Holbeck Close, Horwich, Bolton, BL6

Homes of this particular design are seldom available, and even fewer have been enhanced to the extent seen here. Occupying an enviable corner plot position at the head of a quiet cul de sac, this attractive property combines generous living space, excellent privacy and considerable future flexibility.

The current owners have thoughtfully extended the ground floor to create a larger kitchen, utility area, shower room and a substantial conservatory. These additions have significantly increased the practicality of the home while providing a versatile layout capable of adapting to a variety of requirements. For purchasers seeking single level living, there is clear potential to reconfigure the accommodation to incorporate a ground floor bedroom alongside the existing shower facilities.

The location within the development is equally impressive. Set away from passing traffic at the head of the cul de sac, the property benefits from a private rear aspect with no direct overlooking, while first floor views extend towards the iconic Rivington Pike. The generous corner plot provides a sense of space rarely found with properties of this type.

Importantly, despite the extensive extensions, the property retains a substantial garden area to the side, offering excellent outdoor space and further enhancing its appeal. Presented to a high standard throughout and available with the added advantage of no onward chain, this is a rare opportunity to purchase a much loved home being offered for sale for the very first time since it was originally built.
