Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Wigan, WN6 :
This truly impressive four bed executive detached residence is the epitome of the archetypal family home, and even its substantial facade cannot do justice to the superbly proportioned accommodation which its generous floor plan affords, offering in excess of 2,085 square feet of immaculately maintained living spaces.
The property is situated on the periphery of this highly regarded residential development of varying styles of executive homes, and what makes this home so special is as much about the outside space as its interior, with a simply beautiful plot which affords fabulous gardens, as well as an open aspect to the rear, which provides an excellent degree of privacy and seclusion. Located in the thriving village of Standish, the area has demonstrated itself to be a consistent attraction to prospective buyers, its strong sense of community, and all that it is able to offer its inhabitants, being a particularly strong pull for those looking for a location to raise their family. At its heart, the beautiful Parish Church of St. Wilfrid, the only Grade I listed building within Wigan, as well as other delightful landmarks such as a late medieval cross and stone stocks in the market place, whilst the bustling village centre provides a host of local shops and amenities, including a post office, two banks and three supermarkets. When one is craving something more vibrant still, Wigan town centre is only a short distance away with its diverse range of high street stores, trendy bars and eclectic eateries, which will be perfect for those who enjoy a hectic social calendar. The area boasts a number of highly regarded schools at both primary and secondary level, whilst the older members of the family are also well catered for, with close proximity to the M6 motorway ensuring major commercial centres such as Manchester, Liverpool and Preston are within a reasonable commute.
The property itself is a real gem, with a lovely warm and inviting ambiance, and a real homely feel; this really is a family home, something which cannot be replicated through decor, fixtures or fittings, instead being an enviable quality which is ingrained within its make-up. The accommodation has been fastidiously maintained and cared for throughout our client’s substantial tenure, which dates back to its construction and is a glowing endorsement of its fabulous credentials as a long-term home in which to raise a family, and is presented to a simply impeccable standard, with a thoughtfully laid-out floor plan which does much to accentuate the feeling of space, all of which will become immediately apparent as soon as one enters the delightful reception hallway, with its wonderfully grand staircase to the first floor and convenient cloakroom/WC, a must in any family home.
One proceeds through into the vast 20’ lounge, which affords a lovely dual aspect and an abundance of natural light, whilst the feature fireplace with its inset coal-effect living flame gas fire infuses a cosy atmosphere, impressive considering the room’s generous proportions. The second reception room is currently utilised as a rather grand 13’ 11” dining room complete with built-in display furniture, which provides a perfect space for entertaining during those intimate dinner parties, perhaps stepping through the patio doors into the conservatory to admire the delightful aspect over the rear garden with an after-dinner cocktail or two. The dining room’s generous size means that this could be utilised for a number of purposes, such as a second sitting room, particularly given that the 16’ kitchen with its separate 10’ utility room is comfortably large enough to accommodate a dining suite, with uPVC double glazed French doors opening directly onto the garden; fitted with a comprehensive range of Oak-effect wall and base units, with contrasting laminated work surfaces and equipped with an integrated electric double oven and four ring gas hob with extractor hood.
If one ventures up to the first floor via the beautiful turning staircase, the attractive landing provides access to the four well proportioned bedrooms, all of which are bright and appealing, and three of which feature a range of built-in furniture, with the master bedroom suite further benefitting from a concealed three piece en-suite shower room. The remainder of the family, however, are well catered for with the main family bathroom, which completes the accommodation, which is fitted with a three piece suite, comprising of vanity wash hand basin, close coupled WC and panelled bath with overhead electric shower.
Externally, the property occupies an enviable position, set well back from the road with swathes of lawn and a substantial driveway which provides off-road parking facilities for a number of vehicles, as well as access to the attached double garage with electric up-and-over door, which could be converted or extended over to provide additional living accommodation, if so required, and subject to the usual consents. The stunning gardens re a horticultural delight, and sure to score highly with any green-fingered buyers, with the rear being particularly private and well screened, and with a gorgeous patio area with built-in brick-built barbeque, which will be extremely useful in the summer months. We would highly recommend an internal inspection of this wonderful family home
