Located within the charming Bank Top conservation area, this delightful end-terraced property integrates perfectly within its characterful surroundings. Yet one must not judge this home by its modest, albeit attractive exterior, as the accommodation available here is extremely deceptive, having benefitted from a substantial rear extension and a thoughtful conversion of the roof space, expanding its already generous proportions. Now affording in excess of 1,570 square feet of living space in total, including two generous reception rooms and three double bedrooms, this home has been completely renovated throughout in recent years, giving a new owner the opportunity to simply move in their belongings, sit back and relax.
The convenience of the location is a real highlight, being on a bus route and within easy reach of a host of independent shops, supermarkets and amenities at Astley Bridge. For the youngest members of the family, very well regarded primary and secondary schools are close at hand, including Canon Slade, Thornleigh Salesian College and, virtually on the doorstep, Sharples High School, whilst the adults can benefit from the area’s excellent transport links via rail and road, which will be ideal for those with a commute to consider.
The immaculately presented interior is a real credit to the current owners, with a warm and inviting ambience prevalent throughout; entering via the entrance vestibule into the 16’ lounge, which enjoys a lovely cosy feel, despite its impressive proportions. The Oak flooring and open fireplace add to the feeling of character, be-fitting of the location, with the former extending through into the 19’ dining room, linking the spaces seamlessly. This fabulous entertaining space provides ample room for even the most populous of dinner parties, the plethora of windows affording a great deal of natural light and with guests able to slip out of the uPVC double glazed French doors into the courtyard for an after-dinner glass of something sparkling.
The 13’ kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units in cream with contrasting solid wood work surfaces and under-unit lighting, whilst there is space for a Rangemaster-style cooker and a number of integrated appliances, including a fridge and dishwasher. A handy off-lying utility room provides plenty of additional storage, as well as keeping those unsightly piles of washing and kitchen gadgets out of view of unexpected visitors.
If one ventures up the first floor, the landing provides access to two attractive double bedrooms, including the 16’ master bedroom, which benefits from a range of fitted wardrobes, as well as the very well-appointed family bathroom, complete with underfloor heating; being fully tiled and fitted with a smart four piece suite in classic white, comprising of WC, wall-mounted wash hand basin, tiled bath and separate shower cubicle. A third double bedroom is located to the second floor, a vast 18’ space which could be utilised for a multitude of purposes, including a workspace or hobby room, or perhaps a perfect playroom for the little ones, complete with lots of useful eaves storage for those suitcases and Christmas decorations.
Externally, the low-maintenance front garden is laid with shingle, providing an ideal spot to adorn with one’s pots and planters, and perhaps to site a bench on which to watch the world go by. The attractive walled rear courtyard is wonderfully private, with room for al-fresco dining and perhaps a comfy sofa where the stresses of the day can be alleviated with a glass of wine or two. Parking facilities are provided to the side of the property. Available with the benefit of no onward chain, we would highly recommend an internal inspection to appreciate all that this beautiful family home has to offer.
