5 bedroom detached house for sale

We are proud to be favoured with the instructions to sell the White House which is a stunning five double bedroom period detached home situated within private landscaped grounds approaching 1.25 acres and positioned off Victoria Road which is generally regarded to be the prime residential location of the town. A private electrically operated gated entrance leads on to a sweeping driveway fringed by established gardens and leads to a generous parking area and an array of substantial outbuildings including a large double garage. The theme is continued to the rear of the property which is arranged on seven levels incorporating hard landscaping and several water features culminating in a 35ft heated outdoor swimming pool. The accommodation is of impressive dimensions throughout and retains many attractive period features which will suit the discerning purchaser seeking an impressive home with good levels of privacy. Although situated in a secluded location it is nevertheless well placed for practical commuting via major road, rail and the motorway network to neighbouring towns and cities and there are excellent schools and sports and social clubs in the area. There are very few properties in Heaton or Lostock which are set within such generous and established grounds and an early viewing is therefore strongly recommended.
