The Home
Available to the market for the first time in around 40 years which perfectly illustrates the quality of the surroundings.
The property has been extended and adapted as our client s family evolved and now the children have flown the nest, they are ready for the next chapter and the home is ready to embrace a new family ready to enjoy the size and flexibility of the accommodation.
There are two reception rooms, the lead room is particularly large. This room has an aspect to 3 sides including a large rear bay projection with bi folding doors.
The tucked away corner position can only truly be appreciated when walking round the home.
Of the five bedrooms, four are an excellent double size with the master including an ensuite and has windows to the front and side.
Council Tax is Band E £2,665.30
The Area
Blackrod is a popular village within the BL6 postcode area and therefore benefits from brilliant access to key transport links such as Blackrod train station and Horwich Parkway. Junction 6 of the M61 is around 1.5 miles away. As a result, many locals consider Manchester and the Trafford Centre as an appropriate distance to work, shop and socialise. We find that in addition to the transport links, a strong factor attracting people to the general area is the access to this excellent countryside. The neighbouring area of Horwich has great access to a stretch of the West Pennine Moors and Winter Hill, together with large areas owned by the Woodland Trust, whilst the village itself includes access towards Haigh and the neighbouring village of Adlington which includes a stretch of the Leeds Liverpool canal.
In terms of commercial facilities, the village includes a handful of shops and services, together with doctors and a library, with further opportunities available within Adlington, Chorley and Horwich town centres working hand in hand with the out of town retail development, close to the football stadium which is a distance of around 2.5 miles away.
