixtures or fittings, instead being an enviable quality which is ingrained within its make-up. The property occupies an attractive position within walking distance of the thriving village centre of Standish, an area which has demonstrated itself to be a consistent attraction to prospective buyers, its strong sense of community, and all that it is able to offer its inhabitants, being a particularly strong pull for those looking for a location to raise their family. At its heart, the beautiful Parish Church of St. Wilfrid, the only Grade I listed building within Wigan, as well as other delightful landmarks such as a late medieval cross and stone stocks in the market place, whilst the bustling village centre provides a host of local shops and amenities, including a post office, two banks and three supermarkets. When one is craving something more vibrant still, Wigan town centre is only a short distance away with its diverse range of high street stores, trendy bars and eclectic eateries, which will be perfect for those who enjoy a hectic social calendar.  

The area boasts a number of highly regarded schools at both primary and secondary level, with the outstanding Wood Fold Primary School just a moment’s stroll away, whilst the older members of the family are also well catered for, with close proximity to the M6 motorway ensuring major commercial centres such as Manchester, Liverpool and Preston are within a reasonable commute. One enters the property via the entrance porch and into the reception hallway with its staircase to the first floor, which really catches the essence of the era, proceeding through into the first of the two identically proportioned reception rooms, allowing a new owner the luxury of choosing the configuration of living spaces to suit their own individual requirements. 

At present, the property is configured with the 12’ lounge to the front elevation, with a feature fireplace providing the focal point to the room and a large uPVC double glazed bow window which affords an abundance of natural light, creating a lovely bright space. The dining room has its own feature fireplace with an inset coal-effect living flame gas fire, as well as another uPVC double glazed bow window providing a delightful aspect over the rear garden, whilst the kitchen with its useful separate utility room and rear porch, is fitted with a range of wall and base units and has a stainless steel sink unit which is wonderfully retro. If ne ventures up to the first floor, the good-sized landing provides access to the three bedrooms - two spacious doubles and a single - as well as the family bathroom, fitted with a three piece suite in classic white, comprising of pedestal wash hand basin, panelled bath and separate WC. 

Externally, the property enjoys a particularly attractive plot with generous lawned gardens to the front and rear, the rear having an open aspect and being a real horticultural treat, with mature shrubs and trees affording an excellent degree of privacy and seclusion, whilst the paved patio provides an ideal space for a spot of al-fresco dining. Off-road parking facilities are provided on the driveway for a number of vehicles, and also give access to the attached single garage. Available with the benefit of no onward chain, homes of this style are frequently sought, but rarely become available, and so we would anticipate strong interest. We would highly recommend an early viewing to avoid disappointment.
