Property description
Available with the benefit of no onward chain, this imposing five bed modern detached residence can boast arguably the most impressive views in the area from the rear. A bold statement perhaps, considering the beautiful scenery the area has to offer, yet one gaze from this substantial property’s rear garden will surely be enough to confirm this opinion, with simply breath-taking, uninterrupted views over adjoining countryside, stretching as far as Billinge Hill and Ashurst Beacon. The property rests in a private position in the corner of this small, exclusive cul-de-sac, located just off Almond Brook Road, and whilst the exceptional views to the rear might give the impression of rural seclusion, the property is only within a few minutes walk of the centre of Standish village, with its host of local shops and amenities, whilst a few minutes drive away is the bustling town of Wigan, when one is looking for something more vibrant still, with its abundance of high street stores, trendy bars and restaurants. Of particular note is the property’s excellent motorway links, with Junction 27 of the M6 motorway less than one mile away, ensuring major commercial centres such as Manchester, Liverpool and Preston, are all within a reasonable commute, whilst for the younger members of the family, excellent local schooling at both primary and secondary levels, are all within a short walk.
This impressive home was constructed by Dorbcrest Homes, a quality builder of new homes renowned for their attention to detail and exceptional standards of finish, and boasts an expansive and flowing layout, with immaculately presented accommodation thoughtfully arranged over three floors to fulfil its maximum potential, entering via a welcoming reception hallway with a handy cloakroom/WC – always useful when one has small children at home - and wood-effect Karndene flooring which extends throughout the ground floor, linking the rooms perfectly. Double doors lead through to the comfortable 17’ lounge, which does a great job of feeling cosy, despite its impressive proportions, with a feature fireplace creating an attractive focal point, with a decorative surround and inset living flame gas fire, and a double glazed box bay window to the front elevation. Also located to the front of the property is a useful study, complete with built-in desk and storage cupboards, which will be ideal for those requiring some space to work from home. Accessible from the kitchen, the dining room is situated to the rear of the property, providing an ideal space for the family to gather together over dinner to discuss their respective days in the office or at school, whilst the French doors give a pleasant aspect over the rear garden, as well as those spectacular views beyond. The kitchen, situated next door, is similarly spoiled, with an exceptional view and flooded with natural light via two double glazed windows to the rear. This good-sized space is comprehensively fitted with a range of wall and base units in white, with contrasting laminated work surfaces and equipped with a range of integrated appliances including a Range-style cooker with overhead extractor canopy, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine.
To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which share a ‘Jack & Jill’ en-suite shower room (with electric shower) whilst there is also a smart family bathroom, fitted with a three piece suite in classic white, comprising of pedestal wash hand basin, WC and panelled bath with overhead shower. On the second floor, a large 13’ landing provides potential for a private lounge area in which to relax away the stresses of the day, or alternatively would make an ideal office area, whilst the truly stunning master bedroom suite provides a real haven of calm. Unashamedly luxurious in terms of its proportions, this 23’ x 18’ space has a real feeling of opulence, and enjoys a delightful dual aspect to both the front and rear. The piece de resistance is a marvellous en-suite bathroom, fitted with a four piece suite comprising of pedestal wash hand basin, WC, corner bath and separate shower cubicle.
Externally, a double-width driveway provides ample off-road parking for up to four cars, as well as access to the detached double garage with electronic doors, whilst there are pretty gardens to the front and rear, the rear being wonderfully private and with a paved patio providing a perfect spot to enjoy those frequent Summer barbeques whilst admiring those stunning views. Internal inspection of this fabulous home is highly recommended.
