Ravens Wood, Heaton, Bolton, BL1

The Home:

This home offers a substantial size of approx 2664 sqft, which is not readily apparent from the front.

Whilst the original design includes four bedrooms, each are an excellent double size and in many similar homes the same space could well have accommodated five if not six smaller bedrooms. Both the bathroom and ensuite proportions, also illustrate the generous dimensions throughout.

Our client has thoughtfully extended the dwelling to the ground floor which now offers an impressive group of reception rooms, two of which are particularly large one originally designed as a study and it is worthy of note that the layout has been re-configured to include an open plan, kitchen and living area.

The extended living area measures at 23 ft x 13 ft and connects immediately into the large double garage. As such, the layout would lend itself to the creation of an annex style living area where there would be potential to provide ground floor bathroom facilities due to the plumbing associated to the ground floor wc which shares a party wall with the garage.

The large rear garden has been an ideal space for entertaining over the years and enjoys great privacy being fringed by woodland. The only loss of privacy would be attributed to the mass of birds and wildlife in the valley to the rear.

In summary, as mentioned previously, the home is much larger than would be envisaged from a simple drive by. We feel the property would no doubt suit growing families, those families looking for multi generation living and equally those downsizing from an even larger home but wishing to retain a high calibre address and substantial room proportions.

The sellers inform us that the property is Freehold
