Description

Tucked away within a quiet cul-de-sac just off Lea Gate, this substantial semi-detached home has been cherished by the same family for many years and offers a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to modernise and create something truly special. Well maintained throughout, the property retains much of its original character and styling, providing a nostalgic glimpse into an era when homes were designed with generous proportions, practicality and family life at their heart.

Welcome Home
A covered entrance porch opens into a welcoming hallway, where soft neutral décor, fitted carpeting and timber-effect wall panelling create a warm first impression. The staircase rises to the first floor, while useful under-stairs storage provides practical everyday convenience.

Positioned to the front of the property, the lounge is a bright and generously proportioned reception room, centred around a contemporary wall-mounted electric fire which provides a focal point against softly striped feature wallpaper. A large picture window floods the room with natural light, whilst neutral carpets and warm earthy tones create a comfortable and inviting space for relaxation.

The separate dining room offers an abundance of space for family gatherings and entertaining. Here, traditional striped wallpaper, fitted carpeting and a full run of bespoke fitted furniture in warm timber finishes create a room rich in character and storage. The large window overlooking the rear garden allows natural light to pour in, whilst the generous proportions comfortably accommodate a formal dining suite.

The kitchen reflects the property's careful upkeep over the years and offers excellent functionality. Fitted with a comprehensive range of cream-fronted wall and base units, complemented by laminate work surfaces, the space includes space for a freestanding oven and freestanding fridge freezer, stainless steel sink and drainer positioned beneath the rear-facing window, together with ample storage throughout. Original patterned flooring and decorative wall coverings add to the home's distinctive personality. Beyond the kitchen, a useful utility area provides additional storage, appliance space and access to the rear garden.

Three Bedrooms & Family Bathroom
To the first floor, the landing provides access to three well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom is a generous double, fitted with an extensive range of cream wardrobes, overhead storage and a dressing area, thoughtfully designed to maximise the available space.

Bedroom two enjoys attractive elevated views towards the hills and Affetside, and benefits from a wall of fitted wardrobes with mirrored sliding doors to the centre and white finishes to either side, creating a bright, spacious feel while offering excellent storage.

The third bedroom provides space for a small single bedroom, nursery or home office, with pleasant outlooks across the surrounding neighbourhood.

Serving the bedrooms is a light and bright family bathroom, with windows to both the rear and side aspects. The room is fitted with a modern white four-piece suite, comprising a panelled bath, separate glazed shower enclosure, wash basin with vanity storage and WC, complemented by neutral wall tiling and practical flooring for a clean, timeless finish.

Gardens, Garage & Parking
Outside, the property continues to impress. To the front, a block-paved driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the attached garage, while a mature planted border softens the frontage with seasonal colour. The rear garden offers a private and enclosed outdoor space, featuring a well-maintained lawn bordered by paved pathways and seating areas, providing the perfect canvas for future landscaping or simply a peaceful setting to enjoy the warmer months.

Offering over 1,160 sq.ft. of accommodation, this is a home filled with warmth, memories and potential. While many buyers may choose to update the décor and finishes to suit modern tastes, the generous room sizes, practical layout and sought-after Harwood location provide the foundations for an exceptional family home for years to come.

Out & About
Life on Lea Gate Close offers far more than the comfort of home. Step outside and you'll find yourself surrounded by some of the area's most picturesque countryside, with an abundance of scenic walks, bridleways and open green spaces right on the doorstep. Whether it's an early morning dog walk, a family adventure at the weekend or an afternoon exploring the local landscape, there is always somewhere new to discover.

Take a stroll through the rolling countryside towards Affetside and enjoy a well-earned refreshment at the historic Pack Horse Inn, wander through Riding Gate towards Bradshaw Fisheries, or spend an afternoon exploring the woodland trails, reservoirs and beauty of The Jumbles Country Park.

Harwood village is just a short distance away and offers a superb range of everyday amenities. From Morrisons, the Post Office and medical facilities to a selection of independent cafés, restaurants and popular local venues including Bill & Coo, Nook & Cranny, Porters Wine Bar, Joe's Coffee House, The No Name and The Plough, everything needed for day-to-day living is within easy reach.

For families, the location is particularly appealing. St Maxentius Church of England Primary School is within walking distance, while Hardy Mill Primary School is also close by. Older children are well catered for with highly regarded secondary schools including Canon Slade School and Turton High School both accessible from the property, making this an excellent setting for families looking to put down long-term roots within a well-connected and established community.
