Property description
Occupying an elevated position on Chorley Road, one of the area’s most highly regarded addresses, this spacious three bed double-fronted detached true bungalow occupies an impressive plot situated well back from the main road and nestled amidst good-sized gardens to the front and rear. The property has recently been the subject of a comprehensive programme of improvements, having been tastefully re-decorated throughout in Farrow & Ball paints, as well as new floor coverings and a new gas central heating system with Baxi combination boiler, whilst the kitchen has seen a smart overhaul, as has the bathroom, which has been re-fitted with a contemporary new suite.
The property is located in the consistently sought-after locality of Standish, an area renowned for the quality of life it affords its inhabitants, only a short drive from the bustling village centre with its diverse local shops and amenities, whilst the thriving town centre of Wigan is equally within easy reach when one is looking for something a little more vibrant, with high street stores, eclectic bars and eateries. Excellent schooling at both primary and secondary levels are close by, whilst the older members of the family will enjoy the ease of access to the motorway network, ensuring major commercial centres such as Manchester, Liverpool and Preston are within a reasonable commute.
The property affords in excess of 945 square feet of accommodation, with a thoughtfully laid-out floor plan which creates very well proportioned living spaces throughout, entering via the entrance porch and into the central reception hallway, with its quality laminated wooden flooring, and then proceeding through into the first of two sizeable reception rooms – the 12’ lounge – which has a lovely leaded bow picture window to the front elevation, which provides an abundance of light into this bright space, whilst the feature fireplace with its mahogany surround and free-standing log-effect living flame gas fire aids in the creation of a cosy ambiance. The dining room is also very well proportioned, and has a serving hatch opening directly into the kitchen, creating a sociable space for when one has friends over for dinner, with the nominated chef for the evening not needing to be excluded from the fun; having been given a fresh modern new look, with new tiling and decor, as well as a new cooker and sink unit, whilst the three double bedrooms are all of a good-size, bright and appealing.
The new family bathroom completes the living spaces, being fully tiled and fitted with a modern three piece suite in classic white, comprising of vanity wash hand basin, close coupled WC and panelled bath with overhead shower attachment. Externally, the elevated position affords sizeable gardens to the front and rear, with the enclosed rear being of a particularly good-size, mainly laid to lawn and not overlooked, whilst there are two detached garages – one to the rear and utilised for storage purposes, or perhaps this could be a workshop for those looking for some work space at home, and an additional garage to the front of the property, providing secure off-road parking facilities. Available with the benefit of no onward chain, we would highly recommend an internal inspection of this well presented home.
