Property description
Occupying arguably the premium plot within this consistently sought-after residential development located just off Almond Brook Road, this superb example of the archetypal family home cannot fail to impress even the most discerning purchaser from the first glance towards its handsome exterior, occupying a slightly elevated corner position within this quiet cul-de-sac. Once inside, the feeling of impress is sustained with high quality fixtures and fittings throughout and generous levels of space which extend to in excess of 1,670 square feet, and include the marvellous addition of a 15’ conservatory to the rear, which adds much flexibility to the already well-proportioned accommodation, as well as creating a wonderfully flowing floor plan which lends itself perfectly to modern day family living. Located in the thriving village of Standish, the area 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, 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 hallway with its spindled staircase to the first floor and convenient cloakroom/WC, which is essential in any home with young children, and proceeds through into the vast 21’ lounge, which has a lovely cosy quality, aided in no small part by the attractive feature fireplace with its carved surround and inset coal-effect living flame gas fire. The separate 14’ dining room is wonderfully bright with a delightful dual aspect, and will be an ideal space for those formal dinner parties when one is entertaining friends, perhaps retiring to relax in the conservatory with an after-dinner cocktail or two, whilst admiring the view over the rear garden. The 15’ kitchen, however, is the jewel in the crown of this stunning home, being beautifully appointed and fitted with an extensive range of cherry wood wall and base units with complimentary granite work surfaces, central island incorporating a useful breakfast bar, and equipped with a range of quality integrated stainless steel appliances, including double electric oven, five ring gas hob with extractor canopy, fridge, freezer and dishwasher. If one ventures up to the first floor, four bright and appealing bedrooms will be revealed, all of which feature built-in storage cupboards, whilst the master bedroom also boasts a superb three piece en-suite shower room, with the remainder of the family being well catered for by the main family bathroom, which is fitted with a modern three piece suite in classic white, comprising of close coupled WC, vanity wash hand basin and panelled bath with overhead shower.
Externally, the property affords a fabulous corner plot, with beautifully maintained gardens which encompass the property, being mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs to the perimeter, whilst the rear garden further benefits from a raised paved patio area, which is just perfect for those with a penchant for al-fresco dining, or perhaps a family barbeque, when the weather allows. The double-width driveway provides ample off-road parking facilities for a number of vehicles, as well as giving access to the attached double garage, half of which has been cleverly converted to a useful utility room off the kitchen. We would strongly recommend an early internal inspection of this fabulous home.
