Viewing Advised
Situated in the semi-rural surroundings of Wrightington, close to the popular village of Shevington and the town of Standish, this semi detached bungalow offers an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a property with considerable potential for improvement.
Occupying a generous plot with established gardens and a substantial driveway, the home provides well-proportioned living space, two bedrooms, separate reception rooms and a family bathroom. Although requiring extensive renovation and modernisation throughout, the property offers an appealing opportunity for purchasers looking to create a home to their own specifications.
The property is approached via a driveway providing off-road parking, with the surrounding greenery offering a pleasant outlook. Internally, the entrance hallway provides access to the main rooms, including a spacious lounge with a large window overlooking the front.
The room benefits from generous proportions and natural light, providing an excellent starting point for a redesigned living space. With decorative and refurbishment works required, buyers have the opportunity to introduce their own style and finishes.
A separate dining room offers additional living space, suitable for family meals or entertaining. Its position adjoining the kitchen provides a practical arrangement, with potential to explore alternative configurations, subject to any necessary permissions and structural considerations. The kitchen itself requires comprehensive refurbishment, presenting an opportunity to install new cabinetry, work surfaces and appliances to suit individual preferences.
The bungalow offers two bedrooms, both providing comfortable proportions and flexibility for different household requirements. Each room would benefit from renovation and decorative attention, allowing prospective buyers to put their own stamp on the interiors.
The family bathroom is fitted with a bath, wash basin and WC, providing an existing layout that could be updated with contemporary fittings and finishes.
Externally, the property occupies a substantial plot with mature trees, established shrubs and areas of overgrown vegetation. The outdoor space provides considerable scope for landscaping and improvement, with the potential to create attractive lawned areas, planting borders and outdoor seating spaces.
The driveway offers useful off-road parking, while the surrounding countryside contributes to the property's semi-rural appeal.
The location offers a balance of countryside surroundings and access to everyday amenities. Nearby Shevington provides local convenience stores, traditional pubs, cafes and community facilities, while Standish offers a wider selection of supermarkets, independent shops, restaurants, healthcare services and leisure amenities.
Wigan town centre is also accessible, providing additional shopping facilities, entertainment venues and essential services. The nearby towns of Chorley and Skelmersdale offer further amenities and employment opportunities.
Families have access to several schools in the surrounding area, including St Joseph's Catholic Primary School in Wrightington, Shevington Vale Primary School and Wrightington Mossy Lea Primary School. Secondary education options include Standish Community High School and Shevington High School, providing a choice of educational facilities within reach of the property.
For outdoor recreation, the surrounding countryside offers a variety of walking routes, open fields and attractive rural scenery. Nearby Fairy Glen in Appley Bridge is a popular woodland destination, featuring scenic pathways, streams and natural surroundings.
Worthington Lakes Country Park provides further opportunities for walking and enjoying wildlife, while Haigh Woodland Park offers extensive woodland trails, recreational facilities and family attractions. The Leeds and Liverpool Canal also provides picturesque towpaths for walking and cycling.
Transport connections are convenient, with Appley Bridge railway station offering services towards Wigan, Southport and Manchester. Gathurst railway station provides an additional option for rail travel, while local bus services connect the surrounding villages with Wigan and neighbouring towns.
The nearby M6 motorway, accessible via Junction 27, provides road connections towards Preston, Warrington, Manchester and the wider North West, with the A49 and A5209 offering further local routes.
Offering generous outdoor space, flexible single-storey living and significant potential for transformation, this detached bungalow presents an appealing opportunity for buyers seeking a renovation project. Its semi-rural setting, convenient access to local amenities and strong transport connections make it an attractive prospect for those looking to create a personalised home in an established location.
