Description

The Old Battery House is a distinctive family residence nestled on approximately 1.5 acres of private land, situated in the charming rural village of Haigh, just two miles from Wigan town centre. This unique property features substantial outbuildings totaling around 3,200 sq ft, offering significant redevelopment potential for those looking to invest. Originally built in the late 19th century as part of the Haigh Estate, this stone and slate constructed home has been designed with spacious family living in mind and provides a flexible layout across two floors. Set within a gated plot bordered by mature woodland, the residence boasts five bedrooms and multiple living areas that exude character, including a grand entrance hall and a principal lounge with an impressive fireplace. The layout includes both formal and informal dining spaces, as well as utility facilities that can be enhanced or reconfigured based on modern needs. The outbuildings present an exciting opportunity for potential buyers; previous planning permissions have been granted for various redevelopment projects, including residential conversions which could further add value to the property. Given its proximity to transport links connecting to Manchester and Liverpool and the neighboring Haigh Hall Country Park's amenities, this property holds immense promise for renovation aficionados or investors seeking to capitalize on its prime location.
