Sitting in a very pretty row of similar properties, built in the 1880's, these homes don't often come to the market. Visitors will see an entrance vestibule which leads on to a cosy lounge with feature fireplace and double doors leading to a large fully fitted kitchen with dining area which makes a great family room. The property has been extended to the rear to provide a utility room and ground floor cloakroom. A sunroom provides a quiet place to sit overlooking the garden. To the first floor there is a landing with storage cupboards, two double bedrooms and a single bedroom, and a good sized four piece family bathroom. The house has been well cared for by the current owners and is clean and tidy and well presented throughout. To the outside of the property there is a garden which has been paved to provide off road parking, and to the rear is a superb garden which has lawn and patio areas and is not overlooked, backing onto fields. This will make a great family home and is so convenient for all the local amenities, including great schools, shops, Doctors Surgery and of course the railway station. The motorway network is also just a short drive from Parbold making commuting throughout the North West very easy. ## Property Photos - ![Photo 16](/listings/photos/26990586/687391) - Photo 16 - ![Photo 1](/listings/photos/26990586/687397) - Photo 1 - ![Photo 5](/listings/photos/26990586/687399) - Photo 5 - ![Photo 2](/listings/photos/26990586/687404) - Photo 2 - ![Photo 4](/listings/photos/26990586/687407) - Photo 4 - ![Photo 13](/listings/photos/26990586/687412) - Photo 13 - ![Photo 3](/listings/photos/26990586/687416) - Photo 3 - ![Photo 6](/listings/photos/26990586/687420) - Photo 6 - ![Photo 7](/listings/photos/26990586/687422) - Photo 7 - ![Photo 8](/listings/photos/26990586/687424) - Photo 8 - ![Photo 11](/listings/photos/26990586/687432) - Photo 11 - ![Photo 9](/listings/photos/26990586/687440) - Photo 9 - ![Photo 10](/listings/photos/26990586/687450) - Photo 10 - ![Photo 12](/listings/photos/26990586/687459) - Photo 12 - ![Photo 14](/listings/photos/26990586/687471) - Photo 14 - ![Photo 15](/listings/photos/26990586/687483) - Photo 15 ## Floorplans - ![Floorplan 1](/listings/photos/26990586/687491) - Floorplan 1 ## Sales History *Recorded sales for this property.
