Description

Where Heritage Meets Modern Living
Step inside Holden Mill—an iconic Grade II listed cotton mill built in 1926 and beautifully converted in 2010 into the exclusive Cottonworks development. Beyond the grand mill façade, this fifth-floor apartment offers the perfect balance of industrial heritage and modern style, set within a secure gated community complete with intercom entry and lift access.

The Apartment
As you arrive on the fifth floor, a spacious communal hallway leads to your new home. Inside, you’re welcomed by a modern entrance hall with access to a sleek three-piece bathroom, fitted with a bath and overhead shower, wash basin, and WC—all finished in a contemporary style.

The double bedroom is generously proportioned, fitted with wardrobes for ample storage, and features a unique internal window that channels natural light from the open-plan living area, creating a bright and airy feel throughout.

Step down into the heart of the home: a modern open-plan living and dining area, finished with soft grey carpeting and a striking forest green feature wall. Full-height glazed doors open out onto one of the apartment’s best assets—a covered, private decked balcony, perfectly positioned to the south-west. Whether it’s a quiet morning coffee or a relaxed summer evening drink, this space offers the ideal retreat.

The contemporary kitchen is thoughtfully designed with a complete suite of integrated appliances, including an electric oven, four-ring halogen hob with stainless steel extractor, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and plumbing for a washer/dryer. Sleek white gloss base units are paired with contrasting grey wall cabinets and timber-effect worktops, while walnut laminate flooring adds warmth and texture—bringing both style and functionality to the space.

Location & Lifestyle
The Cottonworks places you at the edge of the West Pennine Moors while keeping everyday amenities close at hand. Within minutes you’ll find Asda, cafés, bars, and restaurants in Astley Bridge and Bromley Cross. Commuters benefit from nearby Hall i’th’ Wood station with links to Manchester, as well as bus routes into Bolton town centre right outside the gates.

Added Benefits
• Secure gated access with intercom system
• Private allocated secure indoor parking in Bay 70 plus visitor spaces
• Lift and stair access
• No onward chain—move straight in

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.

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 or benefit for introducing you to these providers. You’re under no obligation to use them and you’re always welcome to choose your own.
