Old Eagley Mews, Astley Bridge, Bolton, BL1

The Home:

Old Eagley Mews is positioned within a secluded part of this well-regarded area. This particular dwelling is a part conversion of a building dating back around 270 years and was joined by a group of freshly constructed homes during 1984. There are a number of other historic buildings within the immediate vicinity.

The property is brimming with character and will no doubt appeal to those looking for a home, offering something a little different. Our client’s family purchased the home in 1992, updated certain areas and have maintained the property to excellent standard. We appreciate that certain items would now be regarded as dated and the price has been set accordingly however please note that a new combi boiler has been fitted during April 2024. 

The flexible accommodation includes three individual reception rooms and three nicely proportioned bedrooms. There is modest and low maintenance, external space, meaning the property will suit those looking for a home, whose outside space requires little ongoing attention.

There is a private driveway together with garage within a nearby colony. Homes within this development are seldom placed in the open market and we would therefore recommend an early viewing.

The sellers inform us that the property is Leasehold for a term of 999 years from 1984 subject to the payment of the yearly Ground Rent of £40.00.

Council Tax Band E - £2,491.95

The Area:

Tucked in Eagley Brook Valley – known for its former cotton mills and reservoirs, mature woodland and open countryside – the historic mill village of Eagley combines proximity to glorious rural landscapes with the convenience of being near the popular areas of Sharples, Bromley Cross, Egerton and Edgworth, as well as Bolton town centre. A consistently popular part of town with access via Blackburn Road which has a vast number of shops and services.

There are a variety of nurseries, primary schools and secondary schools within these areas. Sharples secondary school has been growing in popularity during recent years and is just under 1 mile away.

A simple glimpse at a satellite image will display the vast amount of open green space within the northern side of town and this proves to be a consistently strong feature which encourages homeowners to settle for a lengthy stay.
