2 bed Terraced in Chorley Road Westhoughton, Bolton, BL5 3NS £205,000

Property Ref: 17521 A cosy two-bedroom terraced cottage dating from 1874, with excellent amenities and travel links, and uninterrupted views across Rivington Pike and Winter Hill. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, Higher Bluebell Cottages has open fields directly behind it, which open out onto Winter Hill, Rivington Pike and the Lever Estate. Beautifully presented, characterful, and ready to move in, the cottage has a comfortable living room and spacious kitchen-diner, with a useful under-stairs utility cupboard (which could potentially become a downstairs WC if wanted). Upstairs are two bedrooms, with the rear bedroom leading to a large and airy loft space with two Velux windows facing Rivington. It’s not presented as a third bedroom, but it’s well converted with a good floor and makes a lovely additional space with plenty of possibilities. Outside, the house really comes into its own. The raised decking outside the back door looks straight across the fields towards Rivington, while the established gardens have a greenhouse, several raised beds and plenty of space for flowers, fruit and vegetables. There are some secluded spots within the garden, perfect for getting away from the rat race and connecting to nature. There’s a gravel driveway for one car to the rear of the house, accessed from a private road, with ample additional on-road parking to both the front and rear. The location offers a rather rare combination of countryside and convenience. The feeling of the area is rural, with a good community spirit along the row and horses in the field behind during the summer months. Despite this, there is a local shop within 5 minutes’ walk and a bus stop at the top of the cul-de-sac which runs services to both Bolton and Wigan. Horwich Parkway Railway Station is just a six-minute drive away (an 11 minute cycle), with trains reaching Manchester Oxford Road in around 28 minutes and direct services to Manchester Airport. Westhoughton itself is a thriving historic market town and has everything needed day-to-day. The high street includes a range of independent shops, cafés, butchers, bakery, a range of supermarkets, a library, a leisure centre with gym and swimming pool, garden centres, hair and beauty salons and more. There is also a nursery, primary and secondary school within a mile of the house, and many other options within a 10 minute drive. This cottage is an excellent opportunity for working professionals, couples or young families alike to have their own slice of semi-rural life whilst remaining within easy reach of the amenities of Manchester.
