Property description
A rare opportunity to purchase what must surely be one of the finest and most prestigious detached houses in Bury/Bolton offering a private pool complex, 4 stables and grazing. Set in approx 4.5 acres (or thereabouts) of beautiful landscaped gardens and grazing land, the property benefits from maximum privacy but is not "cut off" and offers an ideal location in between Bury and Bolton yet enjoys a semi rural village environment.
Built of stone in 1894 the property has been much extended to sympathetically enhance the living space which is generously proportioned and flows seamlessly in a way that is sure to please with fixtures and fittings of a very high quality. Briefly comprises: Externally the private block paved driveway branches off to an electric gated driveway and double garage but continues onto another entry with additional garaging and extensive parking areas. The formal gardens are professionally landscaped and quite simply beautiful with open striped lawns reaching down to the detached pool complex with the stables and grazing land beyond. The stables have their own private driveway/entrance from the road and we understand the pool complex has planning permission to extend by approximately 30% if so desired and be converted to a separate single storey dwelling. Full details are available from Bury Council Planning application no: 52826 6/6/2012
