Stunning stone cottage tucked away in peaceful rural location with canal-side aspect
Enviably tucked away in a little-known & idyllic rural setting in the highly coveted area of Haigh & enjoying stunning views across open fields to the front, plus a peaceful canal-side aspect at the rear - this beautifully presented and much improved stone cottage offers buyers the rare opportunity to purchase something that perfectly balances the calming rural feel of living in the country, whilst still being just a short drive to both the M6 & M61 motorways, plus the village of Standish & Wigan Town Centre itself. Canal Row is a small collection of pretty, stone cottages that rarely come on the market & are ideally situated just off the top of Red Rock, in Haigh. Number 3 Canal Row is impeccably presented throughout, plus is brimming with numerous charming period features, such as timber beams, exposed stone feature walls & period fireplaces; all of which are complimented perfectly by the home’s more modern touches. The property is arranged over two floors and because of the loft conversion plus the spacious conservatory & extension, the home now provides a sizeable 1312 square feet of living space.
Interestingly, our clients have added significantly to the property over recent years too, installing a sleek, high spec fitted kitchen, adding new flooring throughout the ground floor, replacing all the windows & rebuilding the superb rear sun room with insulated roof. The result is a stunning living space which comprises in brief of; a front porch, luxury fitted kitchen with quartz worktops, central island unit, trendy herringbone floor & Belfast sink, plus a range of quality integrated appliances. To the rear is a cosy lounge with smart log burner & beautiful exposed stone wall, which in turn flows nicely into the rear extension with new roof lantern & updated wc / cloaks, plus the newly built rear sun room with insulated roof & composite tiles. Upstairs there are two bedrooms, with the master boasting a beamed and vaulted ceiling & original rustic doors. The luxury fitted principal bathroom suite is a stunning addition to the home & boasts an elegant free standing, roll top bath. The useful loft room complete the upstairs arrangement. Externally the home boasts a very spacious overall plot which from front to back is in excess of 280ft in length. There is off road parking to the front and rear with far reaching views across open countryside whilst the rear provides a private garden with patio area & detached garage. Beyond this is an additional garden with lovely summer house & decked patio which backs directly onto the Leeds-Liverpool Canal & enjoys a westerly facing aspect and therefore lots of late summer sun. This idyllic waterside aspect here is a key feature of these highly desirable properties. The property is warmed by LPG & the boiler was only installed around 4 years ago. Early viewings are essential on this stunning period cottage. FREEHOLD.
