Property Summary
This end house, one in a short row of four, offers nicely proportioned living space and has the considerable advantage of off road parking at the front and a beautifully tended, attractively landscaped, good sized garden to the rear. Set in a popular location, this appealing abode is situated within comfortable walking distance of Alkincoats Park, Holt House Playing Fields and Sacred Heart RC Primary School and is also just a short drive from North Valley Retail Park, Sainsburys and Lidl Supermarkets and the M65 motorway. Suitable for a wide range of buyers, especially those looking for their first home, a young family or downsizers, this property is tidily presented and maintained and recommended for early viewing.
Benefiting from pvc double glazing and gas central heating, run by a condensing combination boiler which was newly installed in 2025, the accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hallway, a generously sized living room, a dining room, which overlooks the garden, and a fitted kitchen, which includes an electric cooker and a washing machine.
There are two decent sized double bedrooms on the first floor, with the largest one having a walk-in over-stairs cupboard/wardrobe and additional built-in storage cupboards, and a good-sized shower room, fitted with a three-piece white suite, including a large accessibility shower unit with an electric shower.
The front garden has been opened up and blocked paved to create off road parking space and the sizable, enclosed garden at the rear is a particular highlight and very alluring aspect of this property. It consists of paved and pebble covered patio areas, pebble covered borders, a lawn and a timber shed and the current owner of the house has previously received awards from ‘Colne in Bloom’ for this really lovely garden.
