3 Bedroom Detached House

Occupying a prominent position along Chorley Road and believed to date from the Victorian era, this charming detached home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property that has remained within the same family since the late 1980s.

The property enjoys a highly desirable position within Heath Charnock, one of the area's most sought-after semi-rural locations. Surrounded by beautiful Lancashire countryside, yet remaining conveniently placed for everyday amenities, the property offers the best of both worlds. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the West Pennine Moors, Anglezarke Reservoir and the iconic Rivington countryside are all within easy reach, providing countless opportunities for walking, cycling and recreation. Adlington village is just a short distance away and offers a range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday conveniences, together with a railway station providing direct services to Manchester, Bolton and Preston. The area is also well served by reputable schools and excellent transport links, with the M61 motorway network readily accessible for those commuting further afield. It is easy to understand why homes within Heath Charnock remain consistently sought after, combining a peaceful village atmosphere with superb connectivity and access to some of Lancashire's most picturesque landscapes.

Originally a cottage and thoughtfully extended over the years, the property now offers approximately 1,330 sq.ft. of accommodation arranged over two floors. Whilst requiring refurbishment throughout, the house provides exceptional scope for a buyer to modernise, reconfigure and create a truly special long-term home.

Stepping through the front door, you are welcomed into a well-proportioned living room positioned at the front of the property. Double doors lead through to a separate sitting room, creating a natural flow between the principal reception spaces whilst retaining the flexibility to separate them when required. Beyond, the impressive 26ft dining kitchen forms the heart of the home. Added as part of a later extension, this substantial space offers exciting potential for refurbishment and redesign, with ample room for cooking, dining and everyday family life. A window overlooks the front elevation, whilst a door provides direct access to the rear garden. The sitting room also provides access to the conservatory, which enjoys views over the garden and offers additional reception space. Collectively, the ground floor presents excellent versatility and, subject to a purchaser's requirements, offers considerable scope for reconfiguration to create a layout tailored to modern living. On the first floor, the property offers well-balanced accommodation comprising a generous principal bedroom with an adjoining WC, a second spacious double bedroom and a comfortable single bedroom. Serving the bedrooms is a substantial family bathroom, a separate shower room and a useful utility cupboard. Whilst perfectly functional in its current arrangement, the first floor offers exciting potential for a purchaser to remodel and tailor the accommodation to their own requirements. The generous proportions of the existing bathroom present an opportunity to create a fourth bedroom if desired, whilst the WC could be reimagined into an en suite. Whether retained as a spacious three-bedroom home or reconfigured to provide additional sleeping accommodation, the layout provides a level of flexibility rarely found in properties of this age and character.

Externally, the property is approached via a charming front garden enclosed by mature hedging, with gated side access leading to the rear. The tiered rear garden has been designed for ease of maintenance and enjoys a surprising degree of sunshine throughout the day. The first tier provides access from the house, whilst a ramp leads to a second level with gated off-road parking for one vehicle. Beyond this, a further raised patio area offers an ideal space for outdoor dining and relaxation.

Character homes of this nature, particularly those offering such significant potential for improvement, are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Whether seeking a period home to restore, a project with scope to add value, or simply a property capable of evolving with a family's needs, this unique residence deserves closer inspection.
