3 Bedrooms Semi-detached house for sale in School House Cottage, St. Johns Road, Lostock BL6 | £ 389,950

Property Description

Dating from circa 1808 is this beautiful former school which has been thoughtfully and tastefully refurbished to offer the best of modern comforts whilst retaining features and decorative flair true to its heritage. The family home is beautiful throughout and offers the type of luxury fittings and fixtures that are only infrequently found on the open market.

Situated in Chew Moor village, the stunning home is ideally placed for easy access to Lostock train station (which serves Manchester and Preston), the motorway network via the M61, popular state and private schools and nurseries, shops, sports clubs and the beautiful local countryside.

No expense has been spared in the regeneration and refurbishment of the property: There is a Crown Imperial fitted kitchen with granite work surfaces which extend to a central island and breakfast bar, luxury Laura Ashley en suite bathroom suite complete with roll top/claw foot bath and double shower enclosure, Porcelanosa family bathroom suite and contemporary gas fired “poly pipe” underfloor heating system with individual room thermostats. The property retains much of the period charm with reclaimed internal doors, exposed and varnished floorboards, beamed ceilings etc. It is worth noting that the property was four bedrooms but our clients have modified it to three bedrooms and created a dressing room off the master bedroom. Subject to all appropriate regulations and permissions, it would be relatively straightforward to return it to the four bedroom configuration.

The accommodation on offer briefly comprises; entrance hallway, lounge, sitting room, large luxury fitted kitchen which is open plan to the dining/family room, utility room, guest wc, landing, master suite with dressing room and stunning four piece en suite bathroom, two additional good size bedrooms and a four piece family bathroom suite with separate shower enclosure. There is gated off road parking, and a fantastic family friendly rear garden with lawn and patio areas.

In our opinion all that is on offer can only be fully appreciated via a personal inspection which can be arranged via an advanced appointment with Cardwells Estate Agents Bolton on or via email:
