Description

This three-bedroom end-terraced property, located in a sought-after residential area of Chorley, offers a spacious layout with significant renovation potential. The home retains several original features that imbue it with character, setting the stage for modernisation to create an ideal family dwelling or a lucrative investment opportunity. Its convenient location within walking distance of local amenities, schools, and transport links—including Chorley train station and access to the M6 and M61—enhances its appeal for families and commuters alike. Entering the property, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway leading to an impressive staircase adorned with the original Georgian banister. To your left is a generously sized lounge featuring a central fireplace and large front-facing window. This space seamlessly connects to the dining room through double doors, which also boasts a fireplace and ample dining space. The kitchen/diner is spacious, providing plenty of storage and room for freestanding appliances as well as an additional dining table. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room with a sink for added convenience. A bright sunroom at the back of the house benefits from a large skylight and wood-burning stove, providing direct access to the garden. A notable highlight is the cellar, which spans the full footprint of the house. While it requires renovation, this area presents great potential for additional living accommodations due to its internal and external access. On the first floor, there are three well-sized bedrooms; one bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe/dressing area while the master bedroom is particularly spacious with opportunities for reconfiguration into two separate rooms if desired. The four-piece family bathroom completes this level. The corner plot enhances outdoor space, featuring ample on-street parking alongside a spacious garden laid with quality York stone and complete with double gated access. Previous planning approval for conversion into two self-contained flats adds considerable value; although it has lapsed, resubmission may be looked upon favourably by local authorities—providing further flexibility for future development.
