Description

Carlton Road, Heaton – Character, Comfort, and Family Living in Leafy Surroundings
Tucked away on one of Heaton’s most desirable tree-lined avenues, this handsome period home commands quiet attention among a row of distinguished red-brick properties. The stained-glass detailing in the entrance hints at the craftsmanship within. Step inside the sheltered porch, through a decorative glass doorway, and into a welcoming hallway where time-honoured elegance sets the tone: timber floors stretch underfoot, original doors and picture rails line the walls, and a panelled staircase with timber rail climbs gracefully upwards beneath soft shafts of natural light. High ceilings throughout enhance the sense of space, while crystal chandeliers lend the hallway and landing a touch of elegance and grandeur.

Where Period Charm Meets Modern Living
To the right, the formal living room exudes timeless charm – like stepping into a scene from a Victorian novel. A broad bay window welcomes the morning sun, while a feature decorative gas fireplace, ornate cornicing, feature Laura Ashley wallpaper, and plush carpeting create a cocoon of comfort and character.

Adjoining this, a second reception room of generous proportions offers flexibility and warmth. With timber flooring underfoot, a contemporary wall-mounted gas fire, a large bay window overlooking the rear garden, and a ceiling rose anchoring soft chandelier lighting, it’s ideal for elegant entertaining or quiet family evenings alike. These two rooms move effortlessly between stillness and celebration.

A Kitchen That’s as Sociable as It Is Stylish
Across the hallway, the open-plan kitchen and dining space is a hub for modern family life – blending tradition with practicality. Painted cabinetry in a timeless style is topped with dark countertops, arranged around a cream range-style oven and chimney feature. A moveable kitchen island adds flexibility and additional prep space, while a working servant’s bell offers a charming nod to the home’s heritage. There’s space for a freestanding fridge-freezer and plumbing in place for a dishwasher. By the front-facing window, a large dining table fits comfortably, while a matching kitchen dresser proudly displays your favourite wares.

Tucked behind the kitchen, a practical utility room keeps laundry and daily clutter hidden, preserving the beauty and flow of this sociable space.

Restful Bedrooms and Refined Bathrooms
Upstairs, three double bedrooms await – each a tranquil retreat filled with natural light and period detail. The main bedroom, set to the rear, is styled in calming tones with Laura Ashley wallpaper, bespoke fitted wardrobes, and overhead storage. Its en-suite shower room is chic and contemporary, featuring a graphite grey gloss vanity sink, WC, and a glazed screen shower, all set against stylish floor-to-ceiling tiling. The space boasts high-spec quality fixtures and fittings, including a Hans Grohe rainfall shower and a premium Merlyn shower door.

Bedroom two, a spacious double at the front, features a vibrant tropical wallcovering to one wall, softened by rich green tones throughout. Bedroom three, with creamy-beige damask wallpaper and a built-in cupboard, is serene and stylish.

The main bathroom is both practical and indulgent – fitted with a vanity basin, mirrored cabinets, WC, bathtub, and walk-in rainfall shower. All set against floor-to-ceiling marble-effect tiling that elevates the space with a sense of refined, everyday luxury.

The Loft Retreat – Light, Quiet, and Inspired
Ascend to the top floor and discover a versatile loft conversion. Dormer and Velux windows flood this level with daylight, revealing a fourth double bedroom and a fifth currently styled as a spacious home office. Both rooms benefit from handy eaves storage, keeping the space practical as well as stylish. With crisp white walls, warm laminate flooring, and ample floor space, this upper retreat is perfect for work, guests, hobbies, or teen hideaways. A convenient WC with pedestal basin completes the offering on this floor.

An Outdoor Oasis for All Seasons
Step outside into a private rear garden that effortlessly blends beauty and function. A raised hardwood deck offers space for alfresco dining and evening unwinding. Beyond, a large enclosed lawn is bordered by mature shrubs and swaying trees – ideal for both playful afternoons and tranquil mornings. Tucked discreetly behind the garage, an area with electricity supply awaits the addition of a hot tub or outdoor spa. There are also two double outdoor electric sockets, decking lights, and stylish up-and-down outdoor lights – adding both practicality and ambience to your outdoor living experience

Practicality with Possibility
A block-paved driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles, complemented by a detached garage offering storage, workspace, or hobby potential. Though now expired, previous planning permission was granted for a substantial rear extension – paving the way for future expansion (subject to reapplication) to grow the home in line with your needs and aspirations.

Carlton Road – Leafy, Quiet, Connected
More than just a home, this is a lifestyle opportunity in one of Bolton’s most beloved neighbourhoods. From here, the prestigious Bolton School is a short walk away, while nearby green spaces and walking trails invite daily doses of nature. For coffee lovers and foodies, New Hall Lane offers local favourites like Heaton Café, Provisions Deli, and Tesoro Pizzeria. Indulge in dinner at The Retreat, enjoy relaxed afternoons at The Victoria Inn, or grab breakfast at Earls Day & Night Deli.

Middlebrook Retail Park is just a short drive, and those with a sporty streak will appreciate the proximity to Markland Hill Racquets Club and four nearby golf courses – Old Links, Regent Park, Bolton, and Deane – all within a mile. With excellent motorway access via the M61, and Horwich Parkway or Lostock Train Stations nearby, commuting to Manchester or beyond is swift and convenient.
