Manchester Road, Blackrod, Bolton, BL6

Representing a rare opportunity to acquire a property within this particular stretch of Manchester Road which has been owned within the same family for many years.

We understand that the property was built during the 1950s/1960s and subsequently benefits from the generous room proportions associated with this age of build which is clear when compared with homes of a more modern design.

The three bedrooms are a double sized, served by an enlarged four-piece bathroom and to the ground floor there is a large lounge through dining room design plus extended kitchen. The layout lends itself perfectly to the creation of open plan living should this be desired and it is equally worthy of note that there is likely to be further scope for extension subject to the usual regulations and consent.

The homes are nicely set back from the road in this group and includes a good driveway plus garage.

The property is Freehold

Council Tax is Band C - £1,938.40

Manchester Road runs through the heart of Blackrod village which in itself benefits from the A6 Bypass which takes the majority of traffic passing by the village. This particular location is well placed for those looking for the popular Blackrod Primary School which is rated by OFSED as outstanding. Blackrod train station is just around half a mile away and is on the mainline to Manchester. Junction 6 of the M61 is around 2 miles away and these transport links are a consistently popular feature of the area.

The village itself includes a number of shops and services together with pubs and restaurants with a greater quantity of retail outlets spread between Adlington, Chorley and Horwich town centres together with the Middlebrook 'out of town' retail complex. As previously mentioned, there is popular local schooling together with a variety of further childcare facilities and the village also has access to secondary schools. All in all, we feel that the location offers a very family friendly package.
