Stylish Detached 3-Bed Bungalow On A Quiet Crescent In Harwood

Tucked away on the peaceful and flourishing crescent of Orchard Gardens, just off Hough Fold Way in Harwood, this beautifully remodelled detached bungalow offers an effortless blend of contemporary comfort and elevated village-style living. Framed by immaculately manicured gardens and enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding treetops and rolling Bolton skyline, the home feels wonderfully private, calm and connected to nature.

Approached via a generous driveway leading to a garage, the property immediately impresses with its neat frontage, clipped hedging and enviable corner-style setting within this established residential enclave.

Welcome Home
Inside, the interiors have been thoughtfully modernised with a refined, cohesive palette throughout. Crisp white walls, contemporary recessed spotlighting and deep skirting boards create a clean architectural feel, softened by luxurious textured finishes and warm natural tones. Rich dark timber-effect flooring flows seamlessly through the principal living spaces, bringing warmth and character while complementing the home’s modern styling beautifully.

The lounge is particularly inviting, an elegant reception space centred around a contemporary wood-burning stove recessed beneath a substantial oak mantel, creating a striking focal point and a wonderfully cosy atmosphere during the colder months. The room feels both sophisticated and relaxed, with ample proportions for entertaining as well as everyday living.

To the rear, the kitchen has been stylishly reimagined in a timeless shaker design, finished in soft off-white cabinetry paired with marble-effect wall panelling and complementary work surfaces. Integrated appliances include twin eye-level ovens, a microwave, 5-ring gas hob with extractor canopy, and integrated storage solutions, while the central island incorporates built-in wine shelving and additional preparation space. A bespoke fitted dining bench enhances the informal dining area, perfectly positioned beside the garden-facing window and rear access door. The continuation of the textured wood-effect flooring gives the space a boutique, almost Scandinavian-inspired feel.

The bungalow offers two generously proportioned ground-floor double bedrooms, both finished in calming neutral tones with feature metallic damask wallpaper adding depth and subtle luxury. One of the bedrooms enjoys large sliding patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden, allowing natural light to pour in and creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.

The contemporary shower room has been finished with marble-effect tiling, modern vanity storage, a walk-in glazed shower enclosure and sleek matte fittings, all contributing to the home’s polished finish.

A converted loft room provides an additional versatile third bedroom or peaceful home office retreat, complete with soft carpeting, recessed lighting and useful eaves storage.

Step Outside
Externally, the rear gardens are a genuine highlight, expansive, beautifully maintained and bordered by mature hedging and established planting. The elevated setting captures breathtaking panoramic views stretching across Harwood and beyond, while the generous lawn and patio areas provide the perfect backdrop for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the changing seasons.

A beautifully balanced home that combines warmth, quality and understated elegance in one of Harwood’s most desirable residential settings.
