A Superb, Stylish Family Home In A Small, Gated Close. Perfect for parties, playdates and those “Why don’t we all come back to ours?” summer evenings with bifold doors open wide and friends lingering longer in a courtyard garden that twinkles at twilight.

This is one of those small, exclusive estates where the gates click closed and the rest of the world just melts away. Children peddle past on bikes, neighbours chat on driveways and even if you’re new here, it won’t feel that way for long.

Private, safe and surprisingly sociable, it’s the kind of close-knit Close where friendships grow as easily as the garden herbs by the back step.

It’s no wonder the sellers fell for it the moment they stepped inside, back in 2014. That long hallway, filled with natural light from the Velux window above, gave them the space - and the welcome - they’d been looking for.

Set across three generous floors, this four-bedroom detached home has been carefully updated to create a welcoming, practical space that adapts to every part of modern family life. 

Downstairs, there’s a kitchen diner with SMEG appliances, modern units and a charming arched sash window that adds a soft, classic touch. Gorgeous Amtico flooring runs throughout the ground floor, tying each space together.

But the real showstopper is the extended living space at the rear, with roof lanterns, bifold doors and room for everyone to gather. In summer, you can throw open the doors and let the party spill into the garden. 

Outside, the walled courtyard garden is private, easy to maintain and catches the sun beautifully. It’s the perfect place to unwind with a drink, light the BBQ, or simply enjoy how peaceful it feels, thanks to the surrounding trees and garden walls.

It was redesigned and landscaped in 2019 to coincide with the extension, with composite decking and soft mood lighting that really comes into its own at night.

There’s also a second reception room at the front. It will be ideal as a quiet snug, home office or a formal dining room - the owners love dressing it up for special occasions, especially at Christmas.

Upstairs on the first floor, the main bedroom has its own updated ensuite, finished with Grohe Axor fittings, a resin-tiled walk-in shower, and a calm, high-quality feel. 

There’s another double bedroom on this floor, with two further doubles above - ideal for teens, guests or those needing a work-from-home space away from the ground floor hustle and bustle.

And then there’s the bathroom - a standout space, both in spec and spa-like spirit. With underfloor heating, a Kaldewei sound bath that plays music above and below the water and high-end Villeroy & Boch fittings, it’s a truly stunning, relaxing space.

Practicality hasn’t been forgotten either: there’s space to setup an office on the first floor landing, there’s a garage with an electric door, a new boiler was installed in 2022 and there’s off-street parking for 3 cars on the drive. 

Astley itself is a wonderful little village, with a strong community and a host of local favourites nearby. Café Noir, Casa Napoli, Hop & Hazelwood and the ever-popular Astley Coffeehouse are all close by.

There’s a great choice of local schools - both state and independent. St Stephen's CofE Primary School is closest, it’s less than a 10 minute walk away.

And if you’re heading further afield, you’re only a 4 minute drive from the East Lancs Road and it’s quick and easy to join the M60. You may choose to leave the car at home and walk up Hough Lane to catch the V1 guided bus, which gets you into central Manchester in just over half an hour.

Big on space, sociability and sunshine - this family-sized home in an exclusive gated close delivers standout style and serious hosting potential.
