Full Details for 2 Bedroom Terraced for sale in Wigan, WN1 :

For many, the dream of living with the peace and serenity which accompanies water-side living is the ultimate aspiration. For those individuals, this quaint two bed end-terraced cottage will undoubtedly appeal, idyllically situated overlooking a body of water known locally as 'The Lagoon', creating a real sense of tranquillity at an affordable price, which means that, for one fortunate buyer, the dream could soon become a reality.Lakeside Cottages date as far back as 1857, forming part of the Mayflower conservation area on the pretty semi-rural border of Haigh and Standish, designated as an area of specialarchitectural or historical interest and originally constructed as accommodation for the workers within the cotton industry and former bleach works. Today, the picturesque setting has proven consistently desirable by those looking for a haven from the hustle and bustle of daily life, being tucked away along this quiet, tree-lined lane and surrounded by beautiful local countryside. The Leeds Liverpool canal is only a short meander away, and a little further afield, the stunning Haigh Hall Country Park, spanning hundreds of acres and home to Haigh Hall, one of the most beautiful stately homes in the North-West of England, and so one is never without a quiet space in which to take a leisurely stroll to relax away the stresses of the day.Whilst the picturesque setting could convince even the most hardened sceptic that one is in the deepest depths of the countryside, this home is far from isolated, with the bustling village centre of Standish approximately a mile away, providing a host of shops and amenities, as well as excellent schools and transport links via the M6 motorway, proving that having that peaceful life does not necessarily have to mean isolation.The delightful character accommodation brims with both charm and personality, which will become abundantly clear as one enters via the entrance vestibule and proceeds into the 17' lounge, a characterful living space with traditional latched doors, an attractive open fireplace with stone hearth and a spectacular aspect over the water, whilst the equally well proportionedadjoining 15' kitchen/diner is well appointed and fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units in beech with contrasting laminated work surfaces and splash-backs, and equipped with a range of integrated appliances, including electric oven, four ring gas hob with extractor canopy, fridge and freezer.If one ventures up to the first floor, the split-level landing area provides access to the two bedrooms, both of which are located to the front of the property to take advantage of the pretty lake-side views, and a good-sized bathroom, fitted with a four piece suite in classic white, comprising of WC, pedestal wash hand basin, panelled bath and separate shower cubicle.Externally, there is a small enclosed courtyard to the rear with brick-built storage shed, and beyond an elevated lawned garden area bordering open countryside. Available with the benefit of no onward chain, we would highly recommend an internal inspection of this delightful home.
