Ben Rose Estate Agents are delighted to present this beautifully maintained and spacious two-bedroom over 55s first-floor apartment, ideally situated within a quiet and private cul-de-sac development just off Collingwood Road. Nestled in a peaceful setting that overlooks charming local woodlands, the property enjoys a desirable location close to Chorley Town Centre, with convenient access to public transport via a nearby bus service located just a short walk from the bottom of the road. Presented in immaculate condition throughout, early viewing is highly recommended.

Upon entering through a private ground floor entrance, stairs lead to a welcoming landing area. From here you can access all rooms. The lounge set to the front of the property is of a good size and is enhanced by a French door that opens onto a Juliette balcony, allowing natural light to flood the room. A new Italian marble fireplace with an electric fire adds a stylish and cosy focal point.
The adjoining fitted kitchen features a range of wall and base units with complementary work surfaces and space for freestanding appliances, offering a practical and functional layout.
The property boasts two well-proportioned bedrooms – the master is a generous double, while the second is a comfortable single. A newly fitted bathroom completes the interior and includes a modern walk-in shower.

The home also benefits from UPVC double glazing throughout, and a combination boiler that was newly installed in 2020 ensures efficient heating.

The apartment also includes a loft which has been re-insulated within the past year. The space is half boarded, features lighting, and has been upgraded with a hatch extension and pull-down ladder for easy access. The current vendor has also fitted new internal doors throughout and a new front door within the last three months, further enhancing the overall presentation and security of the property.

The property offers a delightful private patio area adorned with shrubs and plants, ideal for relaxing or enjoying outdoor seating. Additional conveniences include an outdoor storage shed and dedicated parking for both residents and visitors.

Originally built by Places for People Housing Association, this home is designed for residents aged 55 and over, making it an excellent option for those seeking a peaceful and secure retirement setting. The apartment is purchased on a 70% shared ownership basis. The property can also be offered part furnished, including select bedroom and kitchen furnishings and appliances, providing a convenient and flexible move-in opportunity.
