Rarely does a property so unique in design come to the market in such a prime position. Set on a generous plot, with established gardens, this superb detached property is an exciting opportunity for any discerning buyer. We encourage early internal inspection to appreciate the size and versatility on offer.
Elevated from road level, and set behind a beautifully manicured front garden, this striking dormer bungalow delivers spacious and versatile accommodation over two floors. Built in 1957, this has been home to the same family for a number of decades, who have had the pleasure of living in such a bright and beautiful space, close to the heart of the village. Just a short walk up Bolton Road leads into the centre of the village where you will find an array of conveniences including supermarkets, cafes, hairdressers, bakeries, and much more. It is ideally placed in the catchment area for popular local primary schools, and is situated on the main Preston to Bolton bus route, which sees the 125 passing every fifteen minutes. Buses also collect secondary school and collage students from the village centre. Heading out of the village, towards Horwich, are further amenities, including Horwich town centre, the Middlebrook Retails Park, and Junction 6 of the M61.
If you are looking for semi-rural living, look no further. The village of Adlington is set at the foothills of the West Pennine Moors, and a well-known short cut from this property on Bolton Road can take you to Rivington in under a fifteen minute walk. If walking is your thing, there are many routes to choose from, including the 'Adlington circular', and a canal walk to Haigh Hall and beyond.
