Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached stone cottage presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with substantial renovation potential. Set against the backdrop of breathtaking panoramic views of Rivington, this residence is nestled in the desirable and tranquil Montcliffe area of Horwich. The home's layout comprises an entrance lobby that leads into a hallway, followed by three well-sized reception areas—a sitting room, dining room, and a versatile study or additional reception space. The fitted kitchen provides functional space for cooking and can be modernized to suit contemporary tastes. The three bedrooms are generously proportioned, while the bathroom offers essential amenities. Notable features include double glazing and gas central heating, which contribute to comfort while allowing for personal updates. With gardens at both the front and rear, this property boasts stunning rural vistas that enhance its charm. The rear garden also includes a single detached garage, providing off-road parking—an attractive feature in this semi-rural setting. The location itself is a significant asset. Just a short drive from central Horwich, residents will find an array of local amenities including shops, restaurants, and pubs. Furthermore, access to public transport via Blackrod and Horwich Parkway train stations, as well as proximity to the M61 motorway and Middlebrook Retail Park, ensures convenient commuting options. The area is also home to several reputable schools such as Bolton School and Rivington & Blackrod High School. Cottages like this one—offering both character and exceptional views—are rarely available on the market. This property not only invites you to personalize it to your liking but also represents an excellent investment in a sought-after neighborhood known for its natural beauty and community spirit.
