Standing on one of the larger plots in a cul-de-sac position, this is a superbly appointed, five-bedroom detached home. It has been upgraded, redesigned and extended substantially from its original design, with views towards Castle Hill in the distance and a rear garden with the wow factor. This perfect family home is an ideal commuting base with access to the M62. Only by an internal inspection can the amount of accommodation be truly appreciated. The accommodation comprises an entrance vestibule, large hallway, downstairs WC, stylish and high-spec breakfast kitchen, large utility, formal dining room, large living room and home office. On the first floor are five bedrooms, the master with a dressing room and en suite, and a house bathroom with a four-piece suite. The property has a gas-fired central heating system, uPVC double-glazing, a security system and solar panels. Externally, there are well-presented gardens and the rear garden is a major selling feature, with a large timber decked seating area incorporating a gazebo, summer house and lawn.
