Bolton Road, Anderton , Bolton, BL6

Situated within a small and select private development on the border of Chorley and Horwich, this attractive stone built home offers a rare combination of character, privacy and convenience.  It is listed as a semi detached property but please note that only approximately ten per cent of the total perimiter of the property is attached to next door.   

Originally a former water board building, the property was thoughtfully converted from offices into a residential dwelling in 1995. As a result, it benefits from the structural advantages and insulation standards associated with more modern construction, whilst retaining the charm and visual appeal of a traditional stone property beneath a slate roof.

Externally, the property enjoys a low maintenance enclosed courtyard to the rear, ideal for outdoor dining or relaxing. In addition, there is a separate cottage style garden bordered by a natural stream, believed to mark the boundary between the two boroughs, creating a particularly attractive and peaceful setting.

Parking is well catered for with off-road parking and a separate garage positioned to the rear of the property.

Internally, the accommodation offers a versatile layout. The ground floor comprises an individual entrance hallway, separate kitchen and an impressively spacious L shaped lounge and dining room, providing excellent natural light and flexibility for modern living. Buyers may wish to explore the potential to create an open plan kitchen within the lounge/dining space, allowing the current kitchen to be repurposed as a ground floor bedroom, home office or additional reception room. A ground floor WC and useful utility area complete this level.

To the first floor are three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with ensuite shower room. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, and there is also useful eaves storage.

This unique home will particularly appeal to buyers seeking a character property within a small community setting, whilst still benefiting from excellent transport links, nearby amenities and access to open countryside.

Anderton Court enjoys a classic semi rural setting, and is ideally located for access into Rivington, and all the benefits that this brings.

Despite these rural characteristics, it is important to note that the nearest train station is in Blackrod village just under 1.5 miles away and Junction 6 of the M61 is around 3 miles away. Horwich and Adlington both offer a great selection of mainly independent shops and services with the closest being Horwich and under half a mile. The Middlebrook retail park includes a broad range of commercial, leisure and restaurant options and is close to the aforementioned motorway link.

Many people within the area also consider Manchester City centre and the Trafford Centre an appropriate distance for work socialising and shopping.

The popular and independent Bolton School is around 4 miles away and there is a number of state primary and secondary school, serving the area some within Horwich and Chorley postcodes (catchment areas and intake can change on an annual basis).

The jewel in the crown can certainly be attributed to the access into Rivington and its surrounding hills with extensive countryside. The lovely surroundings attract people from far and wide and is great for those who enjoy spending time outdoors. A simple glimpse at a satellite image perfectly illustrates the mass of open green space on offer. All points considered; we feel that the area offers many great features.
