Park View, Back Water Street, Egerton, Bolton

Park View is a charming, individual five-bedroom home situated on a generous, private plot in the heart of Egerton. It’s rare to find such a substantial, detached property so central to Egerton while maintaining an excellent amount of privacy. The house has an authentic countryside feel and it is perfectly proportioned for family life, with spacious dimensions throughout and the versatility of four reception rooms, with scope to reconfigure and create even more if desired!

Externally, the generous plot features landscaped gardens to the front and rear, and a large, gated drive. Internally, the ground floor accommodation includes a central hallway, kitchen-diner, dining room, main lounge, second lounge, conservatory, utility, cloak/WC, and integral double garage, while upstairs are five good sized bedrooms, three en-suites, and a family bathroom.

Living Space - The home welcomes you inside to the central hallway with an oak staircase that complements the floor beneath. There’s a real homely and cosy feel to this property which is felt the moment you step inside.

Through to the rear of the house is the heart of the home – the open aspect kitchen-diner, with access to the second lounge too, creating a lovely lifestyle where cooking, dining, relaxing and socialising flow together.

In the kitchen, integrated appliances include a fridge, freezer, double oven and grill, five plate gas hob with extractor, dishwasher, and a stainless-steel sink set within the oak worktop, with a contemporary chrome swan neck mixer tap. In keeping with the overall vibe of the house, the kitchen has a country feel, with cream-coloured in-frame cabinetry, and complementary white tiled splashbacks. And despite its cosy ambience, there’s plenty of natural light pouring in through the two large windows which both have lovely green outlooks.

Increasing the practicality of this home, the utility is situated adjacent to the kitchen, providing plenty of extra storage space and plumbing for the washer and dryer, plus access to the integral double garage. For those with the appetite, this section of the property lends itself to knocking through and reconfiguring to create a huge open plan living area.

Next to the kitchen is also the formal dining room, with William Morris wallpaper adding to the stylish and cosy interior design, complementing the wooden floor and wooden doors, architraves and skirtings.

Back into the central hallway and the main lounge is situated at the front of the property, which continues the cosy and traditional style, with a contemporary stone fireplace holding the centre of the room, housing a gas fire.

From the main lounge the reception rooms continue even further! A pair of glass double doors open into the conservatory, which with its true glass roof creates a bright and airy space surrounded by the scenery of the garden and surrounding greenery. The conservatory also benefits from underfloor heating, and a set of patio doors lead onto the landscaped front garden, allowing that desirable indoor-outdoor living during the summer months.

Before we head upstairs, another practical aspect of the ground floor is the downstairs WC/cloak, which is finished to modern standards with neutral tiling to the floor and walls, and a contemporary two-piece suite.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms - Up to the first floor and a sense of grandeur with a bright and airy feel is created by the super spacious landing and plentiful natural light. The master bedroom is an excellent size and benefits from the practicality of fitted wardrobes, a dressing area and a large en-suite. Two windows continue the fresh and airy ambience, while allowing views of the park and Winter Hill. Within the en-suite is a stylish three-piece suite with a his and hers sink, large walk-in shower and Roca WC, plus the added luxury of underfloor heating.

The second and third bedrooms are good-sized doubles and both benefit from three-piece shower en-suites with views onto the garden and neighbouring park. The fourth bedroom is also a good sized double and includes a range of fitted wardrobes, while the fifth bedroom is currently fitted out as an office, and benefits from more scenic views toward Winter Hill, and is lit up golden orange when the sun sets.

In addition to the three en-suites is a spacious family bathroom with a three-piece suite and tiled surrounds, comprising bath with shower, wash basin and WC

Outside Space - Park View isn’t just a beautiful house to call home, it’s generous plot with private, landscaped gardens to front and rear means it’s a peaceful green haven too, one which will get a great amount of sun throughout the day…

The gardens are mature and are well configured to meet the demands of modern life, with plenty of safe space for the kids to play, a lovely spot for relaxing and socialising with family and friends, and ample areas for those with green fingers to pursue their gardening passions.

To the front of the house is a secluded lawn for the kids, and next to here are tiered patio areas and a timber-frame garden bar with power and lighting – ideal for garden parties or just chilling with loved ones.

To the rear the privacy continues with mature trees creating a tall boundary, and the elevated lawns offer another spot to soak up some sun – this aspect of the gardens has excellent potential for relandscaping, perhaps to erect a terrace or some decking with a hot tub and pergola!

Location - The location of this property is very unique, having such a central location in Egerton while also benefitting from a private and substantial plot. The convenience of village life is one of the brilliant aspects of this location, with amenities on your doorstep including great country pubs, restaurants, cafes, and good schooling options for all ages, with Eagley Nursery, Walmsley CE Primary School, and Egerton Community Primary School all in walking distance.
