2 bed terraced house for sale

Babylon Lane, Anderton, Lancashire PR6

TD0461 - Built in 1870, this beautiful stone cottage seamlessly combines period character with modern style, set in the heart of Anderton.

Positioned toward the bottom of Babylon Lane, this charming two-bedroom stone terrace has been thoughtfully modernised while retaining its original warmth and character. Behind the traditional façade lies a stylish interior, featuring two reception rooms with log-burning stoves, a single-storey kitchen extension, and tasteful décor throughout — offering the perfect blend of old and new.

This home is set at the bottom of Babylon Lane, a sought-after street with all local conveniences within walking distance. There are independent shops, cafés, pubs, schools and the train station all nearby, along with canal-side walks and Rivington countryside just minutes away. It’s an ideal location for commuters and those who enjoy a mix of village life and easy access to the outdoors.

Step through the front door into a cosy yet stylish living room, featuring modern décor, herringbone flooring, and a brick fireplace with a log-burning stove as the focal point. The second reception — currently used as a dining room or snug — also includes a log burner set within a beautiful exposed brick chimney breast. This room opens into the extended kitchen, where dual-aspect windows flood the space with light. The kitchen is fitted with sleek cabinetry, ample worktop space, and modern appliances, all complemented by soft green tones and a rustic finish that perfectly suits the cottage style. Upstairs, there are two generous bedrooms — both tastefully decorated with feature wall panelling and neutral tones. The main bedroom comfortably fits a king-size bed and furniture, while the second is ideal as a nursery, office, or guest room. The modern bathroom is finished with patterned floor tiles, a white suite and an electric shower over bath.

The property is pavement-fronted with on-street parking available nearby. To the rear, there’s a low-maintenance yard with decking and a seating area, offering a private outdoor space to unwind or entertain.

This is a superb example of a period stone terrace — full of charm, character, and thoughtful modern touches throughout. Perfect for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a ready-to-move-into home in one of Anderton's most convenient locations.
