Description

Offered for sale with no onward chain, this immaculately presented fifth-floor apartment is nestled within the iconic Holden Mill, a beautifully restored Victorian cotton mill in the heart of Sharples. Seamlessly blending historic charm with contemporary design, this one-bedroom home offers stylish open-plan living in a prime location, close to daily amenities and transport links.

A Grand Entrance
Set on the cusp of the West Lancashire Moors, just off Blackburn Road, Holden Mill forms part of the exclusive Cottonworks gated development, where heritage architecture meets modern sophistication. Drive through the secure entrance and step into the impressive shared mill lobby, where the original character of the building is beautifully preserved. Collect your post and take either the stairs or the lift up to the fifth floor—your new home awaits.

Welcome Home
Step inside, where timber laminate flooring extends throughout, creating a seamless flow through the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space. Light and airy, this thoughtfully designed area is perfect for both relaxing and entertaining.

In the kitchen, sleek white gloss cabinetry is arranged in an efficient L-shape, perfectly complemented by walnut worktops and crisp white splashback tiles. A full suite of integrated appliances—including an electric oven, hob with stainless steel extractor, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine—ensures convenience and style go hand in hand.

A Peaceful Retreat
Beyond the living area, the spacious double bedroom is a cosy sanctuary, fitted with white glossy wardrobes and matching bedside tables for a polished, modern feel. Soft carpeting underfoot enhances the sense of warmth, while an internal window to the living space maintains the apartment’s bright and airy ambience.

Opposite, the sleek three-piece bathroom is designed for both function and style. A built-in bath with overhead shower and glazed screen sits alongside a pedestal sink and WC, all framed by a contemporary mix of dark and light tiling for a fresh, modern finish.

Explore the Area
Ideally located, this stunning apartment places you just moments from everyday essentials and leisure hotspots. A short stroll brings you to the shops, bars, and conveniences of Astley Bridge and Bromley Cross, with Asda supermarket just five minutes away on foot.

For commuters, Hall i’th’ Wood train station is a 20-minute walk, offering direct connections to Manchester, while a bus stop just outside the gates provides easy access into Bolton town centre.

Secure Parking & Gated Access
Enjoy peace of mind with private, secure parking in the basement car park, while visitors can take advantage of designated guest parking conveniently located at Entrance B.

A Stylish Home with Heritage Charm
Offering a unique blend of modern convenience and period character, this exceptional apartment is ready to move into with no onward chain. Whether you're a first-time buyer, professional, or investor, this is an opportunity not to be missed.


AGENT NOTES:
Important Notice for Buyers
We do our best to make sure our property details are accurate and reliable, but they do not form part of any offer or contract and should not be relied upon as statements of fact. Measurements, photographs, floor plans, and any services or appliances listed are for guidance only — they may not be exact or tested. Some photographs may include virtually staged furnishings and décor intended to illustrate potential layouts or styling.

Fixtures & Fittings
Any fixtures and fittings not specifically mentioned in the property details should be agreed separately with the seller.

Anti-Money Laundering (AML) & Buyer ID Checks
To comply with legal requirements, we must verify the identity of all buyers before we can move forward with a sale. We’ll also need proof of funds and details of your instructed solicitor at this stage. At Newton & Co, we use a trusted third-party provider to complete these checks securely and quickly. There’s a small, non-refundable fee of £25 per person (or £50 if you’re buying through a company), which is paid directly to us when you’re ready to proceed. Please note, we can’t issue a memorandum of sale until these checks are complete — so the sooner they’re done, the sooner we can help you secure your new home.

Relationship Disclosure
In line with Section 21 of the Estate Agents Act 1979, we must declare if the owner of a property is related to anyone at Newton & Co. If that’s ever the case, we’ll always let you know.

Referral Fees
We may recommend trusted partners for extra services you might need — such as conveyancing, mortgage advice, insurance, or surveys. Sometimes we receive a small referral fee for introducing you to these providers. You’re under no obligation to use them and you’re always welcome to choose your own.

COUNCIL TAXA payment made to your local authority in order to pay for local services like schools, libraries, and refuse collection. The amount you pay depends on the value of the property.Read more about council Tax in our glossary page.
