Situated on the fringes of Leverhulme Park and close to the banks of the River Tonge, this four bedroom cottage enjoys a wonderful tucked away (yet accessed via Bembridge Drive), rural hamlet like position, that many people may not know is even here. The countryside is virtually over the road, yet within easy reach of superb everyday urban amenities, the town centre of Bolton is around two miles away or so by car and even less by foot or bicycle, as is Bolton train station (which directly serves; Manchester, Salford, Blackburn and Preston), there are wonderful schools within easy reach. This property has all the rural charm of a secluded village location yet is conveniently placed for getting around Bolton and its wonderful amenities.
The brick property is thought to date from around 1893 with spacious accommodation over three levels and briefly comprises: Entrance vestibule, living room with feature fireplace, kitchen/diner, there is a ground level WC wash room accessed from the covered rear patio and carport area. To the first floor landing there is the master bedroom, a single bedroom and the white three piece family bathroom suite. To the upper level is a landing and two double bedrooms which are each flooded with natural light from various windows. Externally the rear area has been completely covered which creates a gated carport/covered off-road parking area with a step down, to the patio area accessed from the back door of the kitchen/diner.
The family sized home benefits from a British gas combination central heating boiler which we are advised will be serviced and a gas safety certificate will be issued in around July 2024, importantly the property is sold with no further upward chain delay and is available with early vacant possession.
In the interests of transparency we are advised that the property has suffered some subsidence many years ago caused by a leaking drain. In 2005, after an insurance claim, the drain was repaired, stainless steel bracing inserted into the gable end, and stainless steel reinforcing into the front and rear elevations. Following this work and a period of monitoring, a Certificate of Structural Adequacy was issued, a copy of which we will hold on file.
